With the Pongal festival just round the corner, celebrations are already on in full swing for Superstar Rajinikanth's fans, as Thalaivar's Darbar released on January 9th and is going great at the theatres! This movie, directed by AR Murugadoss, is bankrolled by Allirajah Subaskaran under his Lyca Productions banner! Nayanthara plays the female lead in this movie, which also has Suniel Shetty, Nivetha Thomas, Yogi Babu and a number of others in vital roles! This movie has been receiving mixed reviews with some people stating that apart from Rajni's energy, there isn't much in Darbar, as a movie!
All the people who are slamming Darbar have now been given a strong reply from director Suseenthiran! In a handwritten note on his Vennila Productions notepad, Suseenthiran has stated that he loved Darbar and that both Rajinikanth and AR Murugadoss have given their best in this movie. He also went on to praise different aspects of the movie, while strongly stating that some people are spreading negativity about Darbar, unnecessarily. He condemned this and mentioned that just the first half was more than enough to justify the money he paid for his ticket!
Suseenthiran was also all praise for Nivetha Pethuraj and Yogi Babu's acting and had a special mention for the touching emotional sequences in Darbar. The director had a busy 2019 with two of his directorials - Kennedy Club and Champion, hitting the screens and he also made his acting debut as a lead with Suttu Pidikka Utharavu, alongside Mysskin and Vikranth.
