Thamizhan is a 2002 Indian Tamil language law thriller film directed by debutant Majith and produced by G. Venkateswaran. The film stars Vijay in the lead role with Priyanka Chopra, who made her debut as a lead actress in the film.[1] Revathi, Nassar, Ashish Vidyarthi and Vivek also play pivotal roles in the film, while the film's score and soundtrack were composed by D. Imman.[2] The story involves solving several corruption cases by a lawyer named Surya in the process fighting against a criminal boss and finally making indian law basics available as a free book to common people.

Plot

Surya (Vijay) is a lawyer with right values who tries to redress things the legal way. He falls in love with Priya (Priyanka Chopra). His brother-in-law Shakthivel (Nassar), also an upright lawyer, is killed in the process of upholding justice.

Production

In 2001, producer G. Venkateswaran signed on Thirupathisamy to direct Vijay in an action film titled Velan. The film, a remake of the director's Telugu film Azad, saw Priyanka Chopra, winner of the beauty pageant Miss World 2000, being brought in by Venkateswaren to make her debut and play the lead female role.[1] However, before production began, Thirupathisamy died in an accident and Venkateswaren duly decided to give debutant Majith a chance to direct a film with the same cast.[3]

Gouthami Tadimalla was initially selected to play Vijay's sister in the film, but was later replaced by Revathi.[4] Vivek was signed on to film comedy scenes for a sum of {{INR}}15 lakh.[5] A new technical team of music director 18-year-old Imman, who had scored for serials earlier, and cinematographer Ekambaram, who had apprenticed with Jeeva, were also selected. Furthermore, the sets were designed by Sabu Cyril, dance choreography was by Raju Sundaram, and stunts were arranged by Super Subbarayan.[6][7]

A scene for the film featured the producer and lyricist Vairamuthu making guest appearances as themselves during a book launch event.[8] The patriotic nature of the film led to a postal stamp being released with Vijay's face on it.[9] The similarities of title and the same release date between Thamizhan and the Prashanth-starrer Thamizh created confusion, with the producers of both films unable to accommodate any changes.[10]

Release

Made on a high budget of {{INR}}5 crore, Thamizhan was sold for {{INR}}11.5 crore[11] to distributors.

The movie was later dubbed in Telugu as Dammunte Kasko and in Hindi as Jeet - Born To Win (2009).[12][13]

Critical reception

The film opened to mixed reviews from film critics on 14 April 2002.[14] Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu praised Vijay's image change and claimed he acts out a "creditable portrayal", while adding that "dialogue is a strong point of the film". Though she also mentioned that "debutante Priyanka Chopra has precious little to do" and that Revathi's role was of a cliched elder sister. In comparison, a reviewer from Bizhat.com stated that "the message conveyed leaves you exhausted and stressed", giving the film an average review.[15][16][17]
