Alangu

Alangu is a rugged, emotionally charged action-thriller that thrives on its elemental premise: the unbreakable bond between a man and his dog set against a bleak socio-political backdrop. Directed by S. P. Shakthivel, it unfolds like a survival saga, placing the spotlight firmly on Dharman (Gunanidhi), a tribal youth whose life takes a violent twist when he rescues a stray dog, Kaali.

Alangu is a half-baked attempt to recreate Asuran but lacks its soul, depth, and emotional impact. The story is predictable, offering nothing new, and the excessive violence feels forced rather than meaningful. The pacing is slow, making it hard to stay engaged, and the characters fail to leave a lasting impression. The antagonist is weak, and the background score doesn't elevate the film. The emotional depth that made Asuran powerful is missing here. With no originality or gripping moments, Alangu struggles to hold attention. If you want a compelling rural drama, just rewatch Asuran-this one isn't worth your time at all.

Please watch and enjoy yourself. A nice movie all the characters and artists complements the story and background was superb , well mixed , nicely executed and delivered,

Worth your time .... can't pinpoint any particular artist, but the story is the hero ,grippy and thrilling screenplay keeps you engaged..... music was really good you don't even feel the lagging nor dragging...

Overall a nice movie good and worthy effort from the team got succeeded in entertaining us ,

Another movie to the shelf that speaks the volume of Tamil cinema, thanks to the director and the whole crew for their efforts, obviously they succeeded. Well done and thanks...

Highly engaging thriller gives feel good treatment in the 1st half and offers rollercoaster ride in the 2 nd half. Amazing performance from Dharman.his mother and other characters. The background score is excellent elevates the energy of the film. Cinematography and editing are the strengths of the film. Director Sakthi's strong writing takes the narrative interesting and engaging without any lag.

Notable performances from Kali Venkat and the friends of Dharman. The landscape shown in the movie is fresh and it's been captured with emotions. Kaliamma the dog is performed naturally , not sure how much struggle the crew have undergone to make this successful.
