Batman,
Spiderman and Superman can step
aside - Tamil cinema’s
first official superhero strikes
this Friday. After a long two
year wait, Kanthaswamy is ready
for release and it promises
a spectacle that has never before
been seen in Kollywood. Can
Kanthaswamy revolutionize Kollywood?
Right from the late months of
2007, when its trailer and glitzy
launch set the ball rolling,
Kanthaswamy has been high on
the priority list of Kollywood.
Produced by Kalaipuli S Thanu,
this is Susi Ganesan’s
first really big project and
something that greatly excited
Vikram. What else would have
made him give more than a year
of his time to one movie?
Kanthaswamy is all about black
money, Swiss bank accounts and
one man’s mission to bring
it all back to where it belongs,
India. Yes, it is a crusade
against black money led by Kanthaswamy.
What has been promised is high
octane action that will send
the adrenaline pumping through
your veins. Shot on a lavish
scale in and around locations
spread all over the world, Kanthaswamy
will be a grand visual experience
covering the busy cityscapes
in India to the planes of Mexico.

Well, what is the USP of Kanthaswamy.
The thrilling action scenes, the visual
richness or is it something else?
Of course, it has to be Vikram. The
challenge of multiple get ups in a
movie seems to excite this actor who
loves challenges. We got a glimpse
of what we would be seeing on screen
in the first trailer that was launched,
a trailer that inspired many an article
and discussion. What exactly is he
playing in the movie? An investigative
officer who gets into various guises
to uncover the truth! Well, whatever
it is, one has to admit that watching
Vikram in get ups as different as
superhero, senile man and middle aged
lady is incentive enough to catch
Kanthaswamy in theaters.
There is also Shriya to add to the
viewing experience. In an out-and-out
Vikram movie, she will be the eye
candy, as she had been in many films
before. The actress has gone on record
saying that this is one of the movies
in which she has looked her best.
We will soon find out.
The action, the adrenaline, the Cheeyan
Vikram X factor, multiple get ups
are enough reasons for one to eagerly
await Kanthaswamy. Add to it the musical
score which again has Vikram playing
the lead with a few peppy songs, set
to tune by Devi Sri Prasad, it is
hard to resist what Kanthaswamy has
to offer. Yes, we have been waiting
since 2007 and the wait comes to an
end this Friday. May Kanthaswamy be
worth the wait and more. |
