    Out of the park.

    Sivakarthikeyan and Sai Pallavi deliver outstanding performances, elevating this cinematic experience. Undoubtedly, this film stands as one of the most emotionally resonant and profound works of its kind, defying conventional roles and storytelling. Rajkumar Periasamy's direction masterfully navigates a complex subject, presenting it in a manner that is both accessible and profound. The film's cinematography, direction, and performances are nothing short of brilliant, making it a must-watch for cinephiles. The characters linger in the mind long after the credits roll, prompting viewers to contemplate the lives of army officers. This soul-stirring film challenges viewers to reevaluate their perspectives on life and the sacrifices made by those who serve in the military. It is a cinematic experience that will leave a lasting impression, inspiring viewers to reflect on the human condition and the complexities of war.

    One of the best in recent years

    "Amaran" is a poignant tribute to the unsung heroes of our country's armed forces. When a real-life hero's story is told, it's often more unbelievable and awe-inspiring than fictional ones. This film is a memoir of Maj. Mukund Varadarajan, a martyr whose love story with his fiancée, beautifully portrayed by Sai Pallavi, is heart-wrenching. Her emotional depth and sincerity are phenomenal, making the audience feel the pain and guilt from the start. Sivakarthikeyan shines as the charismatic Maj. Mukund, bringing his story to life with relatable patriotism, love, and revenge. The film humanizes the heroes of our forces, making it a must-watch for kids and a fantastic tribute to the brave men and women who serve our country. Jai Hind🇮🇳

    Love and authenticity

    Amaran is a really well-made emotional-action drama without turning it into massy flick.

    The performer in Sivakarthikeyan, who played Major Mukund, comes out all guns blazing. Hats off to that.

    Sai Pallavi, who played Indu, is a master of invoking emotions. Pure outburst of childlike happiness on seeing Mukund and his success. She is the lifeline of this film. The character is so well portrayed that it makes you yearn for a partner with such love, kindness, and emotions towards you.

    The film succeeds in being as authentic and realistic as possible. Wish the film used subtitles instead of language translation for non Tamil dialogues at all places instead of just few.

    Beautiful biopic with so much emotion

    "Amaran" The hype created for this movie turned out to be a true emotion. Amazing direction, each and every actors showcased their 100% in acting. Actor sivakarthikeyan's another side of acting is unraveled in an extraordinary way. Nevertheless with the beautiful grace and elegant acting , Sai Pallavi just did justice to the character. Amaran is packed with so much emotion, love and action just at the right amount. Salute to the real hero Major Mukund Varadarajan, You will always be remembered Sir. Through this beautiful movie a true hero is revealed. Not to forget mentioning about the "Iron Lady" Indhu Rebecca Varghese, (A true inspiration). Music is phenomenal, GV Prakash has nailed the songs and BGM. To conclude, This movie really created an impact on me, and I'm sure it will to everyone. "AMARAN" will always have a special place in my heart.
