I'll be reviewing it soon. Yashthepunisher (talk) 12:44, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Lead

• "..while Nagesh and Rajinikanth, in his debut,." In whose debut? Rajnikanth? Nagesh?

Rajinikanth. How do I write? --Kailash29792 (talk) 08:20, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

"and debutant Rajinikanth. Yashthepunisher (talk) 05:01, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

• The word 'revolves' is spelled twice while mentioning the plot here. Try replacing at one instance.

After reading the plot, do you think the sentence "The rest of the story revolves around the four characters and their problems" is better off removed? It seems the earlier sentence conveys the premise. --Kailash29792 (talk) 08:20, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Yes remove it. Yashthepunisher (talk) 05:01, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Plot

• What are 'revolutionary activities'? It's a bit vague.

Vigilante activities. He basically indulges in violence against wrongdoers. --Kailash29792 (talk) 08:20, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Then it should be mentioned, for the sake of clarity. Yashthepunisher (talk) 05:01, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

I've mentioned only one in short: the one that led to Prasanna's arrest: since the price of rice has increased, he stopped a lorry carrying rice, distributed the rice to the poor, and burned the lorry before the police could come. See how it is. --Kailash29792 (talk) 07:28, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

• "Before Prasanna's arrival, Bhairavi's adopted daughter Ranjani, who believes she was adopted by her" Who was adopted by whom? Sorry I lost touch. Try writing 'latter' or 'former' in this case.

? Yashthepunisher (talk) 05:01, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

• "Bhairavi is forced to accept Prasanna's proposal when he ends his 'revolutionary activities'. Again. Was he a freedom fighter or something?

Close enough.

• I haven't seen the film maybe that's why some of the sentences are going over my head.

Maybe you could watch the Hindi remake for clarification since this film does not have any subtitled version online (it had when it was on Prime Video). --Kailash29792 (talk) 08:20, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Development

• "He does not answer Vetala's final riddle as it does not have one." I just didn't get it.

The source says, "Vikramaditya keeps quiet not because he does not know the answer, but because there is no answer." What do you suggest? --Kailash29792 (talk) 08:20, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Try rephrasing the sentence as the fact in the source. Yashthepunisher (talk) 05:01, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

• "Kamal Haasan was cast the protagonist Prasanna." --> was cast as the protagonist.

Done. --Kailash29792 (talk) 08:20, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

• "portrayed Prasanna's father Mahendran". Words like 'portrayed' should be avoided unless its a pre-existing character from a book or play.

Is played better? I wrote just that. --Kailash29792 (talk) 08:20, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Yeah, its better now. Yashthepunisher (talk) 05:01, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

• "The film was the debut of Shivaji Rao Gaekwad, who later became one of Tamil cinema's biggest stars, Rajinikanth." Was he credited as 'Shivaji' in the film? If not then what's the point? It simply reads like a sentence from a fan book.

His original name must be mentioned, followed by the fact that Balachander gave him a stage name. --Kailash29792 (talk) 08:20, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

• "ரஜனிகாந்த்" Are indic scripts allowed in an article?

Yes, as long as they don't violate WP:INDICSCRIPT. --Kailash29792 (talk) 08:20, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

• "The camera was moved manually by the cameraman". Cameraperson. These words should be gender-neutral.

Done. --Kailash29792 (talk) 08:20, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

• "the first dialogue he speaks during this scene is "Bhairavi Veedu Idhu Thaana?" (Is this Bhairavi's house?)." How is this relevant? Is this an iconic dialogue?

Not really, so removed. Though I believed one day it would be iconic, giving Rajinikanth's current status as a superstar. --Kailash29792 (talk) 08:20, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

• I feel the 'Legacy' and 'In popular culture' sections can be merged.

Gladly, but after the merger, there needs to be a sentence for coherence. Something like, "the film has been referenced in other Rajinikanth films". What do you suggest? --Kailash29792 (talk) 08:20, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Yes merge it with that sentence that you've mentioned. Yashthepunisher (talk) 05:01, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Done. --Kailash29792 (talk) 07:28, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

That's all. Resolve these issues and I'd be happy to promote this article. Yashthepunisher (talk) 06:57, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
