Sulthan 2021 Movie Review
The story revolves around Sulthan (Karthi), a reformed gangster who steps up to bring peace and unity among a group of violent henchmen left behind by his father, a former gang leader. The film explores themes of redemption, loyalty, and the power of leadership, as Sulthan navigates the challenges of transforming a group of unruly individuals into a disciplined team. The narrative also weaves in elements of romance and family drama, adding depth to the action-packed storyline.
Bakkiyaraj Kannan’s direction is sharp and engaging, with a clear focus on character development and storytelling. The screenplay, co-written by Kannan, Hariharasuthan, and Thangavelu, strikes a balance between intense action sequences and emotional moments. While the film follows a familiar template of redemption arcs, it manages to keep the audience invested through its well-paced narrative and strong character dynamics.
Karthi delivers a standout performance as Sulthan, effortlessly transitioning between the ruggedness of a gangster and the compassion of a leader. His screen presence and emotional depth anchor the film. The supporting cast, including Rashmika Mandanna as the female lead, adds charm and energy to the story. The chemistry between the actors, especially the camaraderie among the gang members, is a highlight of the film.
