Half Yearly Report Of Tamil Cinema -2011

Half Yearly Report of Tamil cinema 2011

January

“Thenmerku Paruvakkattru”  which the film was released last year. Commercially the film is not a hit. But it received   a very good critical acclaim from the media.  And get into the film festivals. In due course for Pongal we’ve got some major releases. Vijay’s kavalan, Dhanush’s  Adukalam, Karthi’s  Siruthai, kalaingar’s “Elaingan”, sollitharava. Out of these films Adukalam receive good critical acclaim. Dhanush note worthy performance, Good making and screenplay by Vetrimaran, Sun TV’s aggressive marketing dosen’t give the enough collection. With lot of hiccups Vijay’s Kavalan got released. Inspite of all those hindrance it has got some good opening.  But failed to become a note worthy commercial entertainer.  Kalaingar’s Ilaigan is a washout in all the areas. The first day night show has been cancelled in many theatres. In spite of this  the film made to run for more than 100 days.  The one and only hit is karthi’s siruthai. A non stop entertainer. With santhanam  karthi performance and some racy good numbers help the film to become a super hit of this year.  Sollitharava  is a clean washout. After pongal S.D.Sabapathi’s Pathinaru got released. Some good poster designs, draws the audience in to the hall. But fails to impress.

Super Hit : Siruthai
Average   : Adukalam, Kavalan.

Durai Dayanithi’s “Thoonga Nagaram” Miskin’s “yudham sei” Gowtham Vasudev menon’s “Nadunisi Naikal’, Dhanush’s “Seedan” and some small budget film got released this month. Even though “thoonga nagaram’ got some good content , because of the lack of good screenplay fails to impress the audience. Gowtham Vasudev Menon’s  “Nadunisi Naikal”  creates lot of expectation among the viewer’s before release. Fails. Subramania siva’s second outing with dhanush “seedan” a Malayalam remake. Fails to impress the viewer. The one and only film which has got some good critical acclaim, and a commercial benefit to some extent is Mishkin’s “yudam sei”. Prakash raj’s “Payanam “ only gain some good revenue in Multiplexes.

Average : Yudham sei

World cup, School exams, makes the big budget film to wait for their turn, lot of small budget film got released in this month. Most of the  small budget film gone without trace. Jeeva’s “singam puli”, Kullanari Kootam, Rasu.Maduravan’s “Muthukku Muthaka” been note worthy relese of this month.  In spite of Jeeva’s presence Singam puli fails to impress. With wide advertisements Kullanari kootam try to draw the audience into the hall. But fails to withstand. March’s un expected hit is Rasu.Maduravan’s “Muthukku Muthaka”. A Family tear jerker. With tv serial kind of stuff received some good revenue in b and c centres.

Average : Muthukku Muthaka.

April

K.v.Anand’s “ko”, simbu’s “vaanam” Nanjupuram, Sun tv’ Mappillai, prasanth’s Ponnar Sankar got released this Month. Nanjupuram which the film was in the boxes for more than year got released. A small budget movie in digital fail to raise interest even though released through Rama narayanan. Prasanth’s Magnum opus Ponnar sankar impress with some good publicity.  Technically film impress, fail to impress in content, that resembles in collection. Suntv’s Mappillai is another failure from sun- dhanush camp.  The film is a super hit for suntv alone. Simbu’s vaanam results resembles the result it has got  in telugu original version.  Critically acclaims with average commercial gaining.  This month one and only superhit is  Ko. With some interesting  plot, screenplay, Harris jeyaraj’s  foot tapping music,  Eye catching visuals, with all the ingredients, the film impress all type of mass become a super hit.
Super Hit – Ko
Average : Vaanam

May
Sun tv’s  Engeyum Kadhal, Dayanidhi Alagiri’s “Azhagar samyin kuthirai” Kalavaani’s producer Nazir’s “Ethan”, Kandeen,  and some small budget movies. Exotic location, super hit songs, with good production value  Sun tv’s  “Engeyum kadhal” fails because of the poor screenplay.  Writer Baskar sakthi’s short story turns as a “Azhagar sami kuthirai”. Film receives critical acclaim from all sides of film critics and literary group , but fails to impress the common film goers.  Ethan got delayed release because of the deficit . Did some average opening because of vimal’s presence. Santhanu’s Kandeen fails to impress.

June

Small budget films like “Anmai thavarel”, Festival winner “aranya kaandam”  Bala’s big budget bonanza “Avan Ivan” , sathyam  cinema’s “180” Arulnidhi’s “Udhayan”, Jithan Ramesh’s “pillaiyar koil kadaisi theru” got released.  Aanmai thavarel is a straight lift of a Brazilian movie trade. Lot of tamil movie have taken the plot from that movie. But fail to give the reality.  Festival winner, and critically acclaimed “Aranya kaandam” failed commercially. Arulnidhi’s action outing fails to impress the audience. Jithan ramset’s pillaiyar koil kadaisi theru got unnoticed because of the old type screenplay.  Even though stylish and good technical value sathyam cinema’s 180 fails to draw the interest of the audience because of the over ridden cancer concept.  Baal, visual, aria “Avan Ivan” opens with a big bang. Bang goes of without trace because of the content of the film. Film critics and the viewers never expected this type of non content film from bala.
