Rating: ( 2.5 / 5).
It’s like Karthik Subbaraj desired to make two different Tamil films set in the West. One, a solemn film—like Iraivi —that would bleed for immigrants and refugees and Eelam Tamils. It’s the sort of film that would declare that those that take to violence to protect the vulnerable mustn’t be labelled terrorists—a plea, I imagine, in favour of the Eelam Tigers. This first film would also take on weighty topics like racism, conservative politics, government bills and what it takes to pass them, unemployment… If this seems burdensome enough, Karthik, it seems, also wanted to make another film: A globe-trotting gangster film that would have our Madurai gangster clash with his equivalent from London, and explore this strange relationship and with it, the linguistic, culinary, cultural differences of their respective regions (Note how Suruli is taken aback when he sees an Indian kiss his girlfriend).
Director: Karthik Subbaraj
Cast: Dhanush, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Joju George, James Cosmo
Both stories seem like exciting possibilities in the hands of an accomplished filmmaker like Karthik Subbaraj. With films like Iraivi and Mercury , he has established his credentials in executing a film with social themes. As for the second story, it’s pretty much his default zone. In his six-feature-film-old career so far, he has already shown his love for shooting violence in aesthetically pleasant ways. So, why does Jagame Thandhiram never really take off? It’s because he’s tried to fuse these films together into one, and in doing so, has created a film in which one story doesn’t really allow the other to thrive. An attempt at wordplay concerning ‘ thaamboolam ’ and ‘ thaampathyam ’ failing to take off, is an early warning, and a harbinger of things to come.
Jagame Thandhiram doesn’t ever thrive in its violence and humour as, say, a Jigarthanda did. Dhanush tries—especially with those malicious grins. But the problem is, I couldn’t ever get a hang of his character, Suruli. You get fleeting details, like when his mother speaks of not being a good parent. However, the film leaves you with more questions than answers about him. Who is he really? What’s with his love for cooking? What’s with the murderous streak? What’s with all the ruthlessness and desire for money? And if he were really so ruthless, how is it that he’s so profoundly moved by a brief narration from Atilla (Aishwarya Lekshmi)—a throwback device from the 90s films in which filmmakers would have characters narrate their stories like in a play…
This love story itself feels manipulative and flimsy. The film asks you to relate to the profound emotion felt by Atilla, but then, this relationship is never built on any profundity. Suruli catches a glimpse of this woman and declares that he’s in love and would like marriage. Atilla, whose singing, it seems, is just for a single scene, randomly agrees to sit in a conversation with him. And before you know it, she’s supposedly developed feelings for him. I didn’t buy this important relationship for even a minute in this film—let alone be moved by the developments caused by it.
Similar superficial exploration is offered to the Eelam conflict, mainly discussed through passing dialogues and brief introductions to mainly minor characters. A major character is Sivadoss (Joju George), but then again, there isn’t really time in which to get introduced to him. We hear of him through an easy flashback narration, in which a political tragedy is archived into a single blast, in which the trauma and struggle of a homeless woman is relegated to some quick shots of her being moved about from country to country, before she settles in London. The flashback, in fact, has the effect of making you feel that her journey was not as uncomfortable as one might perhaps have imagined.
This rather cold film needed to tell us more about its characters. Who is Peter (James Cosmo), for instance? Apart from his generic, racist comments, what are his deep views about people of colour? What’s the extent of his influence in the government? While the English of the London characters in this film is thankfully quite all right, they still don’t seem to comfortably belong in the universe of this Tamil film. Something about their movement, their gestures, their dialogue delivery, their non-verbal responses… Jagame Thandhiram is an improvement in how integrated they are, but clearly, we still have a long way to go.
And yet, let me register that Karthik Subbaraj’s latest film means well. It demands that the world treat refugees better. It stands with Eelam Tamils; it empathises with those who take up arms on their behalf. It stands against racism, and I doubt there has been another Tamil film in which a character has used the word ‘xenophobia’. It even notes the irony of these Indians, so ill-treated in foreign countries, oppressing each other through caste divisions. It may be a ‘man’s film’ but it still makes an attempt to elevate Aishwarya Lekshmi’s character above the purpose of just being the romantic interest of Suruli—even if it isn’t exactly successful in achieving this. The problem with Jagame Thandhiram isn’t the motive; it’s the execution.
