Anti-Indian Movie Review: ‘Blue Sattai’ Maran Makes A Surprisingly Watchable Message Movie With Humour And Finesse

Director: Elamaran Cast: Elamaran, Jeyaraj, Anil Kumar, Muthuraman, Aadukalam Naren, Velu Prabhakaran, Radha Ravi, Pasi Sathya, Seshu, Vijaya, Charles Vinoth Language: Tamil Whenever a critic rips apart a movie, there is always someone who asks, 'well, if you know so much about making movies, why don't you make your own f-ing movie?' So, after ripping apart numerous movies and getting rather legendary for it, Maran has gone and made his own movie. First, a big salute from the critics' community. And a smaller salute from the cinephile community. For what Maran has done is that he's made a message movie and shown that you can make such a movie with some amount of cinematic finesse, without boring the audience. When I say cinematic finesse, I'm not talking at the level that great directors have. But for a first-time filmmaker to even attempt such things shows a certain level of cinematic ambition. Not just script level ambition, where I am going to put everything on screen and make the actors deliver their lines. But I'm going to stage some scenes. That was surprising to me because I've rarely seen him discuss technical aspects of filmmaking in his reviews. I don't know if he does it deliberately or not. He focuses mainly on the story and actors. He rarely discusses camera work or editing. The fact that some things here are interestingly staged was a nice surprise. The very way the title is written, the font, has the symbol of all major religions of India — Hinduism, Islam and Christianity. And there is a fable narrated early on that religion is never the problem. The problem is always those who use religion for their own selfish, anti-social and anti-Indian purposes. This theme is elaborated by the fact that we first see a cop whose name was Baasha and his father is Ibrahim. Now, because his name is Baasha, will he get a Muslim burial or his connections to Hinduism and Christianity result in those traditions being followed. No religion is spared. Because this is a message movie, you expect a lot of speechifying. Yes, there are preachy monologues. But what Maran does, very interestingly, even in his writing of the screenplay, he places these monologues in the mouths of people while they're in the midst of bigger crowds. What would have been boring monologues between people become dialogues, interactions about this particular issue that he has planted at the beginning of the film. Maran is known for his trademark humour. This film is that rare message movie, which shows that just because you want to deliver a message doesn't mean you can't have fun. There are some laugh out loud lines, involving a boy erecting a shamiyana that are an absolute riot. Notice how this scene is filmed. This boy, out of sheer frustration, is calling somebody. All that was needed is to make him stand and make a call. But Maran has a way of staging the scene. He makes the boy go back and forth, his frustration keeps multiplying and the camera keeps following this boy's movement. Even the very first scene surprised me. It's a single shot. That's not extraordinary. You find it in a lot of films. But for a first-time filmmaker, it's a bit of an indulgence. Taking a single shot means that you have to have a lot of rehearsals. The actors have to make their mark, the technicians have to hit their mark. You have to make sure that nothing goes out of place. There is a lot of precision planning needed. This is kind of surprising that Maran is not just a script level filmmaker, but he has some amount of cinematic ambition as well. I want to mention two more scenes that stood out in terms of staging. He stages gaana songs, they kind of are a combination of gaana and oppaari and they're being staged like a stage play. That is the camera is stationary in front of this group of men who are singing the song. There is an audience behind them. We just see the camera being stationary and observing it like a stage play. That's interesting because we hear the whole song and the interaction between the various men as they look at each other and talk about various things while singing the song. But while this is happening, there is a piece of information regarding a by-election that plays a major role in the movie. And this bit of information is being passed on from member to member of the audience. What Maran does is instead of telling us what this information is right away, he makes one audience member pass it on to another and then another and finally it comes to the person who is right in front, Baasha's mother. Finally, Maran reveals what this bit of information is. It's a lovely bit of humour and very practical stuff. It involves votes for money and it's not the kind of stuff you needed to think of as being part of such a scene with this gaana song going on or crowd mourning the death of a person.

