InterviewMadonne Ashwin, who directed ‘Maaveeran’, speaks on how he views cinema, not compromising a person’s dignity on screen, crediting the inspirations behind the film in its end titles, and more.Madonne AshwinMadonne Ashwin’s second feature Maaveeran has charmed many, and the director seems to be firmly set on the path of making films that are different yet fall within the commercial genre. A local politician’s attempt to move the people of a slum into substandard accommodation, citing ‘development’, forms the background of the Sivakarthikeyan-starrer Maaveeran. A timid illustrator Sathya (Sivakarthikeyan) prefers to lie low and not raise his voice against injustice, but a mind voice (Vijay Sethupathi) nudges him to discover the hero in him. Ashwin’s debut Mandela bagged two National Awards (Best Debut Film and Best Screenplay - Dialogue), but what people remember and thank the director for most is for gifting comedian Yogi Babu...

ReviewSivakarthikeyan has certainly grown as an actor, and the action choreography in the film is its highlight.YouTube screengrabIn 2021, Basil Joseph gave us Minnal Murali, a superhero who wears a Kerala thorthu and runs around in a lungi. It’s only in the climax that he gets his skinsuit and cape. Pulling off a feat like this without the intimidating budgets of DC and Marvel is a superhero act in itself, and Minnal Murali worked largely because the director knew just how ambitious they could get with the premise. Madonne Ashwin’s idea of a superhero in Maaveeran is even simpler – this guy doesn’t even need a cape. All he hears is a voice in his head, and he knows exactly what to do. The simplicity of the idea is brilliant, and Ashwin succeeds in executing it with only a few bumps along the way. The title comes from...

ReviewThe film, directed by debut filmmaker Madonne Ashwin, is a satire on elections and aims to serve as a reminder to the electorate to vote wisely.Sowmya RajendranScreengrabMandela premiered on television two days before Tamil Nadu was set to vote, and a day before on Ott platform Netflix. The timing could not have been more perfect. The film, directed by debut filmmaker Madonne Ashwin, is a satire on elections and aims to serve as a reminder to the electorate to vote wisely. Yogi Babu has proved to be a fine actor in films where he has been allowed to perform beyond the usual body shaming comedy. In Mandela, the actor is understated as Smile aka Ilichavayan who goes on to be renamed as Nelson Mandela. The film is set in a Tamil Nadu village called Soorankudy where two warring caste groups, the Vadakkoorans and Therkkoorans, cannot see eye to eye.
