The Ayudha Pooja Battle - 10 Enradhukulla vs. Naanum Rowdy Dhaan

After a period of lull at the box office, Vikram's 10 Enradhukulla and Vijay Sethupathi's Naanum Rowdy Dhaan will be hitting the screens tomorrow. Let's quickly compare the two films and see what they have to offer to the fans.

Hero

• After his breathtaking performance in I, Vikram tries to play to the gallery with 10 Enradhukulla. The fans are eagerly waiting to see Vikram in a full-fledged entertaining role.
• After a string of flops, Vijay Sethupathi hopes to turn the fortunes around with Naanum Rowdy Dhaan. The wannabe don role looks tailor-made for him and his dialogues are going to be a scream.

Director

• After directing one of the most critically acclaimed films - Goli Soda last year, Vijay Million is back with a racy thriller in 10 Enradhukulla. It would be interesting to see how he adapts to this genre. If it strikes the chord with the audience, the movie could start a franchise similar to 'The Fast and The Furious' in Tamil.
• Vignesh Shivan's debut film Poda Podi was a mixed bag, but the movie did impress younger section of the audience. Similarly, the director banks on the same target audience for this film as well. Going by the trailer, it looks like he has understood the pulse of the youngsters.

Heroine

• Samantha has been switching between Tamil and Telugu, and 10 Enradhukulla is a crucial film for her to make a firm mark among Tamil audience as she has some biggies lined up next.
• After back-to-back hits with Thani Oruvan and Maya, Nayanthara is expected to score a hat-trick with Naanum Rowdy Dhaan. She plays the challenging role of a hearing-impaired girl, which has further increased the expectations.

Music

• Imman has failed to create any sort of magic with his 10 Enradhukulla songs, and the fans are hoping that the visuals might make them look better.
• On the other hand, Anirudh has literally rocked as he has come up with runaway chartbusters. The music buffs claim that Naaum Rowdy Dhaan is one of his best albums.

Opening

Surprisingly, Naanum Rowdy Dhaan has almost managed to match the show count of 10 Enradhukulla across popular multiplexes in Chennai. As the movies are releasing on Wednesday, the initial reviews and word of mouth will drive the people to theatres during the weekend.

Final Words

Both 10 Enradhukulla and Naanum Rowdy Dhaan look promising in their own rights, and they are expected to satisfy their target audiences. We will be back with the FDFS reviews of both the films.
