Aaryan Movie Public Talk: Ratsasan Repeat or Flop?

After the failure of Lal Salaam, actor Vishnu Vishal has returned with the psycho-thriller Aaryan, which hit theatres today. The film is receiving mixed reviews from both critics and audiences.

Ever since Aaryan’s trailer was released, expectations were high. Vishnu Vishal’s Ratsasan (2018) is still considered a cult classic in Tamil cinema, and fans hoped Aaryan would deliver the same intensity.

However, reactions are divided. Some viewers say Aaryan is an engaging thriller with a strong social message and stands apart from Ratsasan. Others feel that while the first half is gripping, the second half slows down due to unnecessary romantic sequences.

Many also noted that Ratsasan’s success owed much to Ghibran’s haunting background score, which they found only average in Aaryan.

Despite the mixed feedback, trade analysts believe the film’s reception stems from high expectations rather than poor quality. Aaryan is seen as a decent comeback for Vishnu Vishal after Lal Salaam.

The box office performance over the next few days will reveal whether Aaryan can turn its mixed buzz into commercial success.