The other scene is when the leaders of the two parties — ruling and opposition — address the media. Maran again places the camera so that they're very close to the leaders and the people around them. And we don't see the media at all. There are no mics pressed into the faces, we don't see the reporters. So, it is just these politicians that we see, so when he cuts from the ruling party leader and opposition and back and forth, it's as if they're having a conversation between themselves. And the media is kind of nowhere in the picture. The film is set in a fisherfolk community during a by-election and Maran captures this atmosphere perfectly, whether it's the fisherfolk themselves or the corrupt cops or politicians. The scenes flow smoothly and organically. There is a sharp focus to how one scene cuts to another because there is always something that's happening that gives a little bit of a twist. For example take the scene of peace talk between all the major religions being conducted by somebody close to the collector. Now this scene goes on as usual as you'd expect — arguments, counter-arguments, sounding like an actual debate rather than something staged with a bunch of monologues and people blaming each other. What really makes the scene is that when a cop takes the seat after the collector leaves and a gun makes an appearance and points in a particular direction deliberately. There is this little bits of humour scattered throughout the movie and they make the messages palatable. There is at least an effort to add a sugar pill around the bitter medicine. There is no denying that this is kind of a rough film, it's not super smooth. Some of the acting could have been better. Some of the rough edges could have been smoother. The final stretch degenerates into high-pitched melodrama considering what we've just seen. And it doesn't seem to fit especially with that closing line that is really in your face. But to make a message movie in Tamil cinema that doesn't send you home with a freaking migraine, that is no small achievement. So, yes, colour me surprised. Mr. Maran, you've earned the right to rip apart several more movies.

Anti Indian movie review: A scathing satire that doesn't take sides

Not just fortune, even Tamil audiences, it seems, favour the bold. Irrespective of content quality, anything fearless—be it an intimate romantic scene or expletive dialogues—is usually met with praise. It’s in such brazenness that Anti Indian, the directorial debut of YouTuber C Elamaran, stands out. It revels in its audacity, even at the cost of being oversimplified. There is no ‘kuriyeedu’ here; everything is straightforward and brazen.

The film opens with a close-up of the face of Basha (Elemaran), who has been murdered by unknown people for unknown reasons. The film or the characters don’t care about finding the culprits. This is intentional and leaves us with a lot to ponder about. After a long delay, his brother-in-law Ezhumalai (Jayaraj), a local upcoming politician, gets the body for burial. ‘Ezhumalai’ as a brother-in-law to ‘Basha’? That’s because their mother is a Hindu while the father is a Muslim. Due to the mixed religious identity, his body gets neither accepted in a Muslim burial ground nor a Hindu crematory ground.

Parallelly, we see how the Chief Minister (Radha Ravi) and the police department are preparing for an upcoming by-election, which they are most likely to lose. The opposition has the upper hand, and only superstar actor ‘Kabali’ can tilt the scale. So, the CM and the police have to come up with a plan to either win or stop the election altogether. The sequences involving the CM and the police officials create a sense of unease, given that they discuss sinister plans very casually. When the case of Basha’s body gets media attention, these men in power plan to use it for their benefit.

Since the Jallikattu protest of 2017, Tamil cinema has shown quite a bit of interest in the idea of political conspiracy and police brutality. Yet, most films have done so with a sense of caution. Even the recent blockbuster Maanaadu focussed more on the entertainment and less on such social issues. This is where Anti Indian distinguishes itself from the rest. It doesn’t mince words and is always in your face. Ezhumalai bears a saffron tilak on his head. His party leader is named Raja. And yet, the film is careful not to take sides. It paints Hindus, Muslims, Christians, media, police, and everyone in the film with the same brush.

The problem then is, what’s really the voice of the director? Perhaps, the nameless, black-clad character (Ghilli Maran), who takes digs at everyone, is the voice? He wanders around asking questions, like the one he poses to Ezhumalai: “How are all the leaders in your party fair while the followers are dark?” However, I wondered why this film steered clear of caste issues. Surely, this is a conscious decision from a filmmaker, who makes every other issue a target.

