Paruthiveeran
came as a whiff of fresh air at a time when
the film industry was churning out vacuous
movies. This film was bold attempt and a trendsetter
in its own way. Based on a real-life incident,
Paruthiveeran was a perfect launchpad for
Karthi, son of actor Sivakumar and brother
of Surya.
It is worth mentioning here that this movie
made it to many international film festivals,
which made others notice the Tamil film industry.
Paruthiveeran, a critically acclaimed movie,
was also a commercial success and is marching
towards 300 days.
It has been a trend for
long to name Hollywood movies being dubbed
in Tamil with titles of Tamil hit films.
The famous Hollywood film, 300, which was
dubbed in Tamil was also renamed 300 Paruthiveerargal
to attract more crowd. But with Paruthiveeran
reaching 300 days looks like the prophecy
has come true. |
