Karnan starts streaming on Amazon Prime Video; Rave reviews pour in for the Dhanush starrer
Dhanush starrer ‘Karnan’ has started streaming on Amazon Prime Video. As expected, the initial response from all those who missed the film from theatres have been highly positive. Netizens, particularly non-Tamilians, are raving about the film. It is already rated by many as one of the best Indian films of the year.
‘Karnan’ directed by Mari Selvaraj is a rural-based drama that is partly inspired by real life incidents. The film is hard-hitting as it speaks about oppression, custody violence and institutional discrimination. While Dhanush played the titular role, the film also stars Rajisha Vijayan, Lal, Lakshmipriya Chandramouli, Azhagar Perumal, Natarajan Subramanian, Gouri Kishan and Yogi Babu in important roles.
Upon its theatrical release in April, the film received widespread critical acclaim. It also emerged as a huge commercial success. Despite the pandemic and audience restriction, the film managed to end up as the biggest blockbuster in Dhanush’s career till date.
