Director Perarasu who is known for directing blockbuster films such as “Thiruppachi”, “Sivakasi”, came up with an emotional tweet slamming reviewers who are spreading negative reviews for Rajinikanth-starring “Annatthe”. It is notable that the film is being severely compared with his own film “Thiruppachi” which contains similar story plot. The filmmaker said that a film will have positives and negatives and expressed his disappointment over reviewers treating the negatives of the film as treason.

“Annatthe” released on theatres across the world on the special occasion of “Diwali” festival with much expectations. Fans of the actor who didn’t get satisfied with his previous film “Darbar” were eagerly waiting for the film to get released. However, as soon as getting released, the film started receiving mixed reviews from the fans. Many said that the film didn’t work due to its slow pace and the old school brother-sister sentiment. However, Super star Rajinikanth’s screen presence and energy got admired by the audience.

The Siva directorial revolves around “Kaalaiyan” who is the president for a number of villages in a rural part of Tamil nadu. Sky is the limit for the amount of affection he has for his sister, played by Keerthy Suresh. She gets eloped with her boy friend after nodding “yes” to her affectionate brother who fixes an alliance for her. She happily lives in Kolkata after marrying her boyfriend until villain enters to illegally control her firms. Rest of the film relies on the struggles faced by Keerthy Suresh and how Kaalaiyan destroys the villain and his aides.

Despite of the decent plot and star studded casting, the slow paced screen play and cliched sentiment scenes tested the patience of audience. Almost all the reviewers of Kollywood film industry criticized the film for the weak plot. On seeing the negative reviews, Director Perarasu who recently joined BJP party, came up with a tweet writing “A film will have positives and negatives. It is disheartening to see few treating the negatives of the film as a treason and reviewing it with vengeance, hatred and in an uncivilized manner”

“Standards of few Youtube reviews are lower. Though, the success of “Annatthe” will make them admire the film” he added. Check out his tweet below :

திரைப்படத்தில் நிறைகுறை இருக்கத்தான் செய்யும். அதை தேசத்துரோக ரேஞ்சுக்கு
வன்மத்தோடும்,வக்கிரத்தோடும்,நாகரிகமற்றும் சிலர் விமர்சனம் செய்வது
வேதனையாக இருக்கிறது!
சில யூட்யூப் சேனல் விமர்சனம் மிகவும் தரம் தாழ்ந்து போய்விட்டது!
இருந்தும் அண்ணாத்த வெற்றி அன்னாந்து பார்க்க வைக்கும்! pic.twitter.com/1Tne5lPwwS

அரசியலும், சினிமாவும் விமர்சனங்களுக்கு உட்பட்டது.
ஆனால் அந்த விமர்சனத்துக்கும் வரைமுறை இருக்கு!
குறைகளை நாகரிகமாக விமர்சிக்க வேண்டும்.
நான் குறிப்பிட்டது தரம் தாழ்ந்து, தனிமனித தாக்குதலோடு விமர்சித்தவர்களை!

Here’s the tweet of the filmmaker that was posted on the movie’s release day :

எழுபது வயதான ஒரு நடிகர்
கல்யாணம் ஆகாத இளைஞனா
காதலிக்கும் காதலனா,
டூயட் பாடும் கதாநாயகனா நடிக்க
அதை மக்களும் ஏற்றுக்கொண்டு
ரசிக்கிறார்கள் என்றால்
அது உலகத்திலேயே
சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் ரஜினி ஒருவராகத்தான் இருக்க முடியும்.
ஆயிரம் விமர்சனங்கள் வரட்டும்
ரஜினியின் எனர்ஜிக்கு ஈடில்லை! pic.twitter.com/hkuw03mNN9
