Veteran actor Kamal Haasan has given a strong thumbs-up to the upcoming film Maareesan, starring Fahadh Faasil and Vadivelu, calling it the “inventive, spirited cinema” he loves.
A Superstar’s Seal of Approval
Kamal Haasan recently took to X (formerly Twitter) to share his thoughts on Maareesan, even before its official release. He revealed he had already watched the film and was thoroughly impressed by its storytelling.
Haasan praised the movie’s ability to “dance effortlessly between wit and depth,” noting it left him laughing, thinking, and admiring its craftsmanship. He made sure to congratulate the team on their “delightful creation.”
He further elaborated that beneath the humor, Maareesan offers a “socially conscious lens on human emotion” and keenly observes the “darker shadows of our society.” This blend, he stated, is precisely the kind of cinema he is drawn to, both as a viewer and a creator.
Fahadh and Vadivelu Reunite
Maareesan brings together the formidable acting talents of Fahadh Faasil and Vadivelu once again. Their last collaboration, the critically acclaimed Maamannan (2023), was a commercial success, earning Rs 52 crore at the box office.
Fans are already buzzing with anticipation across social media platforms. Many believe that if Fahadh Faasil chooses a script, it inherently has a strong storyline, hinting at another potential hit for the duo.
What’s Maareesan All About?
Directed by Sudheesh Sankar, Maareesan promises a unique and engaging plot. The film revolves around two distinct characters: one, a skilled thief, and the other, a person bravely battling Alzheimer’s disease.
This intriguing premise suggests a narrative that will skillfully balance comedic moments with more profound, dramatic elements, keeping audiences entertained and on the edge of their seats.
