Plot

The film revolves around a group of youngsters who leave their native place for Chennai, to make a name for themselves in the film industry. In Chennai, they rent a house whose owner is optimistic about their dreams. Soon enough, they even strike big with a big-budget film. The question remains: Will they make it?

Star Performances

For this film, the content does the talking. Writer, producer, and director SP Gnanamozhi has delivered a compelling film that explores both the struggle to make it as well as sustain it in the film industry.

The ensemble cast does their job well, with Devadarshini and Thambi Ramaiah's roles deserving special mention.

Analysis

There is no shortage of subjects when it comes to making films. However, not many appreciate exploring the aesthetics behind the smooth operations of the film industry. It is more difficult to find films that honestly investigate the struggles of the newbies aiming to make it big into any region of the Indian film industry.

However, with 'Thiraipada Nagaram,' multi-tasker SP Gnanamozhi makes an honest effort in this direction. The film explores the themes of struggle, early success, and the ultimate efforts to maintain the same, even if for a moment.

The film is neither an extended thesis on the subjects nor is it a social lecture disguised as a film. Yes, the editing could have been better at places, and the narrative should have been a bit more layered. But the acting performances by the ensemble cast more than make up for the same. The presence of seasoned actors like Devadarshini and Thambi Ramaiah only adds to the finesse displayed on screen. The six actors playing the aspiring youngsters also mark their presence. To be fair, the film 'Thiraipada Nagaram' is simple, sweet, and effective in many ways.

What's There?

  • Simple yet effective narrative
  • Good writing and direction by SP Gnanamozhi
  • Effective performances from the ensemble cast, Devadarshini, and Thambi Ramaiah in particular

What's Not There?

  • Minor flaws in editing and the conclusion

Verdict

'Thiraipada Nagram' is an earnest take on how tough it is to join the film industry, and how much difficult it is to maintain the newfound success. SP Gnanamozhi, who has written, produced as well as directed this film, has delivered a winner with this film. The acting performances are like the cherry on the icing.
