Interesting to see a film tackle the impact of a global event on common people in India. The trailer looks gripping. Hope the emotional scenes with Mamitha Baiju are as powerful as the action. Vignesh Raja impressed with 'Por Thozhil', expecting another good one.

Dhanush as a bank robber is a fresh look! The cast is stellar with Suraj Venjaramoodu and KS Ravikumar. The cat-and-mouse chase promises good thrills. GV Prakash's music in the background of the trailer already sets the mood. Definitely a watch.

While the premise is compelling, I hope the film doesn't romanticize bank robbery, even if it's for survival. It's a sensitive topic. That said, the trailer is well-cut and the period setting seems authentic. Will wait for the reviews.

Yaar, this takes me back! The Gulf War did hit us hard. Petrol prices shot up and there was a sense of panic. If the film captures that atmosphere correctly along with a solid story, it will be a winner. Dhanush never disappoints.

Good to see films moving beyond routine love stories. This has social relevance wrapped in an action drama. The combo of Alfred Prakash and Vignesh Raja on writing duties is promising. Hope the execution matches the interesting trailer.
