In addition to combining these two elements that Tamil cinema has long exploited, Vijay's most recent box office success, Varisu, also adds a third element: brotherly affection.
Varisu is like a popcorn tub that has been through several rounds of flavoured spices because it has so much information on a family that has a variety of issues among its members. It's no longer interesting to eat bland movie popcorn, and the same seems to apply to what happens on screen. In his most recent films, Bigil was a sports drama and Beast was about individuals trapped in a mall.
However, with Varisu, Vijay returns to a formula that has previously produced successful results for him: the family.A family's narrative is told in Varisu. Rajendran (Sarathkumar), its controlling and competitive father who also owns a commercial empire, is at the helm. His wife, Sudha (Jayasudha), is a patient mother and guardian of the calm in the home. She wears stunning saris, makes everyone's food, bemoans the greatness of a family, and frets incessantly.Their older son, Jay (Meka Srikanth), is a sour loser, a philanderer, and an unskilled businessman. His wife, Sangeetha, is a patient recluse with a permanent long face.
They have a rebellious 16-year-old daughter who smokes in the garden and leaves butts behind that seemingly no one notices or even smells. Perhaps living in a house that big has its drawbacks.
Ajay (Shaam), the middle son, is a clueless businessman who frequently falls prey to nefarious corporate powers. As for his wife Samyuktha, you already know the drill. Forget the Bechdel test; she is such a vital member of the cast of this movie that not a single significant dialogue is ever spoken by her.
The prodigal son, Vijay (played by Vijay), has just to return and bring this disorganised family back together, which is exactly what he does. No reveals there, right?Vamshi Paidipally's Varisu has the advantage of not making any attempt to be original, different, or imaginative.
It is the ten-for-ten model movie that Tamil cinema has been churning out for years.The film's lead provides brief bursts of enthusiasm, but ultimately it lacks the spark needed to elevate this traditional "masala" movie that doesn't forget to stick with over-the-top action sequences and pointless songs. The score by Thaman is uncomfortably loud, and his songs sound identical to Anirudh's "Arabic kuthu" from "Beast." There are many antiquated writing choices in "Varisu." Yogi Babu, who has defied stereotypes of comedians, is back playing a little role and attempting to make people laugh with slapstick humour. Rashmika Mandanna is perceived more as a dancer than as an actor playing a minor role. Vijay and Jayasudha's emotional exchanges seem extremely forced.
