Kaaviya Thalaivan

Kaviyathalaivan - A Very different kinda movie!! The storyline is not the usual romance based type! Hats off to Vasanthabalan for trying this...! It is like a modern version of an art film! The story is about Koothu- actors/dancers in pre-independence era. Nassar is the lead of a Koothu team. Prithviraj and Sidharth join in at a very young age! Sidharth by virtue of better acting abilities and Out-Of-The-Box-Thinking gets the lead roles and the girls! Prithviraj is jealous... The story revolves around their lives and emotions... HATS OFF TO SIDHARTH! I loved his expressions! I am not sure if he learnt classical dance for the grace in his dance moves. It would have been a treat had Sidharth also acted one role as a female character (As a part of the Koothu shows)! Prithviraj had done a decent job! But Sidharth stole the show!! & Vedhicka (Ganakokilam Vadivambal) had also danced very well... I was hoping for a better role for Kuyili... She could have been used as a Koothu dancer too!! A.R.Rahman could not have made the background scores any better... The music just perfectly suited the movie in every way!! The movie could have have been slightly shorter... But I have no cribs about that!! I rate this movie 3.5 out of 5 but recommend it as a movie worth watching!!

the movie about two legends in Tamil cinema.the directors penned the story with some imagination.story and screen play very good ,art work is impressive,all actors done their job well,extremely new path cinema in industry,cheers to director and team .after the movie releasing i read several reviews from fans ,all are praising the movie ,but at the same time some critics spoil the movie name with their review(ONLY PRAISING MASS STARS MOVIE ONLY) .good word of mouth from the audience thrash the all barriers and lead to success . its not like normal movie with fight ,villain ,heroism ,songs, track comedy,hero win at last.my best wishes to all of them those who are participating in the movie.effort never fails,DO NOT WORRY ABOUT REVIEWS.

Though I hardly miss to watch any movie no matter how good/bad they are, this is my first review in IMDb and the honor goes to Kaaviyathalaivan.

One reason why one should watch the movie - It's a period movie and it's about "Kootthu" theater artists' lives and how some of them become freedom fighters in the process. Cheers for making it light and yet interesting that the whole audience sit through peacefully and feel contended while leaving the screen. I never felt boring at any point of the movie.

Nasser, Ponvannan, Siddharth, Prithviraj, Thambi Ramaiah... the cast made it even more wonderful to watch.

Heard the songs before watching the movie and I wasn't really impressed, but I fell in love with couple of songs after watching them in the big screen. I loved the choreography of Aye Mr Minor song - Well done Anaika Soti.

Watch it, for it's one of its kind.

Just watched "Kaaviya Thalaivan". Once again Vasantha balan has given a different and a good film. This film is really something which doesn't go well with the commercial audience. But Vasantha balan has given this in an engaging manner. A different movie which brings the pre-independence era and the drama troops lively on the screen. This film slightly reminds me of the "Sivaji ganesan" starrer yesteryear blockbuster film "Rajapart Rangadurai".

Positives:- Right from the title, Siddarth and Prithviraj steals the show. This is the best performance of Siddarth till date. And my favourite of the film is the Cunning and evil character of Prithviraj. Even though Prithviraj has done similar roles in the past in Mollywood, he shows lots of maturity in this film. Everyone has done their job in a perfect manner. Nassar, Tambi ramaiah, Ponvannan, singampuli, Vedhika and the list of characters has given justice to their role. Music:- AR.Rahman's music adds a feather to this movie. He has produced a different album with hummable numbers, Aye Mr.Minor, Vanga makka and My fav. Yaarumilla song and the BGM suits the period of the film. Negatives:- The character of the Princess is mischievous but the actress doesn't looks promising this movie. Her smile and performance was really irritating for me. The scenes are almost predictable.

Threats:- While I was in awe of appreciation during the end as I do for every movie I feel good, I noticed that I was the only person left in the Theatre as everyone left early without watching the full movie.

Verdict:- Leave the usual masala aspects aside and Watch "Kaaviya Thalaivan" as a different recipe. You will really love this new flavour. My rating:- 10/10 simply for the efforts and execution
