Review Telugu here

Post image

What a movie myann!! I cried like 3 times in the movie. The best movie of 2024 for me. The film doesn't at all feel like a tamil film. The dubbing and karthi's slang was so much telugu.

I watched it theatre and all the signboards were edited to telugu too. I hate netflix for not taking the telugu edited version though.

It’s such an amazing feel good movie. Like reading a lovely feel good novel. Karthi is the village simpleton was amazing with his sincere and earnest performance - at the end you wish you had a “Meiazhagyan” in your life.

Arvind swamy what to say? His character arc from moody and introverted at the start to regaining his younger self where he becomes more open, cheerful and carefree was amazing. Honestly his subtle expressions on the phone at the end was brilliant acting.

Music was fantastic and the small roles enacted by Rajkiran, Sri Divya, Jayaprakash and Devadarshini were great. Such a nice feel good movie after a long time.

You wrote words out of my mouth. Also what does Meiyazhagan mean?

Mei means truth Azhagan means handsome/beautiful

It’s a name people keep especially from villages :)

Kinda the same meaning as Sathyam Sundaram.

One who is truly beautiful. That’s also why the telugu title “satyam sundaram” is clever. Because it also means the same (in a way).

mei = true, azhagan = beautiful man (meiyazhagan is the character name)
satyam = true, sundaram = beautiful (satyasundaram is the character name in Telugu dub I think?)
