A different film that blends social issues, police atrocities and rebellions lives with great intensity. Every emotion touches your heart, and every beat of Anirudh induces goosebumps. Pre-Interval, Interval, Pre-Climax & Climax are some freak shows.“Another viewer wrote about the overall presentation and performances in the film, “#DC #Anirudh steals the show in a theatrical experience that will be remembered for a long time. This is one of those films that feels unique and different with every watch. The writing is so layered and brilliant. Lokesh Kanagaraj is stunning as Das.
