Movies after 2006 have become successful only when they contained vulgarity or body exposure. After a long time, a family movie has been made with watchable action scenes, limited song, more dialogues by lead actor, sensible characterisation of each supporting actor. It's an excellent film with social message to audience. More than hand combat, significance of Varma Kalai is shown here. In the selfie scene real Senapati look shown for Indian 2 and in the rest , he wears makeup to avoid getting caught, in different ways. Some of the negative reviewers have brought this up and said make up was not sufficient, which shows lack of understanding from their end for the film. So don't go by negative reviews.
Kamal has acted extremely well. Renuka, Siddharth , Thambi Ramaiah, Manobala, Vivek, Nedumudi Venu all others did justice to their role. Shankar has done very good direction and the extravaganza shown in the film needs to be appreciated. People are trying to find faults in film just to ensure Kamal doesn't end up getting awards at National level. It's a film which audience across ages can enjoy watching together.

Agnisatchi talks about how the husband gives unconditional love to his wife - woman who is sensitive to how things are portayed on screen or in objects or how she doesn't like a child being beaten or how she doesn't like her parents getting insulted. Story is also about how man's parents don't like the daughter in law when she disobeys or gives back answer. Well directed by K Balachander and the lead pair has acted very well. 10/10 it deserves.
The film Thalaivi focuses on journey of Jayalalilthaa in films and politics from 1965 to 1990. It's excellent film made by efforts of entire team. Director, art director, actors and technical team have contributed their best. I hope there is second film where her journey from 1948 to 1964 & journey from 1991 to 2016 is covered and how she respected Janaki and her mother Sandhya is shown more. Arvind Swami has excelled in his potrayal of MGR. Want to point out that Jaya respected MGR Janaki as a father mother figure. Infact Janaki met JJ when JJ met with accident and was recovering and told JJ that she is right successor. This film will create awareness about Jayalalilthaa around the world as well as the North of India. In real life it was JJ behind whom automatic fans followers would come and stand in huge numbers , the way it is shown in films of Rajnikant like Padayappa or Arunachalam or in Shankar's Mudhalvan or Nayak. JJ was always admired and respected. JJ wasn't egoistic. Also one needs to know that JJ acted with Jaishankar, Ravichandran, NTR, ANR from 1965 to 1978 and with MGR she did only 28 films between 1965 and 1973. She had more than 90 hits of the 140 films in her career. Maximum people must watch Tamil version with subtitle to feel the dialogues and situation. Don't go by the fake paid reviews where they are giving 1 star rating as these must be anti India or anti Kangana gang. Watch the film and automatically you will praise it and give 10 stars. Thalaivi is good tribute to Jayalalilthaa Madam and MGR sir.
