Rudhra Thandavam : Big letdown ; Sivakumarin Sabatham - comedy film sans laughs

  . Media has been taken for audience a ride by Rudhra Thandavm makers. The websites - YouTube channels after going by a few dialogues in the trailor were seen giving the film a anti- Christian - Muslim stamp. .  Some even termed it as Vanniyar voice. The film is neither anti- Christ- Allah but anti- movie goer. For close to 2 hrs, the film  tests your patience. After it starts the court room drama and some explicit dialogues on the use of SC/ ST  benefits by Hindus after converting to Christianity wakes you up and wait for the fireworks that director Mohan G had promised. You are disappointed as the court room drama takes a serial like ending. For Radha Ravi as lawyer , Gautam Menon as drug smuggler  and Thambi Ramamiah the  constable, it is a cake walk. Richard Rishi does what is expected out of him.  Technically it is a notch above the previous outing Draupadi of Mohan. 

Trade analyst says that the film collected Rs 7.25 crores in three days.  It seems PMK cadres are backing it up. A report said that Brahmin priests in Srirangam turned up to see the film. Reports  suggest the film to be a biggest vlockbuster of 2021 . We had Thala Ajith's wife Shalini and son Aadjvik come to see the film as hero Richard is brother of Shalini. In Chennai this fervour was not seen.

Hip Hop Aadhi was emerging as a comic hero who would deliver the laughs and fill the coffers of the producer. With Sivakumarin Sabatham, he shows that his stock of gags is over. A pedestrian stuff  but nothing surprising as it competes with many other films of the same quality.
