Bollywood producer Boney Kapoor's ambitious Tamil project Nerkonda Paarvai that is remake of Amitabh Bachchan and Taapsee Pannu starrer Pink made it to the theatres today. The film that stars Thala Ajith and Shraddha Srinath in the lead roles got a thumbs up from the viewers. Nerkonda Paarvai is a powerful title for a film which talks about women and the struggles they face in life. In English, it means the direct gaze.
Nerkonda Paarvai is Tamil superstar Ajith’s second film to release this year after Viswasam. The central theme of Nerkonda Paarvai is consent. And the story follows a courtroom drama and the efforts of a lawyer to save three girls from public character assassination following a sexual assault attempt. Like Pink the movie makesa oot pint on victim-blaming/shaming in sexual violence cases.
Ajith will be essaying the central role of a lawyer, which was originally played by veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan.
Shraddha Srinath who played Taapse's part on Nerkonda Paarvai said, "Watched the 4 am show of #NerkondaPaarvai today at Rohini. The air was electric. The fans were high on excitement and love for their Thala. I have never received such a warm welcome as the one I received this morning," tweeted the actor.
She added, "And then the show began. It's weird saying this being part of the team, but I LOVED OUR MOVIE. Everyone's performance was outstanding. Each and every single person made you feel some emotion for them. Be it sympathy, be it disgust, be it anger, be it fear."
Here are some of the early reactions:
