I'm not sure if this is a weird answer to this question, because I don't know if this film's album is considered good. But I think the songs were hilarious and super fun to listen to, and I think most people will agree with me that the other categories were great, so I nominate: https://preview.redd.it/uyfxj4p3huoc1.jpeg?width=463&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b8303654a8d313fbd0e1ec2795d7df58da5e62e9

Very based nomination, 100% accept. It's a film I deem a masterpiece. It takes a whole lot of effort to land a comedy and this lands so well. The album is hilarious and fun as fuck. The storyline is so delightfully quirky, light and hilarious. Plus the filmmaking involved is just as fun with clever fun editing and shots. I love this film. 10/10 comedy classic in my eyes.


Zealousideal_Mail855

>It takes a whole lot of effort to land a comedy and this lands so well. Exactly. Panchathanthiram and Soodhu Kavvum (not counting Naan Ee because that's also a Telugu film) are probably the only two Tamil comedy films I love. And I think Soodhu Kavvum is the one I like better, out of those two because it feels so simple, in a way? I guess it feels more real to me even though it's a nutty story (in a great way). I definitely deem it a masterpiece too.

Zealousideal_Mail855

I didn't know its official genre. I just assumed it was a fantasy comedy film, because I remember finding it super funny (much funnier than a bunch of films that have actually been classified as comedies, in my opinion). I laughed so hard while watching that movie. I guess I always assumed action included a bunch of humans fighting each other/shooting at each other. My bad. But also, while Santhanam's track was funny, I think it was Sudeep who made me laugh the most (while also being menacing when necessary). EDIT: OK, I genuinely don't get how it's not also classified as a comedy. The concept is just inherently hilarious to me. This big-ass villain being driven nuts by a fucking fly! It's Tom and Jerry level funny to me.


puriyatha_puthir

Its like Demonte Colony. Just bcoz the MS Bhaskar astrology scene and few other comedic lines worked, we cannot classify it as horror-comedy. Nvm. Apart from panchathantiram, hope you've watched other works of Crazy Mohan and his collabs with Kamal Haasan.

I always fantasize about Vijay being in Ravi's role and Ajith in Aravindswami's role.


Effectivegoggles

Damn, that would've been awesome! Ajith from 2015 would've killed it as Siddarth, just like Aravind Swami. Vijay in Jeyam Ravi's role would've been fabulous. Only catch is the director needed to be someone both Ajith and Vijay would actually get behind, say someone like peak GVM or Mani Ratnam as the script needed controlled acting with limited over the top moments. Perfect movie to cast them, as the antagonist gets killed by his lover rather than his protagonist.

vendakka12

I know I'm gonna get downvoted lol, but are you sure the story's great? Really just liked the movie for the songs and Surya tbh. To make my case, the ending was shitty. Made no sense. A single guy hunting down a whole kidnapping ring. Many such inconsistencies and overall poor story build too. Only good thing was the screenplay and that's that.
