Vikram in Thangalaan
Chiyaan Vikram and filmmaker Pa Ranjith`s much-awaited film `Thangalaan` has hit the big screens today on the occasion of Independence day. `Thangalaan` is a historical film that narrates the real story of Kolar Gold Fields (KGF) when KGF was discovered by the British who exploited and looted it for their own purpose. The film is going to take ahead the spree of the South industry of bringing unique concepts to the audience. It’s yet another film from the South with an unusual concept.
Pa. Ranjith has categorized `Thangalaan` as a historical film distinct from Prashanth Neel’s ‘KGF’, which stars Yash. "While KGF focused on Rocky Bhai, Thangalaan is about a community from a century ago. During the Mysore state period, diverse people inhabited the KGF area. The film also examines the aftermath of discovering gold, along with colonialism and societal inequalities that affected the community," Ranjith elaborated.
