In H Vinoth's "Thunivu," a film exposing corruption in private banks, Ajith Kumar's magnetiT centre stage, yet the picture falters in certain obvious problems.

From the movie "Thunivu," Ajith Kumar is depicted in a still.

Producing a movie for Ajith and Vijay must feel like balancing on a tightrope while wearing nothing but your shoes, don't you think? In Thunivu, his third collaboration with Ajith Kumar, H Vinoth manages to walk a fine line between letting Ajith do what he does best and telling a taut story about corruption in the manner that he is known for. It mostly succeeds.

A somewhat brilliant one-liner can be found in H Vinoth and Ajith Kumar's third movie. Broadly speaking, this plot line attempts to spoof the bank robbery film while simultaneously turning the protagonist's moral compass on its head. Early on, clever ideas are disseminated to introduce the idea that a bank primarily serves the interests of its customers. When we first enter this bank, we observe naive clients as well as a group of typical, daily tellers. The genius of this arrangement is in realising how it functions like a see-saw, with the bank's aims only becoming more obvious as we move up the chain of command and towards senior management. 

Straight up, Thunivu is a great movie.

Ajith Kumar steals the show in Thunivu; he makes a big entrance, shakes his leg frequently, sends goons flying, and moonwalks through this cakewalk of a movie that doesn't ask too much of him. He also performs a moonwalk in a scene. Ajith portrays Dark Devil, a lone mercenary who works for hire. Dark Devil, Kanmani, and their gang double-cross Radha (Veera) and his gang when they seize control of a private bank in Chennai. They then make a deal with them. The Police Commissioner (Samuthirakani) assumes control of the situation outside the bank. A bank robbery tale with many twists and turns, letdowns, loads of gunfire, heroic victories, and redemptions starts. Of course, this implies that, like in the majority of commercial star vehicles. Given that this movie again stars a frightening Ajith leading a bank heist with double crosses and the refrain "Money, Money, Money," it was simple for fans to draw comparisons to Ajith's 2011 blockbuster Mankatha. The fear is that Ajith's character may suddenly revert to being a noble guy, turning the movie into something like to a sermon. Ajith, however, is not a Robin Hood in Thunivu; rather, he is a motivated anti-hero with few, if any, redeeming characteristics. His morals is flawed; he kills innocent police officers and is only concerned with the bigger picture. Vinoth sets out to reveal how nearly everyone in this world is selfish in one way or another because most characters in Thunivu have greyish hues.
