"Maharaja" is a commendable suspense thriller that marks Vijay Sethupathi's

"Maharaja" is a commendable suspense thriller that marks Vijay Sethupathi's 50th film. The sharply written script delivers a non-linear narrative with fantastic twists, expertly directed by Nithilan Swaminathan. Vijay Sethupathi shines with an understated performance, making the film a ruthless and shocking experience. The crisp runtime ensures minimal dull moments, but the humor feels overdone and the themes somewhat unoriginal, reminiscent of "Iratta" and familiar Tamil film industry tropes. Anurag Kashyap makes a decent antagonist. Despite these flaws, "Maharaja" is a great watch, and with a Hindi dub available, it's poised to reach a wider audience. Tamil cinema continues to impress, and "Maharaja" is a testament to its thriving talent and innovative storytelling. Instagram @streamgenx

What a screenplay. Keeps you wondering and guessing and then the gut punch in the end. VJS is just a class act. Reminded me of his breakthrough year. Extremely violent in parts.
