Vijay means “Victory”

He has just been amazing all throughout his career. Starting from Naalaya Theerpu, getting through the likes of Rasigan, Deva, and others through to Poove Unakkaga, Kadaluku Mariyadhai, Kushi, Priyamanavale and then onto Thirumalai, Ghilli, Thirupachi, Sivakaasi, Pokkiri and now KURUVI. Vijay has gradually reached a position where no one can shake him, but only by himself.Vijay’s KURUVI has taken a bumper opening all over the world. Since this film comes from the cracking combination of Vijay, Dharani, Trisha and Vidyasagar, the film carries inevitable comparisons with the combo’s previous film Ghilli which is called as Vijay’s landmark film. The reports have suggested that the film doesnt quite match up to the standards of Ghilli. But nevertheless, the fans have been going ecstatic with Vijay and his performance, especially his sensational dancing which has set the screen on fire. He has also been complemented superbly by Vivek in the comedy department with Trisha and others giving adequate aid. Producer Udayanidhi Stalin makes a thundering start and is said to have produced the film in a very grand manner. The film has opened to a mixed response, but speaking frankly, tell me one recent Vijay film that hasnt opened to such a mixed response? His films are meant to entertain his fans who love his style of movie making and naturally such style of movies will its share of critics.In this film directed by Dharani, Vijay again plays to the gallery mixing his usual firebrand style of entertainment combining comedy, action, dance, glamour and sentiments bringing together a very heady cocktail of pure unadulterated entertainment. The reports from the distributors and the theatre owners have been very impressive for the first weekend. Of course any film’s real success lies in its ability to run for long periods of time and attracting all types of audience. But KURUVI has embarked on this mission in grand style, and the fans are confident that KURUVI will be another grand success for Vijay and will add to his enviable list of hit films.VFN congragulates the Kuruvi team for crossing the first hurdle. We wish them more success and hope that KURUVI goes on to become a big blockbuster.
