Nadunisi Naaygal

If you are fond of watching Psychopath thrillers like 'Psycho' or 'Kiss the Girls' or 'Silence Of the Lambs', then you can watch them all in just 2 hrs here in this 'Nadunisi'!!!..There is nothing new can be seen other than what had been seen from these blockbusters.

Movie starts with a self narration and ends with a psychiatrist's advice and an obligation to the society.

We have to really appreciate the lead actor 'Veera' for his wonderful acting..but sometimes his overacting sequences make the people to yawn and laugh!! And of course the courageous step to make a movie without any background music score - is highly appreciated!.

In a few words - the movie is full of plain old 'MPD' craps with usual Kidnap-Kill scenes and there is no other new adventure to talk about!!

Its a daring attempt by GVM and it is well scripted thriller. It may be an inspiration or something else but this is fresh and its all the audience want. Don't know why many criticize this movie. Veera is amazing; backbone of the movie. Rest of them did complete justice to their role. If you don't like the genre, don't criticize the movie for it! as simple as that!! People need to have a broad mind in order to see this movie. If you appreciate Sigappu Rojaakal, then this movie is for you.

Dark cinematography scores well for the movie.

Note: Just wanna share the moments Tamizh audience missed. The epic one being Anbe Sivam.

There was so much hype about this movie and I was pretty encouraged by the fact that it was directed by Gautam Menon, a director who has show that he can be in a different league in Tamil movies.

However, his attempt at a psycho killer movie is awful to say the least. The screenplay is so poor and the first half is especially bad. There is no background music or songs in this film that ran for quite a long time, in excess of 2.5 hours, I think.

When psycho movies like this are attempted, the lead character playing the psycho needs to be able to pull off the rule with great gusto. The new face who took on this role in this movie is awful. His attempts at conveying his psychopathic feelings are not at all convincing. In fact, it is quite annoying to watch.

The twist in the movie is so weak that it was largely unnoticed by the crowd. Several people started to make fun of the movie when it lost speed. The only highlight of the movie is Sameera Reddy's performance. She probably has about a 30 minute role in the movie and does well although it doesn't even nearly make up for the other inadequacies in the movie.

In conclusion, this is just a marketing driven hype that will probably run it's course in the box office and do well in terms of revenue. However, you will be pretty disappointed if you spent your money on this movie. Don't disappointingly say "I should have trusted that IMDb review" after watching it.

Every bold work which comes ahead of time(a time where we fail to identify or accept the existence of acute evils like Child Molestation in the society) goes through some level of brutality – an unfair response . And Nadunisi Naigal is no exception.

As a director, Gautham Vasudev Menon has handled your subject with a lot of responsibility. Most of the times, we find it difficult to vocalize our thoughts , because it takes some time to grapple with reality. It is like going through a phase of Cognitive Dissonance. Because most of the times a "Yes" does not mean a Yes and a "No" does not mean a No. And all that it takes is some level of empathy towards the subject and a deeper understanding of our own opinion.

Veera Bahu who plays the role of a moral imbecile is an interesting find . The onus on Veera is obvious who is literally in almost every frame .His deep voice and delivery in the latter part of the movie deserves a special mention. Sameera has proved to be a natural actor and she has managed to grapple with the toughness the role demands. Swapna Abraham who has shouldered a bold role is beautiful , charming and deserving. She is definitely a winner.

Nadunisi Naigal as a movie cannot be liked or disliked. Nadunisi Naigal is an experience.

Kudos to your true grit Gautham !!!

I was quite surprised to hear a number of negative reviews when the movie came out but I wanted to see for myself and decide. It proved a good decision as the movie delivered. It achieved exactly what it wanted to achieve. Gautham Menon has proved time and time again that he is a great story teller and an crisp screenplay writer. Child abuse is a tough subject to handle especially in Kollywood and he had handled it with great aplomb. The lead Veera comes out of this movie with huge credit. He has handled it so well and not to mention the bold career choice for his breakthrough movie. Manoj Paramahamsa deserves special credit for his cinematography and excellent many close ups . This movie turns in to a thriller after first half and keeps the audience at the edge of their seats. Everybody should pay full price to watch this movie. Kudos to Menon and the producers for their support to bring a controversial subject to Kollywood. It is kind of an awareness movie too and it delivers on all cylinders.