The craft is straightforward. With a limited budget, Maran has pulled off a decent film that isn’t worried about nuances. No aesthetic brilliance, no compositions that draw attention. It may be technically inferior, but the content makes up for this. The film only cares about its story, and I liked how a lot of it is shown and not told. There are expositions, sure, but they are decently executed. For instance, the idea of juxtaposing the impromptu gaana singing session at the funeral, while police and politicians devise evil plans is well done. It reminded me of Kaala’s climax—maybe it was supposed to. However, there are tonal inconsistencies. Predominantly, the film tries to be a satire, but at times, it does turn sober and realistic. At the end, it left me feeling admiration for the loudness and the boldness of its voice.

As a YouTuber, Maran has been notorious for his impertinent take on films, directors, and actors. As a filmmaker, he has taken on men of all religions and all types of politics… and ultimately, those who wield power. Perhaps the film’s greatest value lies in setting a new benchmark when it comes to freedom of expression in Tamil cinema.

Anti Indian movie review: Blue Sattai Maaran's film, which is a bold take on religious anarchy, deserves a better making

What makes the unusual and hard-hitting plot interesting in parts is its no-hold-barred depiction aided by effective dialogues

Story: Baasha, a political street artist, has been gruesomely murdered by unidentified assailants. Being a Muslim, his relatives and friends take his body to bury it in a nearby mosque. However, the mosque officials refuse to bury Baasha's body as the deceased never followed any religion apart from the fact that his mother is a Hindu. 

His acquaintances take his body to a burial ground where Hindus are cremated. But the officials there disagree to cremate him citing his religious identity. A Christian clergy, too, becomes a part of the commotion by claiming that Baasha's body belongs to their religion as the mother of the deceased had converted to Christianity a while ago. 

Review: Anti Indian is quite an unusual and catchy title for a movie, given the fact that the term is often used in a derogatory manner on social media by many to purposefully offend and provoke those with a different opinion when it comes to topics of national interests. 

With YouTuber Elamaran aka Blue Sattai Maaran making his directorial debut with the movie, all eyes are on him from the time the project was announced, thanks to the popularity his scathing film reviews have garnered over the years among Tamil movie buffs. A political satire, Maaran has attempted an out-of-the-box idea with the film.

The movie begins with the close up shot of Baasha's (played by Maaran himself) dead body, followed by an establishment shot of his mother and other acquaintances grieving over the unfortunate incident. Baasha, a political street artist and a known figure among local politicians, has been murdered by unknown goons.

Post the official police inquiry, his friends and relatives take his body to a mosque to bury it. But the officials there disagree to bury his body there as, the deceased, according to them, is someone who doesn't practice any religion. They also point out the fact that Baasha's mother is a Hindu, another reason for them not to allow his burial there.

This leads to a small communal tension which is nipped in the bud by a few cops. Upon the suggestion of an opportunist right wing politician, they take back his body and decide to bury it at a cremation ground which is meant for Hindus. 

But little did they expect that they would be disappointed this time, too, as the official there expresses his disapproval for burying the body of a Muslim. A group of Christians enter the scene, under the leadership of a priest, and start claiming the body of Baasha as the mother of the deceased had converted to Christianity sometime ago.

Despite several people in the film industry waiting to malign him, it was bold of Maaran to take up a story that would face the wrath of the Censor Board. The movie, which obtained U/A certificate, in spite of facing various troubles with the censor formalities, has managed to release with just one dialogue muted in it. 

With an unusual, never-before-heard subject, Maaran threw light on the religious anarchy prevailing in the society. How organized religions can manipulate the fate of people and the extent to which they degenerate shamelessly have been depicted in an engaging manner. The film also tries to make a statement on who the real anti Indians are in our society. Moreover, it is quite spine-chilling to believe that the sequences in the film are based on a real incident.

The hilarious, but thought-provoking dialogues and racy first half stand out in the film in which Aadukalam Naren, Radha Ravi, Charles Vinod, Jeyaraj and Muthuraman have come up with realistic and gripping performances. The no-holds-barred portrayal of religious leaders taking law in their hands and inciting violence deserves praise.

However, the latter half of the film falters due to excessive dialogue-oriented sequences, repetition of gaana songs and strictly okayish making. A religious riot which occurs at a crucial part of the film appears staged because of which the impact it was supposed to leave gets affected.

