Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen’s Thalaivan Thalaivii, directed by Pandiraj, hit theatres on July 25 and received a strong response from audiences. The film’s theatrical run ended as a blockbuster with collections of around 85 crores worldwide.
After its successful run in cinemas, Thalaivan Thalaivii started streaming on Prime Video from yesterday. The film is available in three languages, including Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi, which has widened its reach to audiences across regions.
Many viewers who missed it in theatres are now watching it on OTT and sharing their thoughts online. Some have called the movie overrated, pointing out that certain portions felt mediocre or even cringe despite the performances of the lead actors.
Several people also questioned how the film managed to become such a big hit. While many agree that Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen delivered terrific performances, they felt the overall story and treatment seemed outdated for today’s audience.
It remains to be seen how Thalaivan Thalaivii will fare on OTT in the coming days. With early mixed reactions on social media, the movie’s digital journey could either strengthen its blockbuster tag or struggle to match its theatrical hype.
