Kumaran (Hiphop Tamizha Aadhi) is a Veeranur resident who is struck by a thunderbolt and is transferred to Singapore for additional medical attention. Years later, he returns to Veeranur and discovers that a large corporation is constructing cables across his town and other areas to generate power using lasers. The experiment is risky and Sharath (Vinay Rai) is running the corporation, but he hides the dangers from the people to further his own interests.
Kumaran gains the capacity to influence the thoughts of those around him and discharge electric arcs. He poses as Veeran, the village’s long-forgotten guardian deity, to raise awareness of the project’s risks. Does Kumaran succeed in preventing the business from carrying out the risky project? How does Veeran fit into the plans of the Sharath-led corporation? All of these questions are answered in the movie.
Adhi, whose previous roles have primarily attracted youthful viewers, excels in a movie that appeals to all audience segments. He gives a very convincing performance as a youngster trying to control his brand-new superpowers.
Sassi and Athira both put out respectable performances. However, the connection between Munishkanth and Kaali Venkat is what really makes the film stand out. The pair steals the show as they deftly take over the comedic portion of the film.
Vinay Rai certainly does a fantastic job portraying the evil scientist, however occasionally it seems as though his bad part was underdeveloped and had little impact on the entire plot.
Veeran by ARK Saravanan has a powerful opening that draws us into a superhero fantasy universe. The storyline is straightforward and uses the typical superhero structure. Therefore, ARK Saravan’s initial action is to pretend to be narrating a new story without spending much time doing so. The story here is more basic with generic antagonists, in contrast to Minnal Murali, which was more acquainted with the antagonist.
Without the superhero component, the film feels like a typical mass masala Tamil production. Any other action hero would make the superhero genre seem out of place if they were cast in the primary role. Despite dealing with a fictional subject, the film’s production values enable one to readily accept what is depicted on screen. Nothing about the superhero’s abilities or abilities comes off as odd or inappropriate on television. That alone is a significant accomplishment because it aids the character in finding acceptance.
After a certain point, ARK Saravan appears rushed. On a narrative level, things like Kumaran’s final combat escape, the antagonist’s demise, etc. feel quite shoddy. There are many comedic scenes that are too prolonged in the second part of the film. Some of the situations don’t make sense, even given the fantastical setting, as the hero’s strength makes an obvious solution to the problem obvious. The stunt choreographers appear to have done an excellent job, and the film features some breathtaking battle scenes.
