Maareesan, starring Fahadh Faasil and Vadivelu in the lead roles, was released in theatres on July 25, 2025. The pre-release promotions mostly hinted at a buddy road movie vibe. The film received mostly positive critical reception and audience response, reflected in its IMDb rating of 8.2 out of 10. In its first four days, Maareesan managed to gross Inr 4.51 crores, resulting in a net collection of 3.83 crores from the Indian domestic market. Did it deserve a better opening weekend? And should you shell out your money to boost its numbers?

Maareesan’s Misses: What Fell Flat

Let’s start with the negatives. The first half is a slow burn, and at times, it has a lot of lag. Then there are the plot holes and the portrayal of police incompetence. The Tamil Nadu police are not as incompetent as shown in the film. But the story demands that level of incompetence.

Almost every single one of us has dreams and hopes for the future. If you’re young, you might have a dream career. If you’re employed, you may dream of retirement. But what if your dream is to become a cab driver? Fahadh Faasil, the versatile and iconic South Indian actor who predominantly works in Mollywood films, revealed his retirement plans in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter India as part of the promotional campaign for his film Maareesan, which was released today.

He disclosed his retirement plans only after the interviewer asked him about his idea of becoming an Uber driver in Barcelona. Fahadh responded, “Ya ya, of course.” The interviewer was persistent and wanted to know the specifics. So Fahadh explained his plan: “No, I think it’ll only happen after people are done with me here, you know?” But...

Maareesan is set to release this week and marks the reunion of Fahadh Faasil and Vadivelu after their collaboration in the 2023 political drama Maamannan. However, unlike their previous outing, Maareesan is not a political film. This time, the story unfolds as a road movie. In an interview with OTTPlay, director Sudheesh Sankar revealed that while the first half plays out like a thriller, the second half will take the audience by complete surprise. He also noted that Vadivelu will be seen in a role unlike anything he has done before.

The idea of bringing Fahadh Faasil and Vadivelu together for a film like this, the director revealed, came only after watching Maamannan. In that sense, Maamannan acted as a catalyst for Maareesan. As for the title, there’s an interesting story behind it, too. The name Maareesan is drawn from the Hindu epic Ramayan.

The makers of the upcoming Tamil horror-comedy film ‘Conjuring Kannapan’ have dropped its latest track ‘Bakkunu Suthureney Aiyo Aiyo’. Composed and sung by Yuvan Shankar Raja, the track is comedically amusing yet groovy, and perfectly captures the tone of the movie, giving off a very danceable party melody vibe.

Yuvan’s own singing is very non-serious, and in an upbeat way it is almost like a cry to run away. The song contrasts itself in the most unique way, and is driven mostly by rhythm and groove, with the melody kicking in very late.

The song primarily is like a mixture of folk, classical, pop, electronic, film music, and even some hip-hop, though not in the typical way. There is no outright rapping or anything like that, rather it is a lot of spoken word with delivery aimed like rapping, so there are some tonal similarities to hip-hop.
