On August 23, Mari Selvaraj’s feature film debut, Vaazhai, was released. The movie’s plot won over both reviewers and viewers with favourable comments. October will mark the film’s digital launch following a successful theatrical run.
Mari Selvaraj’s film, a rural drama, will be available on Disney+ Hotstar starting on October 11. OTT will debut Vaazhai in a number of languages, including Bengali, Marathi, Hindi, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada.
The children’s drama film Vaazhai, directed by Mari Selvaraj, draws inspiration from actual occurrences. Not only did the movie appeal to the general public, but a number of A-list members of the film industry also commended the director’s vision for it.
Superstar Rajinikanth sent a passionate email expressing his feelings after seeing the movie as well. “I recently watched Mari Selvaraj’s Vaazhai. After a long time, a brilliant and quality film has come out in Tamil cinema. Mari Selvaraj took us to his childhood days through this film. My heart ached when I saw him searching for food in the climax and the scene where his mother wails, thinking that she didn’t let her son eat rice.”
Praising the director’s brilliant work in the film, he penned, “Mari Selvaraj has proved that he is a brilliant director with his creation. My heartfelt wishes and congratulations to him.”
The protagonist of Vaazhai is a schoolboy named Sivanaindhan. After his father passed away, he works on a banana plantation to provide for his family. He is a talented student who dreams of a better life, but he must deal with the hard reality of poverty. The movie takes a number of turns as the plot develops.
It’s thought that a portion of the movie is based on the life of filmmaker Mari Selvaraj. In the meantime, actors Nikhila Vimal, Ponvel M., Raghul R., and others appear in Vaazhai.