Among the pleasures of a Karthik Subbaraj film is the reuse of old Tamil songs to enterprising effect. Perhaps for the first time in his filmography, I didn’t particularly care for these homages in Jagame Thandhiram . You hear songs like ‘ Kalyana maalai ’, ‘ Kadhalin deepam ondru ’, ‘ Veetukku veetukku vaasapadi venum ’, ‘ Oruvan Oruvan ’, ‘ Sambo, siva sambo ’… and there are dialogues that speak of films like ‘ Nayagan ’ and ‘ Citizen ’. But it all feels rather cursory—like he was checking off items in his auteur checklist. Homages. Check. Murder and mayhem. Check. Stylised gunfire. Check.
And yet, for all the gunfire, this film feels like a misfire, despite Dhanush’s best attempts to light up this film. His eyes drip menace and a certain insanity. And in many, many scenes, it’s impossible not to spot the Rajinikanth influences. He communicates this through lopsided grins and eyebrow raises and in dialogue-delivery too—like when a corner of his mouth moves and he utters, “ Verum panam… vachikunga .” And yet, the film, confused as it seems between being a sensitive film about refugees and an entertainingly violent film about gangsters, does him no great service. In trying to be both, it ends up being neither.
In a Jigarthanda , it didn’t matter that we didn’t feel emotionally connected to ‘Assault’ Sethu. But in a Jagame Thandhiram —like in an Iraivi —it’s important to care for the characters. This film wants you to feel for the plight of the refugees and the Eelam Tamils. And in such a film, it’s a problem that I couldn’t get myself to truly care about any character. The body count increases, but it doesn't matter. Suruli could have died, and it still would not have mattered. It doesn’t help that the characters in this film themselves don’t seem to be taking certain events too seriously. Close friends and aides get murdered, and yet, bizarrely, they seem quick to forgive. Be it Sivadoss (Joju George) or Deepan (Kalaiyarasan) or Dharani (Deepak Paramesh) or strangely, even Suruli himself, these characters move past betrayals quite quickly. When these men don’t care about their tragedies as deeply, why must we?
I’m convinced that Jagame Thandhiram is Karthik Subbaraj’s weakest film yet, but it’s still a Karthik Subbaraj film. And so, you do get treated to some lovely flourishes of filmmaking, aided by Santhosh Narayanan’s eclectic music. Watch a kidnapping scene get brilliantly executed in a series of quick shots of various characters speaking in one-liners. I also loved that big murder scene near the halfway mark and enjoyed how the camera circles the characters over and over again, as their reactions change. The event itself wasn’t a big surprise for me, but how it’s shot makes it all quite enjoyable, nevertheless. I may not remember Jagame Thandhiram for many things, but I won’t be forgetting in a hurry that the film still showed us the unlikely visual of a Tamil gangster going ballistic in an alien land being pounded by snow. And of James Cosmo being told how to eat parotta with salna .

Karthik Subbaraj is the writer and director of the 2021 Indian Tamil-language action thriller film Jagame Thandhiram (transl. The Universe is a ruse), which is produced by YNOT Studios and Reliance Entertainment.
Dhanush, James Cosmo, Joju George, Aishwarya Lekshmi, and Kalaiyarasan are among the film’s stars. It’s Cosmo’s first Indian film and George’s first Tamil film. A Madurai gangster is enlisted in the movie to assist a British criminal lord in eliminating a rival, but he is later taken aback by the ethical conundrums that arise.
The project was first announced in April 2016 and awarded to Thenandal Studio Limited. However, the production house’s financial issues caused the project to be shelved. In February 2018, it was brought back to life once more when YNOT Studios purchased the film rights.
Following a formal announcement in July 2019, the movie started production in September and wrapped up in December 2019, shooting in London, Madurai, Rameshwaram, and Jaipur. Santhosh Narayanan wrote the soundtrack and songs, while Shreyas Krishna handled the photography and Vivek Harshan handled the editing.
The COVID-19 epidemic caused Jagame Thandhiram’s planned May 1, 2020, theater release to be postponed indefinitely. In February 2021, the filmmakers decided against releasing the movie only in theaters, opting instead for a global direct-to-streaming distribution on June 18, 2021, via Netflix. It was dubbed and released in 190 countries, including 17 languages.