The long aerial shots which appear towards the beginning of the film was a treat to watch. The background score, however, could have been more effective. Had the latter half and making been more gripping, the movie would have been a wholesome entertainer.  

Verdict: Though the political satire is engaging only in parts, the filmmaker deserves praise for handling hard-hitting plot.

Anti Indian Movie Review: A scathing satire that doesn’t take sides

Rating: ( 3.5 / 5).

Not just fortune, even Tamil audiences favour the bold. Irrespective of the content’s quality, anything fearless -- be it an intimate romantic scene or a bunch of expletive dialogues -- that a filmmaker manages to get on the final cut after censor is mostly met with praise. Hence, I am sure Anti Indian , the directorial debut of YouTuber 'Blue Sattai' Maran, will be hailed because being unabashedly bold is its USP. It revels in its crudeness and audacity at the cost of being schematic and oversimplified. There are no ' kuriyeedu ' as everything is pretty straightforward and brazen - much like his reviews.

Director: Blue Sattai Maran

Cast: Jayaraj, Blue Sattai Maran, Radha Ravi, Aadukalam Naren, Muthuraman, Ghilli Maran, Vijay TV Bala

Anti Indian opens with a close-up of the face of Basha (Blue Sattai Maran). He has been murdered by unknown people for unknown reasons. The film or the characters don't bother much about finding the culprits. It is intentional and leaves us with a lot to ponder about. After a long delay, his brother-in-law Ezhumalai (Jayaraj), a local upcoming politician, gets the body for burial. If you wonder how ‘Ezhumalai’ is brother-in-law to ‘Basha’, it’s because the latter’s mother is born Hindu while his father is a Muslim. Due to the mixed religious identity of Basha, his body is neither accepted in a Muslim burial ground nor a Hindu crematory ground.

Parallelly, we see how the Chief Minister (Radha Ravi) and the police department are preparing for an upcoming by-election, which they are most likely to lose. While the opposition has the upper hand, superstar actor ‘Kabali’ can tilt the scale. So, the CM and the police have to come up with a plan to either win or stop the election altogether. The sequences involving the CM and the police officials create a sense of uneasiness because they discuss sinister plans with a matter-of-fact demeanor. As the issue of Basha’s body gets a bit of media attention, these men in power plan to use it for their benefit.

Since the massive Jallikattu protest of 2017, Tamil cinema has been increasingly toying with the idea of political conspiracy and police brutality. Yet, most of the films do so with a sense of caution. Even the recent blockbuster Maanaadu , which trods a similar route, was more about entertainment and less about the conflicts. That’s where Anti Indian distinguishes itself from the rest. This film doesn’t mince words. It is always on your face. Ezhumalai bears a saffron tilak on his head. His party leader is named Raja. However, it doesn’t take any side. It paints the Hindus, Muslims, Christians, media, police, and everyone in the film with the same brush. In a way, that turned out to be a concern as the voice of the director is unheard in the films as it is perennially making criticisms. Perhaps, the nameless, black-clad character (Ghilli Maran) is the voice of the director, who has no stake in the narrative other than taking digs at people. He wanders around asking problematic questions like the one he asks Ezhumalai: “How come all the leaders in your party are fair and the followers dark?” However, I wondered for all its boldness,  the film steered away from touching upon the caste issues. It cannot be a slip but a conscious decision for a filmmaker, who wants to make everything his target.

As far as Maran’s craft goes, the making is as straightforward as his ideas. With a limited budget, he has pulled off a decent film that seldom cares about nuances. There are no fancy shots or compositions that cry for attention. Aesthetically, Anti Indian might look inferior, but it compensates for it with content. All the film cares about is the story and I liked how it is mostly shown rather than told. There are expositions, but they are decently executed. I liked the idea of juxtaposing the impromptu gaana singing session at the funeral with police and politicians devising evil plans. It reminded me of Kaala ’s climax - maybe it was supposed to. However, there are tonal inconsistencies. Predominantly, the film tries to be a satire, but at times, it becomes more sober and realistic. Yet, by the end of Anti Indian , I found myself thinking about the unprecedented boldness of the film more than anything else.

