Paruthiveeran came as a whiff of fresh air at a time when the film industry was churning out vacuous movies. This film was bold attempt and a trendsetter in its own way. Based on a real-life incident, Paruthiveeran was a perfect launchpad for Karthi, son of actor Sivakumar and brother of Surya.
It is worth mentioning here that this movie made it to many international film festivals, which made others notice the Tamil film industry. Paruthiveeran, a critically acclaimed movie, was also a commercial success and is marching towards 300 days.
It has been a trend for long to name Hollywood movies being dubbed in Tamil with titles of Tamil hit films. The famous Hollywood film, 300, which was dubbed in Tamil was also renamed 300 Paruthiveerargal to attract more crowd.
But with Paruthiveeran reaching 300 days looks like the prophecy has come true.
