Gatta Kusthi 2 review: Vishnu Vishal, Aishwarya Lekshmi can’t save poorly crafted sequel | Movie-review News

Gatta Kusthi 2 Movie Review & Rating: Sure, one shouldn’t judge a movie before watching it all the way through. Who knows, what if some kind of mind-blowing subversion is placed at the end, which fully changes our perception of the work? Sure, every film deserves a chance to tell its story fully before being subjected to scrutiny. But consider this scenario: In the hero’s intro scene in a movie that pretends to promote women’s empowerment, we see him powering through a crowd of women who have gathered around a tanker lorry to collect water. In the rush, his head gets stuck between the hips of two women (No, I am not joking). The shot is framed in such a way that we see his face sandwiched between them, and to escape, he performs the “noble act” of pinching one of their hips.

Parimala and Co movie review: Jayaram, Urvashi’s comedy thriller is a lazy disaster | Movie-review News

Published by Parlour News

Parimala and Co Movie Review & Rating: After watching Thalaivan Thalaivii (2025), the first thought that came to my mind was that Pandiraaj, the director himself, could never create anything worse. He had set a shockingly low bar that one would think could only be lowered further with a deliberate and determined effort. Be it intentional or not, Pandiraaj has proven me wrong. But I hope I wasn’t the only one who went into Parimala and Co with the dumb confidence that “this wouldn’t be worse than Thalaivan Thalaivii,” only to be completely knocked out. While Parimala and Co isn’t one of the worst Tamil movies to have come out in recent times, it gets under one’s skin throughout, as it feels like one of the most lazily written and conceived mainstream commercial Tamil films in recent memory. Despite its core being a tried-and-true (and even hackneyed, to be honest) whodunit, even its story has been developed in an unimpressive manner, let alone its script.

Ace movie review Cast: Vijay Sethupathi, Yogi Babu, Rukmini Vasanth, B. S. Avinash, Babloo Prithiveeraj, Divya Pillai Director: Arumuga Kumar Rating: ★★.5 When Vijay Sethupathi chooses a film, you can bet that it’ll be something different, and wait for the surprise in theatres. His latest film with director Arumugakumar, whom he worked with in Oru Nalla Naal Paathu Solren in 2018, is also different from his recent films like Maharaja and Merry Christmas. Ace movie review: Vijay Sethupathi and Yogi Babu’s combine lifts this film. What’s the story? Arivu (Yogi Babu), a rag picker, lives in Malaysia and masquerades as a rich businessman to impress people, especially Kalpana (Divya Pillai) whom he fancies. He heads to the airport to pick up an associate from India and believes Bold Kannan (Vijay Sethupathi) is the man and takes him home. Clueless as to Bold (or Bolt) Kannan’s past or who he really is, Arivu gets Kannan a job in Kalpana’s restaurant, and at this juncture, Kannan ends up meeting Rukku (Rukmini Vasanth). It is love at first …

Tourist Family Day 8 Tamil Nadu Box Office Trends: Sasikumar and Simran’s comedy thriller clocks past Day 1 collections

Tourist Family Day 8 Tamil Nadu Box Office Trends: Sasikumar and Simran’s comedy thriller clocks past Day 1 collections

Published by Parlour News

What happens when a small, quiet film outpaces the giants around it? You get a sleeper success like the Tamil flick Tourist Family, which is surprising all the May Day-released films now. On its eighth day, the Tamil Nadu box office indicates that Tourist Family will gross Rs 2.40 crore, a figure higher than what it opened with. That’s right. Its Day 8 haul is more than Day 1, which itself was a solid Rs 2.10 crore. Tourist Family narrates the story of a Tamil Sri Lankan family. They illegally migrate to India and attempt to settle in Tamil Nadu by posing as locals. It’s a tale of survival layered with comedy, pain, and identity. Debutant director Abhishan Jeevinth, in his first outing, crafts a tight narrative that neither overdramatizes the crisis nor underplays the emotional stakes. Sasikumar delivers a measured performance as the protective father, while Simran brings a quiet strength to her role as the family’s moral center. Yogi Babu adds laughter, but never at the cost of the film’s sincerity. The film …

Box Office: Tourist Family edges past Suriya led Retro’s dailies on 1st Tuesday in Tamil Nadu; Set for a blockbuster run

Sometimes, cinema throws surprises no one sees coming. While big names and massive promotions often dominate headlines, it is a little film that has caught everyone’s attention in Tamil Nadu this week. Sasikumar, Simran, and Yogi Babu starrer Tourist Family, a low-profile release directed by debutant Abishan Jeevinth, is now slowly stealing the show. Guess what, the film is likely to beat Suriya’s most hyped Retro’s first Tuesday collections in the Tamil state. Released on Labour Day alongside biggies like Ajay Devgn’s Raid 2, Nani’s HIT 3, and Suriya’s Retro, Tourist Family was barely on anyone’s radar. Especially in Tamil Nadu, while the buzzed-about Retro opened big and started to fade off, Tourist Family found its rhythm. It debuted with Rs 2 crore gross on Day 1, dropped slightly to Rs 1.6 crore on Friday (Day 2), but gained traction over the weekend. The film made Rs 2.8 crore from the Box Office on Saturday and an unexpected Rs 4 crore on Sunday. That’s a really big achievement, a blockbuster kind. What’s even more surprising …