As a YouTuber, Maran is notorious for his brazen and impertinent take on films, directors, and actors. Now, as a filmmaker, he goes for the men of religion, politics, and power with the same unabashedness. Anti Indian is an important film that sets a new benchmark in freedom of expression in Tamil cinema irrespective of whether or not one agrees with the film’s tone and idea.

Anti Indian Movie Review

Yep, Tamil cinema has finally witnessed the debut of sensational film critic Elamaran popularly knowns as Blue Sattai Maran. If there is one film critic that the story tellers in k-town loath so much it would be undoubtedly Elamaran. Literally, many film makers were waiting to tear the man apart when he makes his first film. If fact, many have even sworn in the past that they would do it. When this was the case, the news of Elamaran’s debut flick hit the internet immediately making its way in to the trending zone becoming the troll material. Surprisingly, the man seems to have dissolved the hatred that was held against him with his drama Anti Indian. So how has his much awaited Anti Indian come out? To know that let us get in to the movie review.

Anti Indian is centered around Baasha (Elamaran), a political advertisement wall painter. The film opens with the murder of Baasha. With the murder, things get messier because of his complex family structure. His father is a Muslim, and his mother a born Hindu but later shifted to Christianity. Problem erupts because of his mixed religious identity. After police procedures, Baasha’s friends takes his body to a nearby mosque for burial. To their shock, the authorities refuse to allot space citing that Baasha never practiced Islam and that his mother was a Hindu. One of Baasha’s relative Ezhumalai (Jeyaraj), a local newbie right wing politician receives the body and takes it to the Hindu cremating ground. Even there the officials deny to bury the body stating that he was a Muslim. A group of Christians enter the picture led by a priest claiming that Baasha’s body should be buried in their burial ground as his mother embraced Christianity.

Meanwhile, by election is declared on that constituency. The ruling party is on the verge of losing the election. The head of the party and the Chief Minister of the state (Radha Ravi) is desperate to win it. He deploys the police force to somehow overturn the situation and earn a victory. On parallel developments we have a superstar actor Kabali who’s decision can alter the election results. The Chief Minister along with the assistance of the police department concocts a plan. They either want to win the election or stop the election in case their defeat is evident by stirring up religious riots. As the uncertainty around the death of Baasha begins to get media traction, politicians place themselves in to the frames and politics erupts on the burial of the cadaver. Will people realize the dirty politics that is played behind the dead body of Baasha, who is going to bury the body at last is what makes the rest of the flick.

Director Elamaran in a recent interview recited the popular dialogue from Soorarai Pottru , “Jaichita Maara” when asked about how people have received his film. There could not be a better response than that. Not sure how many film makers would have gone with the title Anti Indian knowing the magnitude of political heat that would have come to the release of the film. Director Elamaran’s bravery has rewarded him quite well. Being point blank, Anti Indian does not have the technical power to be even considered as a film. The imperative aspects that are a must for a film like proper screenplay, good performances, cinematography, editing, nothing falls in place for the entertainer. Yet Anti Indian is entertaining. The strength of the film lies in the bold and razor-sharp dialogues.

The entertainer is built on a simple premise. But story teller Elamaran exhibits his adeptness in setting up situations and the cunning political angles to make a solid entertaining political satire out of Anti Indian. For instance, Baasha’s family background is smartly designed to create room to make a simple story knot work well. His family structure gives ample space for a truck load of satires. In fact, the whole film is based on this simple intelligent arrangement. Everything is simple about Anti Indian. It is this simplicity that makes the flick entertaining. There are no euphemisms and identity for us to work our brain. Elamaran goes with brutal honesty and direct about the politics he wants to discuss. It is one of the reasons, or perhaps the only reason why the audience have given such a warn response to the drama. The audience celebrate the entertainer not for its craft but because it is an honest flick from an honest film maker. It would be interesting to see where Elamaran goes from here.

