Amaran is a really well-made emotional-action drama without turning it into massy flick.
The performer in Sivakarthikeyan, who played Major Mukund, comes out all guns blazing. Hats off to that.
Sai Pallavi, who played Indu, is a master of invoking emotions. Pure outburst of childlike happiness on seeing Mukund and his success. She is the lifeline of this film. The character is so well portrayed that it makes you yearn for a partner with such love, kindness, and emotions towards you.
The film succeeds in being as authentic and realistic as possible. Wish the film used subtitles instead of language translation for non Tamil dialogues at all places instead of just few.

Growing up in Chennai, South India, I was naturally surrounded by a dedicated movie culture and a passionate fan base. As I got older, I found myself preferring series over movies, as they often capture deeper emotions through multiple seasons. I have watched several North Indian films, such as "Shershaah," "Sita Ramam," and "Mission Majnu." While these films tell the stories of different warriors, they often share similar endings. I still struggle to understand how Indian soldiers are willing to risk their lives to protect us, the citizens of India.
When I learned about a movie being made as a tribute to Indian soldier Major Mukund, I found myself eagerly anticipating its release. The star-studded cast, featuring renowned actor Sivakarthikeyan and actress Sai Pallavi, heightened my excitement. Their performances made me reflect on the brevity of life and the unfairness that some people face. I was moved by the story of Major Mukund and his inspiration to become a soldier. Despite having a family, he never once considered backing down.
As a nation, we should be incredibly thankful for those soldiers who work tirelessly to protect us. I believe school textbooks should focus more on stories like this, as not every soldier gets the chance to have their life depicted in a film.
Now, regarding another warrior, Indhu Rebecca Varghese, played by Sai Pallavi, I found the narration of her character, enhanced by a touch of Malayalam and her beautiful voice, to be incredibly impactful. She's such a sweetheart. Whenever I saw her crying helplessly, I felt an urge to reach out and give her a hug. She consistently supported her partner's career and ambitions and portrayed roles as a loving daughter, supportive partner, dutiful daughter-in-law, and brave mother.
I'm grateful that this story was made into a movie, and I hope she holds it close to her heart. The scene where Indhu learns about Mukund's demise shattered my heart. The way she controlled her emotions and didn't shed a single tear during his funeral was so poignant, especially because he had always told her not to cry in front of others if anything ever happened to him on the battlefield. I got goosebumps seeing the original clips of Major Mukund with his sweet daughter and their loving family.
I'm glad to know that Indhu is living her life as a teacher in Australia. I truly hope that in their next life, they can be together for a longer time. The audience in the theater stayed until the very end, and when the film concluded, there was a thunderous applause that gave me goosebumps. My deepest respect goes to all the Indian soldiers out there. Major Mukund may not be with us, but will continue to live in all of our memories . All hail- Amaran- The Immortal.

"Amaran" The hype created for this movie turned out to be a true emotion. Amazing direction, each and every actors showcased their 100% in acting. Actor sivakarthikeyan's another side of acting is unraveled in an extraordinary way. Nevertheless with the beautiful grace and elegant acting , Sai Pallavi just did justice to the character. Amaran is packed with so much emotion, love and action just at the right amount. Salute to the real hero Major Mukund Varadarajan, You will always be remembered Sir. Through this beautiful movie a true hero is revealed. Not to forget mentioning about the "Iron Lady" Indhu Rebecca Varghese, (A true inspiration). Music is phenomenal, GV Prakash has nailed the songs and BGM. To conclude, This movie really created an impact on me, and I'm sure it will to everyone. "AMARAN" will always have a special place in my heart.

An inspiring true story with you - the bravery of Major Mukund Varadarajan, an Indian Army officer who showed incredible valor during a counterterrorism operation in Jammu and Kashmir. He was posthumously awarded the Ashok Chakra for his heroism. And guess what? His story was brought to life in a movie that's a must-watch! The acting, especially by Sai Pallavi, is phenomenal - it'll leave you emotional and proud! Shiva Karthikeyan totally nailed the character too! Trust me, this movie deserves full marks! Go watch it and be inspired by this true Indian hero!"
The screen play is top notch, it's completely a emotional and patriotic roller coaster. A Must watch movie.
A movie with heart soul connecting with every moment and a soulful journey is amaran. It satisfied all the hype. A biopic of major mukund varadharajan. Oh man he lived his life as legend and Indhu she is a strong hearted woman. Every man' s dream to have a girl like Indhu and every woman dream to have Mukund. So soulful and connecting. If you are in LDR this movie connects u a lot. The romance, action and the fights more suited SK for this role and a heart warming climax which made everyone weep. So so good. SK has turned into a different side and he has started to handle the gun really well. The greatest positive is Sai pallavi, my intution Sai pallavi and sk deserves a national award for this film. So real and touchy. Gv always rocks with his music. And all kudos to the captain of the ship rajkumar periyasamy the director so elegant and simple way of story telling. Please do watch this movie. To be honest a career best film for SK. He may continue to do such films. Please do watch it available in theater.