Critics gave the movie mixed reviews; they complimented the technical aspects, soundtrack, musical score, cinematography, and performances by the cast (especially Dhanush, Cosmo, and George), but they also criticized the screenplay and pacing
“Jagame Thandhiram” is a Tamil-language action thriller film directed by Karthik Subbaraj, released in 2021. The plot revolves around a skilled but carefree gangster named Suruli, played by Dhanush, whose life takes a turn when he is sent to London by his boss to take over the operations there. Suruli initially struggles to adapt to the new environment and its challenges.
In London, Suruli becomes entangled in the conflict between a multinational corporation led by Peter Sprott (played by James Cosmo) and a group of Sri Lankan Tamil immigrants represented by their leader, Sivadoss (played by Joju George). As Suruli navigates this complex situation, he faces moral dilemmas and choices that force him to confront his own identity and values.
The film explores themes of identity, belonging, and the clash between tradition and modernity, all set against the backdrop of the London underworld. It combines elements of action, drama, and social commentary, with Dhanush delivering a charismatic performance in the lead role.

Movie: Jagame Thandhiram (Tamil/OTT) Rating: 2/5 Cast: Dhanush, Aishwarya Lakshmi, James Cosmo, Joju George, Kalayirasan, and others Music: Santhosh Narayanan Cinematography: Shreyas Krishna Editing: Vivek Harsan Produced by: S Sashikanth Written and directed by: Karthik Subbaraj Streaming on: Netflix Release Date: June 18, 2021
The names of Dhanush and Karthik Subbaraj are enough to get excited about for film lovers. No wonder that “Jagame Thandhiram” has generated a lot of buzz.
The Tamil-language film is now streaming on Netflix, which is one of the biggest releases on the OTT platform this year.
Let’s find out its merits and demerits.
Story: Suruli (Dhanush), a local rowdy in Madurai, is asked to leave the city for a month as he landed in a trouble after killing a businessman.
Around the same time, an NRI comes with an offer that if he works for Peter Sprott (James Cosmo), a politically affluent honcho in London, for a month, he would get plenty of money.
Suruli agrees and starts working for Peter, whose nemesis is a Tamilian gangster Sivadoss (Joju George).
Suruli quickly rises as a gangster, and also falls in love with a Tamilian singer Attila (Aishwarya Lekshmi).
Peter also wants the bill BICORE, meant against the immigrants, to be passed in the parliament, and trying to eliminate Sivadoss.
Due to certain incidents, Suruli is forced fit against Peter, his boss. What happens next?
Artistes’ Performances: As a boisterous gangster, Dhanush is in his element. He has shown a lot of swag enacting a Madhurai gangster in London, also paid tribute to his father-in-law superstar Rajinikanth by following certain expressions.
James Cosmo, who appeared in "Game of Thrones", is suited to the role of a racist mob boss but his character ends up as a caricature in the second half.
Aishwarya Lekshmi is okay, but the romantic thread on Dhanush and her is not explored much.
Joju George, who was terrific in the recent Malayalam movie ‘Nayatttu’, once again shines in a brief but important role.
Technical Excellence: Director Karthik Subbaraj’s strong point has always been extracting the best from his technical crew. He stylishly shoots the regular scenes. Shreyas Krishna is perfectly tuned to his vision and has given terrific visuals.
The fight scenes set in London are truly international. Santhosh Narayanan’s background score is another attraction. Editing should have been crispier.
Highlights: Dhanush’s style Cinematography and music
Drawback: Predictable narration Lengthy runtime Indulgent scenes Boring first half
Analysis Gangster dramas have stopped throwing surprises for audiences because many filmmakers have explored this genre from all possible angles.
The story of Suruli, and his journey from being a local thug in Madurai to a hired gangster in London and redemption thereafter, is no different.
“Jagame Thandiram”, directed by Karthik Subbraj of “Pizza” and “Petta”, is essentially a gangster drama but the director has cleverly blended the struggle of Srilankan Tamils and immigrant issue to his regular gangster story.
However, despite having a strong idea, Karthik Subbaraj beats around the bush for a long time and the actual point comes much later in the film. Before exploring the main point of ‘home’ and immigrant issues, “Jagame Thandiram” depends on usual gangster action sequences.