Anti Indian Movie Poster

Director Elamaran as actor is the man, we are so used to seeing on his YouTube videos. He really does not make any effort to perform. He just mouths his dialogue just like a conversation that he would have with anyone in real life. Yet that is entertaining. Seems like he has landed on a lucky star at the moment. Actor Jeyaraj has done justice to his role. Actor Aadukalam Naren is effective as usual. Veteran actor Radha Ravi makes his presence felt. Actor Velu Prabhakaran is adequate. Actress Lollu Sabha Seshu is impactful. The rest of the cast has delivered a below par performance.

On the technical front, the film is quite weak. Elamaran debuts as a music director as well in Anti Indian. His tracks are pretty average. His background score is adequate for the entertainer. Cinematographer Kathiravan’s frames could have been better. The visuals look like the vintage marriage videos. Editor Sudharshan’s scissors should have been a lot sharper.

On the whole, Anti Indian marks Elamaran’s successful venture in to Tamil cinema but his sustainability remains in how he improves his craft.

Anti Indian Review: A Socio-Political Commentary That Could Have Done Without the Dramatics

The most entertaining part in  Anti Indian  arrives a little over an hour into the film. A man ( “Blue Sattai” C Elamaran as Basha) is dead, and the devout – across faiths – refuse him their cemeteries citing religious ambiguity. Even as his mother and uncle try to preserve his dignity in death, the various political establishments take note of the development and try to wedge their advantage in the upcoming by-elections.

The entertaining moment though, belongs to a worker who puts up canopies at social events. Basha’s uncle – Elumalai who’s swathed in orange – and Basha’s mother who’d coupled with a Muslim leading to an inter-faith by-product of their marriage, struggle to find a few feet of burial space. The worker though, goes on a fuck-all rant because it’s the third time he’s having to erect the canopy after two pseudo-burials – in such chaste Madras Tamil that it’s a laugh-out-loud moment. It’s in these instances of dark humour that  Anti Indian  shows some character.   

Otherwise, the film – written by Elamaran – is filled with dramatic overtures by the writer-director, who’s also styled himself with the now-popular prefix “blue sattai” in credits. Elamaran has also written the screenplay and made music for good measure – always a bad, bad idea. For someone who’s made a living doling out scathing – sometimes with a hint of truth – reviews about movies, Elamaran makes the rookie mistake of taking up one too many jobs within a production. But surprisingly, the story that Elamaran narrates does hold attention.

When  Anti Indian  opens – probably named thus due to the secularist messaging and what being secular is synonymous with in the country – Elamaran begins the tale just as he would a review. In the same voice, the same tenor, and the same let-me-make-it-simple-for-your-ears analogy. Something plucked out of or written for children and dumbed down enough that it ultimately turns into a story that you’d read in a badly-edited reprint of a book, devoid of any and all nuance.   

In a while though, you sense where Maran is going with the story – he’s chosen a route to appeal to the masses, to the humanity at large, and he sets the stage up. It’s funny in the parts that don’t try too hard to deliver lessons, or train the camera on the bereaved. Indeed, towards the end, Maran surprises us with some genuine theatre. And that’s where, in between all the sniffling and crying and bandying about in whites and cop outfits, not to mention a costume party involving three religions,  Anti Indian  unfolds – with moments here and there that engage.

Then, Radha Ravi emerges on screen. When the openings credits play, there’s a curious little apology to actors who’d auditioned but were not cast, and actors whose scenes have been edited out. It’s almost sweet, until Radha Ravi rolls up as the second member of the cast. It’s delicious irony to what Maran preaches in his writing, in his screenplay and the dialogues. He does care about people, his co-citizens; he wants them to be peaceful, lovely, diverse human beings who group together in a large bungalow and sing secular verses. But he’s also chosen sides in his film – a supposed socio-political commentary that has a singular agenda, and desperately bats [only] for religious unity.

Blue Sattai Maran's Anti Indian Movie Review

Anti Indian Movie Cast & Crew

Popular YouTube film reviewer, Blue Sattai Maran, who is known for his controversial movie reviews, has turned into a filmmaker with Anti Indian which has hit the screens today. Maran has written and directed the film and he has also scored the music.  Has Maran passed the litmus test? Check out!   

