Review of the motion picture Kuruthi Aattam: A good actioner with some moving scenes
The plot of the movie Kuruthi Aattam is that Shakthi, a patient at a government hospital, befriends Muthu, a drug lord’s son in Madurai. He is forced to exact revenge on those who are to blame for his untimely death.
Review of the film Kuruthi Aattam: After a strong debut in 2017 with 8 Thotakkal, director Sri Ganesh has now released his second movie, in which the up-and-coming director has managed to live up to expectations. An intense, uncut action movie with some brilliantly moving moments is Kuruthi Aattam. The world that Sri Ganesh has created is full of compelling characters who not only reveal themselves as the story goes on but also change over time.
Kuruthi Aattam is a respectable movie worth seeing, despite the fact that the story isn’t particularly original.
Arivu (Prakash Raghavan) gets into a fight with Shakthi (Atharvaa), who works as a hospital attendant, for making fun of his friend. This puts his life in danger because Arivu is Gandhimathi’s (Radhika Sarathkumar) close aide and the son of Madurai kingpin Durai (Radha Ravi). However, the same incident earns him Muthu’s (Kanna Ravi), Gandhimathi’s son, friendship. Muthu, who is also Arivu’s friend, makes an effort to resolve their differences and protects Shakthi whenever he is in danger.
In the meantime, Kanmani, a young girl in the hospital with a severe viral illness, and Shakthi are developing a lovely friendship. Even though everything goes according to plan and Shakthi is about to embark on a new life with his loved ones, Muthu’s passing shatter all of his dreams.
Who or what is responsible for Muthu’s passing? Can Shakthi save the young girl while also taking on the criminals responsible for the death of his friend?
The screenplay and character development by Kuruthi Aattam are really intriguing. Every character has a backstory, and the narrative is written in a way that highlights those stories. We meet so many characters in the first fifteen minutes of the film that it is difficult to even determine who is related to whom. Although the characters are introduced right away, Sri Ganesh delays revealing the mystery surrounding each of them.
The tale of Kanmani, the young child who is admitted to the public hospital, is stirring and heartfelt. It occasionally moves us while also introducing a fresh plot. After serving years in prison, her father finally gets to see her, only to ruin their lives. Arivu’s character and Daniel Balaji’s in Polladhavan are quite similar. The belief that he is incapable of anything by those around him drives him to commit even more crimes.
The majority of actioners’ tales centre on friendship, betrayal, and some egoistic traits. Kuruthi Aattam is the same as before. Friendship, feelings, and every other component required for such a film are present in the proper ratios. The pre-climax sequences, however, drag a little and disrupt the overall flow.
It’s enjoyable and energising to watch Muthu and Shakthi’s friendship scenes. Radhika Sarathkumar’s portrayal of a kingpin in Madurai is compelling enough to keep viewers’ interest. The romantic scenes between Atharvaa and Vennila, who is portrayed by Priya Bhavani Shankar, add to the story without detracting from it.
The movie’s main selling point is its sequence of stunts, which is why they deserve special attention. However, the editing seems hurried and doesn’t allow enough time for the audience to empathise with the characters being presented. The director abruptly cuts to the next sequence, which is in a completely different mood, after setting up the audience to see a character’s life.
Kuruthi Aattam is an adequate action movie overall, but the second half’s script could have been much stronger.

Pushpa 2 The Rule advance booking tracking better than RRR, Jawan in the US; crosses $1.4 million with 10 days to go
Pushpa 2 The Rule has already crossed $1.4 million in advance bookings in North America even though the release is 10 days away.
Allu Arjun‘s Pushpa 2: The Rule is still nine days from its theatrical release but is already breaking box office records. The film is set for a grand release worldwide, and if its US pre-sales are any indication, it will likely get a bumper opening. The film is already tracking better than blockbusters like RRR and Jawan in the US. (Also read: Pushpa 2 trailer reactions: Allu Arjun fans predict blockbuster, cheer for Fahadh Faasil’s entry scene)
Pushpa 2’s US tsunami
On Monday, trade tracker Venky Box Office shared the film’s advance booking collections for its US premiere. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), the trade analyst tweeted, “#Pushpa2TheRule USA Premiere Advance Sales: $1,383,949 – 900 Locations – 3420 Shows – 50008 Tickets Sold.”
By Sunday evening, Pushpa 2 had sold over 50,000 tickets in the US, with the release 10 days away. The tweet added that North American advance booking collections had crossed $1.458 million (around ₹12 crore), ‘which is a record’.
Trade analysts say that the film is set to cross $1.5 million with nine days to go, which means it is outpacing SS Rajamouli’s RRR and Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Jawan, the two biggest Indian movies in the US in recent times. Both films grossed over $15 million each in North America and are among the top five highest-grossing Indian films in the continent. Pushpa 2 is matching the pace of Shah Rukh’s other 2023 blockbuster, Pathaan, and is just behind the all-time record holder for India in the US – Baahubali 2 (which earned $20 million in the territory).
All about Pushpa 2: The Rise
Directed by Sukumar, Pushpa 2: The Rise is the sequel to the director’s 2021 pan-India hit Pushpa: The Rise. It brings back Allu Arjun as the titular anti-hero, alongside Rashmika Mandanna and Fahadh Fassil. The film, touted to be one of the biggest Indian productions ever, is set to hit the screens on December 5.
