I think this is by far the most important movie of Tamil cinema for the current generation. While we ve majorly been audience to love n romantic movies since time immemorial,someone had the clarity to show what love is in reality in rural Tamil nadu. I am intrigued at what is going to be the response to a movie that I liked so much for the quality and simplicity of the subject ,the beautiful village setting and cinematography and the characterisation . To have produced a movie like this I would Really like to appreciate Surya n jo, I think you guys are really taking it upon you to give quality movies .Not everyone can do a movie like this .. I really hope this movie does well .. Go well guys...
Meiyazhagan a refreshing tamil movie production amidst all the violence and vulgarity one gets to see in movies today. A story centered around a journey down past memories . Every character etched to perfection. One could really enjoy the realistic, non exaggerated conversations in Thanjavur Tamil throughout the movie. The movie did touch an emotional chord as one could see moist eyes from those who were leaving the movie hall . Meiyazhagan a must watch for those who enjoy simple, realistic movies. The experience equals to relishing a well made Thanjavur Ashoka. Congrats to the entire team for making such a lovely movie.

Five minutes into Meiazhagan, you realize you're in for an aesthetically captivating and simple yet powerful experience. This film explores the fractured bonds of tradition, language, and relationships. One of its greatest achievements is that it doesn't feel like a typical movie. There are lengthy scenes where Karthi's character shares his thoughts and experiences with Aravind Samy, and as an audience, you forget you're watching a film. Instead, you feel like a third person overhearing a deep, raw conversation between two men who live and breathe their emotions.
The characters of Karthi and Aravind Samy are polar opposites, contrasting in every way, yet they grow to complement each other as the story unfolds. Karthi truly shines as one of the best actors of his generation. In a film like this, delivering message-driven dialogues without coming across as preachy is no easy feat. Karthi embodies the character so fully that audiences can't help but love him.
While art films are slowly gaining traction in India, they often fall prey to Western influences, becoming overly complex with heavy metaphors and aesthetic-driven narratives. This can alienate viewers who lack exposure to international content, leaving them confused or disengaged. However, Meiazhagan stands out as a beautifully crafted, simple story that fosters character development not only on-screen but also in its audience.
We missed celebrating Anbe Sivam, a film with a similar essence, but let's not make that mistake again with Meiazhagan. It deserves to be cherished as the masterpiece it is!

Please don't miss this movie in theatres..it's not a movie. It's a life. Just loved it to the core. Awesome movie.
Best of karthi so far. He just mailed it Until this time I just saw all aravind swamy movie as an actor First time I am seeing him as a performer.
All the characters did their best Kudos to director Prem for crafting this awesome movie Music was also good.
Cinematography is a special mention. He just took us to the village and easily connected all characters as so well that even a bus conductor character stands in our mind.
Many movies stand in our mind even after coming out for few days
Meiazhagan is one of them.
Pls go and cherish in theatres!

How often we have an opportunity to reminisce about good times had with people in our lives? People have poured unconditional love on us, whom we relate through blood, could be family friends, long-term neighbors, or maybe a stranger who came to help us out in an adverse situation. Have we ever thought about the little help made such a big impact on our busy lives? Life forces us to navigate through many phases, making these memories fade away while we are crippled by the survival mode life puts us through.
Meiyazhagan is asking us to take a pause and look back and find those people who showered unconditional love expecting nothing in return. Try to find or at least think about those angels who lent you a hand in tough situations. The movie puts you through the same emotional state as Arul Mozhi Varman (Arvind Swamy )goes through in the film.
With a lot of negativity and wicked situations looming around the world, Meiyazhagan comes as fresh breezy air and tells us there are still good people around you, there is still hope, there is still positivity, and still, some unconditional love is present in this world. When you experience such things, don't let it slip away. As human beings, that's the ultimate thing...Seeking LOVE.
