Madharaasi, the latest action thriller from Tamil Cinema starring Sivakarthikeyan and directed by AR Murugadoss, is now streaming on Prime Video. During its theatrical release and now on OTT arrival, Madharaasi has one thing in common: Anirudh facing backlash.
The film did not work much big on theatricals and just collected around 100 Cr gross worldwide; Murgugadoss’s recent form and low buzz have impacted the collections massively.
The film is receiving a good response on OTT, as most of the viewers felt it is way better than Murugadoss’s recent films. Yes, there are some flaws in the writing or screenplay, but for most audiences it is working.
However, there is unanimous criticism of Anirudh for his music. There are some blocks that showed the vintage Murugadoss in the film, but they did not work in the way they had to because of the weak background score.
Normally Anirudh always elevates some blocks to a whole new level with his music, but somehow in Madharaasi his work is not impressive and is facing backlash.
