At the end of it, we see Ammu’s glowing face. She’s the bride-to-be. Directed by Charukesh Sekar, Telugu film Ammu is a familiar story in society but not on screen. Aishwarya Lekshmi plays the titular character, a young woman caught in a violent marriage. If Jasmeet K Reen’s Darlings took the route of satire to lay out the psyche of a woman who undergoes domestic violence, Ammu paints a realistic portrait of it. Circle Inspector Ravindranath (Naveen Chandra) is an upright officer who is capable of showing sensitivity to survivors of sexual violence. He’s a loving and romantic husband who takes his responsibility towards his wife seriously.

KollywoodNayanthara is among the handful of reigning women stars in south Indian film industries, and Kollywood in particular, who enjoy the same level of idolatry as high-grossing male stars.Saradha UAmazon Prime VIdeoA striking scene from Netrikann (2021) that depicts the film’s lead Nayanthara delivering a strong punchline against victim-shaming and sexism was perhaps the first of its kind in Tamil cinema. “Why do you care whether she is opting for an abortion, dressed ‘inappropriately’, if she is nude, or whether she is a good or bad person? Regardless of what she does, it’s her life. Just because you think she is wrong, do you get to do whatever you want?” questions Nayanthara, who is fondly known as Lady Superstar. In a light-hearted sequence from Soodhu Kavvum (2013), protagonist Pagalavan (Bobby Simha), shown as an ardent fan of actor Nayanthara, gets in trouble for installing a statue for her. What...

EntertainmentIn an interview with Sathiyam News, director Karthik Subbaraj says that lines critiquing Nathuram Godse were censored from his recent film ‘Mahaan’, starring Vikram.Tnm StaffCourtesy/SathiyamNewsIn an interview to Sathiyam News, director Karthik Subbaraj opened up about the politics and challenges of making his latest film Mahaan, starring Vikram, and revealed that he had to remove lines on Nathuram Godse, who murdered Gandhi in 1948. The film follows the story of “Gandhi” Mahaan who is forced since childhood to live only by Gandhian principles whether he likes it or not. Subbaraj says in the interview for the show Nerukku Ner that the film is not about “true Gandhians, but about ideological extremism in which a person’s freedom is taken away. The hero’s father only thinks of himself, he doesn’t ask what his son wants but makes him promise that he will live as a Gandhian.” He added...

Film AnalysisIt’s beginning to look as if the director, known for his absurdist comedies, is getting swamped by his confused understanding of politics and the need to fit star actors into the industry mould.Bharathy SingaravelCourtesy/KarthikSubbarajFacebookIt’s been four days since Karthik Subbaraj’s Mahaan, starring Vikram, was released directly on the Over-the-Top platform Amazon Prime Video. But no one seems closer to understanding either the film’s ideological messaging or its tumultuous plot. The hero, named Gandhi Mahaan, is forced from childhood to live by the values of a fanatically Gandhian family until at age 40, he explodes, drinks for just one evening, leading to his wife (played by Simran), son, father-in-law and brother-in-law having a baffling, extreme public meltdown. Then, Gandhi Mahaan, in Tamil-hero-style, slaps his wife, Naachi, in front of all his neighbours. Everybody leaves him, he turns to a life of liquor brewing, gambling and...

ReviewThough Vikram is in good form, the plot meanders and falters, squandering away the opportunity to pull off something experimental and innovative. Sowmya RajendranFor many, Gandhi was a man of peace who preached honesty and an ethical way of life till he breathed his last. For others, Gandhi was a tyrant who imposed his stringent notions about morality on those who came under his influence. Seventy four years since his death, he continues to be discussed, dissected and used to defend or critique a political point of view. Mahaan, directed by Karthik Subbaraj, is not about Gandhi but a reluctant Gandhian. Named after the leader, Gandhi Mahaan (Vikram) is forced by his father, an ardent Gandhian, to follow the way of life prescribed by the Mahatma. But isn’t that a form of violence, too? This is the central question of the film. Starting from 1968, the film tells the story...