STORY: Anti Indian follows the story of Baasha (Blue Sattai Maran), a wall painter, whose mortal remains is not allowed to be cremated due to various reasons. The situation becomes the talk of the town and the politicians and our system make good use of the situation to their advantage. What was the fate of Baasha's mortal remains forms the rest of the plot of Anti Indian. 

SCREENPLAY, DIALOGUES, & DIRECTION:  Blue Sattai Maran shows good promise as a writer as the film has an interesting content that manages to hold our attention for a reasonable duration. He weaves his ideologies neatly into the screenplay, thereby writing some thought provoking dialogues. The occasional commentary on contemporary politics is sure to make a connection with the masses. The lines about today's media and religious politics hit the right chord. The writing is fresh, the premise is interesting, the conflict offers enough scope for drama, and everything with regards to the writing part is fairly decent. Anti Indian has an engaging first half with some good drama.  

On the flip side, Anti Indian has a faltering second half that doesn't have cohesiveness. There is one good scene, followed by an uninteresting scene and a needless gana song, and sequences like these make the second half quite problematic. The film would've stayed crispier if Maran had cut short the gana songs sequences as it goes a little too overboard. Also, the final chaos looked force-fitted and didn't completely blend along with the movie. The criticisms/dig on certain religions might not land well with the people and it is going to be a debatable topic. Maran could have lent more focus on the direction aspect of the movie as that is where the film majorly falls flat. The film needed an effective execution with an engaging screenplay in the second half and that would have made Anti Indian more complete.   

CAST:  Anti Indian does not have a lead character as such. Aadukalam Naren as a police officer leaves his stamp neatly. Radha Ravi appears in a role that is a cakewalk for him. 'Super Deluxe' Ramana, 'Vazhakku En' Muthuraman, and Velu Prabhakaran do their part well. Due credits to Jayaraj and Karna Raja who played 'Ezhumalai' and his leader respectively  - both of them deliver impressive performances. The other actors don't really leave a mark. 

TECHNICAL:   Maran's background score is functional, managing to lend support to the scenes. Visually, Anti Indian is inconsistent and one is not sure if that is due to the limited resources and low budget. The lighting lacks depth and more work could've gone inside that. The film seems to have been made on a shoestring budget and the visuals are suggestive of that. The edit looks neat in a few places and lacks smoothness in a few places.

SO? With an entertaining first half and an inconsistent second half, Anti Indian is a mixed bag!

Verdict Anti Indian definitely has flaws, but can be watched for its interesting content and bold dialogues.

Review by Bustardss

Feels like propaganda on religion opposition Failed to transmit the emotions

Review by Valeri6a ★★★

Could have made a shorter crisp version

Review by Santhosh ★★

Potential is sharp, writting is bit razor-igniting-safe but many will lose interest due to it's presentation, nevertheless you don't have any other option in liking it.

But technically there are issues. Just because i like it doesn't mean i can bear with it.

Review by yashwanth ★★★

Good dialogues but a quite stretched out screenplay,could have been shorter and crispier. Performances were good. Good debut by Blue sattai Maran.

Review by ashokk ★★½

Thought provoking political content but falls flat in its execution. Dialogues👌

Review by Antonyraj ★★½

Had a lot of potential but wasted due to the director's personal ideologies. Overall, it started well and ended in an average manner.

P.S. How the fuck can the director name the protagonist, who is a dead body, after one of the most iconic characters of an actor,and bash out the same actor personally in his movie!

Review by Premkumar Ethirajulu ★★★

Revisionist approach towards Political Satire genre that is sharp and straight - Maaran's way of saying that he deserves to comment on films and he doesn't have to abide by any conventional standards of Film criticization just like his film that refuses to stick to a template ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I wanted to avoid this film as much as possible as my hatred towards Blue sattai Maran kept growing because of the consistency manifested from his lousy approach in passing comments on films in the name of film review. He never understood the idea of film appreciation and crafts.

However that doesn't seem to have stopped Maaran to make a film around a not so catchy premise of funeral procedures and how…

Review by san_hitler ★★★

Blue shirt maaran Annan debut on this political satire is good dialogues were good Some said technically poor but it was a decent work story and direction is pretty good Overall one time watchable .