We are made to believe that the film is about Suruli’s rise as a gangster in London and his face-off with Peter.
It also gives an impression that Suruli may turn double rat for both Peter and his rival and the story might explore that front. But that is not what the film about.
After going all over the place, Karthik Subbaraj comes to the main point in the last act. The proceedings struggle to keep us invested.
Although Dhanush tries to save the film, the slow-paced drama doesn’t engage us. Two action episodes are stylishly shot.
One comes before the interval, involving Dhanush, Joju, and Cosmo. The other is the pre-climax fight. These stunts and the terrific cinematography are the best in this predictable gangster drama.
The villain’s characterization is not strong enough. After all the hype, the villain turns into a caricature, and the abrupt ending with the dialogue – “you can only start the war, but can’t finish it”, leaves unsatisfied.
All in all, “Jagame Thandhiram” doesn’t live up to expectations. Despite having a stylish presentation, it is a big disappointment. It is a weak effort from Karthik Subbaraj.
Bottom-line: Lacks Appeal

Release date : June 18, 2021 123telugu.com Rating : 2.25/5
Starring : Dhanush, James Cosmo, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Kalaiyarasan, Joju George and others
Director : Karthik Subbaraj
Producer : S. Sashikanth
Cinematography : Shreyaas Krishna
Music : Santhosh Narayanan
Editor : Vivek Harshan
National award-winning Tamil star Dhanush and talented director Karthik Subbaraj’s much-talked-about crime drama, Jagame Thandhiram, has finally had its digital premiere on Netflix earlier today amid a lot of hype and expectations.
Even though Jagame Thandhiram was supposed to hit screens in May initially, the COVID second wave and the subsequent lockdown had forced its makers to skip the theatrical release and opt for a direct OTT release. Let’s see how the film is.
Suruli (Dhanush) is a reckless and flamboyant gangster in Madurai. He also runs a small hotel. He lands himself in trouble after he kills a person. Suruli’s boss asks him to go underground until the tension eases.
That’s when Suruli is approached by a couple of henchmen from London to unearth a local gangster named Sivadas (Joju George). Suruli heads to London and joins his new boss Peter (James Cosmo), who is vehemently against immigrants.
While chasing down Sivadas and his gang, Suruli falls in love with Athila (Aishwarya Lekshmi) and proposes to her. Soon, Suruli faces the murky reality of the immigrants and their decades long struggle for identity. Will Suruli oppose his boss Peter and fight for the immigrants? You have to watch the movie to know the rest of the story.
Plus Points
Dhanush as the flamboyant village youth who lands in London shines in his role. In fact, he shoulders the entire film with his spirited performance. He is at complete ease in the Madurai as well as the London episodes. He is effortless in dances and fights, as usual.
Acclaimed Malayalam actor Joju George once again gives a commendable performance and makes a striking impression. Game of Thrones fame James Cosmo’s presence adds depth to the film. Malayalam actress Aishwarya Lekshmi is elegant and emotes well in her role of a singer. Other actors too make their presence felt in their given roles.
Minus Points
Lackluster script and screenplay are the main drawbacks of Jagame Thandhiram. After starting off the film on an interesting note, and following it up with an engaging Madurai episode, writer and director Karthik Subbaraj slows down the proceedings when the story heads back to London.
Too many characters, incoherent characterisations, especially for the female leads, and pointless scene setups act as roadblocks to the narrative. As a result, the film’s main objective of highlighting the immigrants plight is lost in translation.
Technical Aspects
Acclaimed Tamil composer Santhosh Narayanan’s blazing background score is one of the main highlights of Jagame Thandhiram. A couple of songs, Rakita Rakita and the title track Suruli, stand out from the rest of the album. Cinematography too takes a major credit for making JT look top-class and stylish. Shreyaas captures the London underbelly quite well. The main plotline of the film and the rich production values are the other highlights of JT.
Unfortunately, Jagame Thandhiram promises a lot with its unique storyline that’s never been explored in Tamil Cinema and the star cast, but ends up delivering too little. The film clearly falls short of the high expectations it has set prior to its release and ends up as one of the major disappointments of this year so far. Dhanush’s energetic performance will impress his fans, but the snail-paced narration will test your patience. Do keep your expectations low if you are planning to watch this action drama this weekend.
