Kamal Haasan
continues to underperform at the box office as the early estimates suggest that the film couldn't even cross the Rs 1 crore mark on its second Saturday.

Apart from Kamal Haasan the film also stars Trisha Krishnan, T.R. Silambarasan, Abhirami, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Ashok Selvan, Joju George, Nassar, Ali Fazal, and Mahesh Manjrekar in key roles.
On Twitter, fans shared their honest reactions to the film. While netizens enjoyed the powerful and energetic performance by Kamal Haasan and Silambarasan TR, the fans also mentioned the screenplay lacked impact and fell below expectations.
The second half of the film was criticized for inconsistent writing and pacing issues and on the other hand, the film's technical aspects such as its cinematography, background score and de-aging effects, received praise.

People currently experience anxiety about writing: KSOU director
Mysuru: KSOU Akka Mahadevi Research and Extension Center director Kavita Rai on Sunday emphasised that while language speaking can be taught, writing instruction poses significant challenges. She noted that people currently experience anxiety about writing. She also expressed criticism towards actor Kamal Haasan's recent comments about the Kannada language. Speaking at an event, she said that as a result of modern technology, the process of translation from one language to another is happening on a large scale. The youth of the current era have become proficient in computer writing rather than handwriting. There is no need to be surprised if in the future they write with the help of artificial intelligence, she said. She highlighted the complexity of teaching writing in one language to speakers of another, considering social and cultural contexts. She noted that linguistic expression varies among individuals. She pointed out that languages did not develop sequentially but emerged simultaneously. Poet Jyothi Guruprasad highlighted the increasing instances of plagiarism. She noted that this practice has disrupted the connection between reading and critical thinking, with unauthorised sharing of content on social media becoming prevalent. She attributed this to inadequate educational methodologies. She advocated for educational institutions to adopt teaching approaches that make learning enjoyable, which would encourage students to develop independent writing skills. The event was attended by writers C Naganna and Kalpana Mukunda Iyengar.