Characters using the word "otha" is gonna be my favourite genders

A fine work from blue shirt maaran

Hitler's rating:7.0/10

Review by Kalai ★★★★

First of all, let me make it clear. I hate Blue sattai Maran's YouTube reviews. I still believe his comments are reckless and his understanding of a movie is extremely poor. This is evident from his review of Uttama Villan. It was evident his reviews were just to get views, likes and comments. That was the last review I saw of his. And like enormous number of people when his movie was announced I could not wait to pound on his movie to vent out my frustration. Turns out I might have a new grown respect. I simply can't believe not only has he scripted, screen played and directed this movie he also did the music. Coming to the movie,…

Review by Ganesh ★★★½

A bold political satire made in an average way! Spoiler free review!

A Tamil movie starring Elamaran (*Blue sattai *Maran), Aadukalam Naren, Radha Ravi, Velu Prabhakaran, Suresh Chakravarthy. Story, screenplay, direction, music by Elamaran (debut in all departments). Theatrical release on December 10. OTT release is 28 days later as per this (https://twitter.com/tamiltalkies/status/1469171641179463684) tweet. The film talks about the opportunistic politics done with a dead body whose parents belong to different religions.

Politics in India can broadly be classified into two types - Electoral and Ideological. While the latter is the one which will make an actual difference to peoples’ lives **over the years**, the so called “difference” is what is promised in the former. Courtesy - humans are impatient…

Review by Lawliet ★½

Almost two and half hours of speech about three major religions in India. I slept for 20 mins in first half and 45 mins in second half. If someone had insomania please watch this film if this film doesn't make you sleep then no one in the world can save you. I rated this movie with one and half marks because i watched jail a day before.🥴🥴

Review by HonorZinc ★★

The religion politics has been handled straight to the point,but the overall execution is terrible. They tried to incorporate the livelihood of people into the story through songs and events, but it disturbs the actual crucial plot happening and feels like unedited in the final cut only to extend the runtime.

உலகம் சுற்றும் ஏஜென்ட்டின் ஆக்‌ஷன் அத்தியாயத்தையும், உள்ளூர் சேஸிங்கையும் சுற்றிச் சுழன்று படமாக்கியிருக்கிறது சித்தார்த் நுனியின் கேமரா.

தீவிரவாதத்தைத் தேடி அழிக்கும் தந்தைக்கும், தீவிரவாதியாகவே மாறி நிற்கும் மகனுக்கும் இடையிலான ‘தங்கப்பதக்க' ஆடு - புலி ஆட்டமே இந்த `தி கிரேட்டஸ்ட் ஆஃப் ஆல் டைம்!'

SATS என்ற சிறப்புத் தீவிரவாத ஒழிப்பு மற்றும் பாதுகாப்பு `அண்டர்கவர்' அதிகாரிதான் காந்தி (விஜய்). `இம்பாசிபிள்' மிஷன் ஒன்றின் தாக்கத்தால் தன் 5 வயது மகன் ஜீவனை இழந்து, நொறுங்கிப்போகிறார். பல வருடங்கள் கழித்து மகனை (இன்னொரு விஜய்) உயிரோடு சந்திக்கும் காந்திக்கும், அவர் ஸ்குவாடுக்கும் அடுத்தடுத்து அதிர்ச்சிச் சம்பவங்கள் அரங்கேறுகின்றன. பின்னணியில் இருக்கும் வில்லனை காந்தி கண்டுபிடித்து அழிப்பதே கதை!

Overrated Movie. Worst Movie. Not A Theatrical Movie. Wasting Time & Money. It's a Small OTT Or Television Movie. Please donot waste Time & Money. Make Sensible Movies. We all know Raghavan, Asif Ali & Aparna Bala Murali Krishnan are Fantastic Actors. But this is not a movie. It was a Cruelty to Audiance on the Onam Day. I'm a great movie watcher. But this movie has nothing to say. Moreover you a teaching or inspiring others, how to kill or do a crime and escape from the crime using medical backgrounds. This movie has to be stopped screening. Crime never pays. One day or the other, you will be prosecuted and will be sent you in jail. Do not glorify crime.
