Meiyazhagan starring Karthi and Arvind Swami in the lead is a emotional buddy comedy movie that is all set to release in theaters on September 27, 2024. Written and directed by C Prem Kumar of 96 movie fame, Meiyazhagan follows the story of Arunmozhi Varman (Arvind Swami), who visits his hometown for a cousin's wedding after being forced to leave the place 22 years ago.

Karthi whom Arvind Swami doesn't recall gets super affectionate even sharing childhood memories, but Arvind Swami does not have a clue about who this 'Meiyazhagan' is. What happens next forms the rest of the movie. Also starring Rajkiran as Arvind Swami's uncle Sudalamuthu, Swathi Konde as Arvind Swami's cousin Bhuvana, Devadarshini as Arvind Swami's wife Hema, and Sri Divya as Karthi's wife Nandini, Meiyazhagan had a special screening on September 25, 2024.

Meiyazhagan reviews from this screening: 

There are ample nostalgic moments that instantly connect in Meiyazhagan. Feel-good moments galore, the emotions work very neatly yet it is the slice of life element that grabs the spotlight.#MeiyazhaganReview #Meiyazhagan https://t.co/f4C7OEmw6j

#Meiyazhagan has so many heartwarming moments. @thearvindswami is such a delight to watch and one only wishes he does films more often. @Karthi_Offl is that distant relative all of us have who is genuinely so warm to you but you feel guilty, because you can't put a name to his… pic.twitter.com/RbMTx7QvXz

#Meiyazhagan has one of the sweetest character writings in recent times, that is soul-stirring. Definitely @thearvindswami 's career-best performance. Karthi on the other hand is lively & his humour is super enjoyable. Together, they deliver a joyous bromance.#MeiyazhaganReview pic.twitter.com/HrwAL8e36y
