Synopsis

After losing a hand in a freak accident, Kali can no longer work and struggles to put his life back together with help from his wife, Manga.

Our take

Often considered a turning point in superstar Rajinikanth’s career, this Tamil classic is an observant study of sibling relationships that subtly spotlights the inevitability of change. An inspired adaptation of Uma Chandran’s novel, which marks the directorial debut of screenwriter Mahendran.
