Aadhaar

Literally had zero expectations. But Aadhaar was the biggest surprise of the year. It s been a while since I have come out of a theatre fully satisfied and Aadhaar was definitely that. A movie that deserves to be watched in theatres with a group of friends or even family. And I was really waiting for a movie like this, to watch in theater. After a long time i heard burst of claps continuously in theatres.. Its Takes you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. Outstanding performance by familiar and unfamiliar faces. Ends in a good note. A perfect family movie. Karunas just rocked it.. Really Good entertainer. Go for it !

Technical department have done their job well and story and screenplay department have made those efforts resulting into a peak level. I really appreciate the writers of this film are. It is not just a usual thriller with a many of emotional contents. I am very satisfied with this film. I would suggest you to go for Aadhaar. It is a brilliant film with a brilliant story from a talented director. This film will be Big success in the coming days just like commercial entertainers. The performance of whole cast was simply superb. Given the brilliant filmmaking & non-linear narrative trick, it could have been a far better entertainer.

The scene and tone are set right from the opening where we see a luxury car is being launched and quickly followed by the introduction of Pachamuthu (Karunaas). This shift in the narrative was so quick to capture the social situation, the class war by encompassing more characters recurring economic crises and injustice in the system. At first, I was expecting something like a tear jerker drama but it was much more. I have to mention that actor Karunas did a good job in Interval sequence, he suffers and suffers, tries to take help by pleading and begging with the cops and constantly fails but doesn't give up. Even at the end his character stays true to the actual reality and not gimmicky. All he is left with is an aadhar card of his wife and you genuinely feel sad as he prays to god which is the only glimmer of hope. It was a good decision to have a message appear on the screen to highlight the helpless who are shipwrecked due to the injustice in the system in the closure. Even the Muslim cop is nothing more than a pawn and his end is tragic after getting his hands dirty. I liked the lady cop scenes and how they stage the accident, the airbag, test-drive and the postmortem. It really placed me to view the inner workings of the system where chaos prevails. The film has minor flaws like the staging of few scenes, i had problems with the song placement, even the baby crying didn't sync with the setting, in few places the acting of the lead felt like an overkill. But in the end, i want to appreciate the intention of the director to make this project despite the limited budget and putting his point forth as a clear reflection of the political, economic, social crisis. I totally recommend everyone to see this movie, do not make hasty presumptions or compare it with other filmmakers style or pattern.

It's so amazing and refreshing to see Tamil movies transcending new heights by experimenting in different genres of movies. In a time where Hindi movies are making utter trash, and Telugu is churning out good movies, but with the same old themes - village, caste, politics etc., its amazing that the Tamil industry changing gears. This is such an attempt, which works very well. Interesting from start to finish with good elements of emotions thrown in. All the actors have done well, be it comedy or the emotional scenes. Well written, well executed, and enjoyable movie. Looking forward to such superb comedy movies again in Tamil. Thanks to Ramnath Palanikumar for breaking the mould.

A glorified tamil thriller movie. The film is particularly targetting the thriller lovers obviously cause of the class subjects you get at that age apart from that this one lacks a captivating story and story telling is pretty much like an excited teen on sugar rush or something. The songs seem to be well mediocre and trash af. Good casting Karunas, Arun pandian acted very well. Fans who keep saying this has gor awesome screenplay and the movie has pays respect to its name are simpletons who has got no exposure on world cinema. I would only recommend this film to a classic Lover. Songs and Cinematography is very Appreciable.
