Rajinikanth as a doctor - that's a role I didn't know I needed! Hope the script does justice to his talent. After 'Coolie', expectations are high. But honestly, I wish they'd focus more on fresh stories instead of just the star power. Still, excited for Simran's reunion with him after so long! ❤️
From Philadelphia, been following Indian cinema for a while. Rajinikanth's global appeal is incredible - a doctor role after that gritty 'Coolie' performance shows his range. Anirudh's music will be a cherry on top. Hope this gets a worldwide release!
A doctor with swag - Thalaiva style! The title 'Dharman' sounds fresh and meaningful. But I hope the makers don't just rely on fan service. Rajini sir deserves quality content at this stage. Let's see if Ashwath Marimuthu can deliver a memorable film. All the best to the team! 🙏
As someone who's only seen Rajinikanth in 'Robot' and 'Coolie', this doctor role has me intrigued! The casting of Simran and Raashii Khanna sounds great too. Indian cinema's biggest star taking on a medical drama - count me in! When does it release?
'Ketta Paiyan' vibes in the poster - love it! But I'm a bit skeptical about the director. Ashwath Marimuthu's previous work was okayish, not sure if he can handle Thalaiva's mass appeal. Let's hope Kamal Haasan's production magic works. Anyway
