It was pretty surreal to watch a romantic-drama like #SaptasagaradaacheEllo in a packed house at PVR Chennai, and witness the audience give an ovation at the end. SSE is one of those rare, stunning piece of cinema where you "feel" the movie: you feel the love, the anguish..(1/2)

The Blue Satta Maaran review of #PonniyanSelvan is ridiculous. Of course, one can understand people liking/disliking any film that's created but this is a proper example of vanmam. He's actually questioning the source material and Vairamuthu being omitted. 1/3.

Somewhat poetic that the year when Kamal Haasan “reclaimed” his status with Vikram, is when Mani Ratnam also does. Two 80s OGs dishing out arguably the 2 biggest successes of the year. #PonniyinSelvan is a cinematic achievement and a tribute to the art form in all its totality.

#PonniyinSelvan2 is an absolute masterpiece. It's cinematic poetry that focuses on drama driven by emotion. Mani Ratnam does what Kubrick did with Stephen King's Shining - deviates from the source, and yet delivers something that will stand the test of times.
