The Tamil film ‘Thaai Kizhavi’ led by Radikaa Sarathkumar is set for its theatrical release on February 27.
A special premiere was held on February 25 and early reactions on social media started flowing soon after. Many Twitter users praised the film’s emotional depth, humour, and performances. The premiere show was also attended by the celebs such as Suriya, Jyotika, Shalini, Aishwarya Rajesh, Atharvaa and many more.
One review read, “#ThaaiKizhavi — A true BLOCKBUSTER. An unforgettable blend of emotions and humor. Radhika as Thai Kizhavi is simply divine Absolutely speechless.”
Another user wrote, “When #KamalHaasan himself gives a standing ovation, you know what we are gonna witness! Lady Kamal Radhika’s solid comeback & re-loaded version!”
Strong WOM
The early word-of-mouth has been consistently positive with viewers emphasising the film’s balance of sentiments and comedy. A review noted, “WOM – Positive. Another Quality film from SK productions. “Another cinephile shared, “Emotional and funny at the same time… perfect combo. “A short but impactful comment declared, “National award. “
Director Atlee REACTS
‘Jawan’ director Atlee penned a detailed note. He wrote, “In a world that feels heavy at times, this film felt like hope. Emotional, meaningful, and rooted in the best of human values. Please do experience it in theaters. @realradikaa ma’am #Sivakumarmurugesan @Siva_Kartikeyan hats off mama Congratulations to the entire team for the blockbuster!.”
Last week, veteran actor Kamal Haasan attended a private screening at the Tagore Film Centre. The makers arranged the event exclusively for him.
Captured in a video shared by Radikaa, Kamal gave a big thumbs-up and told the team, “The audiences will say more about this movie, rather than me or the news outlets.”
The screening left the cast and crew overwhelmed. Kamal embraced debutant director Sivakumar Murugesan, commending him for his direction. He then patted Sivakumar and actor-producer Sivakarthikeyan, and said, “Such a good producer and such a magnificent director.”
Radikaa later wrote, “To see him enjoy the film and embrace the team with such warmth… a moment we will treasure forever.”
