Thalaivaa (2013)
Audiences are lukewarm on it.
The FilmyChill Score combines audience ratings and critics' reception, and updates twice a day. No studio or platform can pay for a score. How the score works
Thalaivaa is streaming in India on Prime Video, Sun Nxt, Vi Movies & TV.
What the audience says
Thalaivaa is a middling Tamil film — fine for a one-time watch but unlikely to stay with you. It carries a 5.5/10 on TMDB across 56 ratings — under the line most people draw.
Should you spend 3h 2m on it?
3h 2m of Tamil action with a drama streak, fine for the whole family. At this length it's the whole evening's plan, not something to slot in after dinner.
Don't watch this if…
- you want a number you can lean on. 56 ratings isn't much to go on
- you're short on time. At 3h 2m it wants the whole night
- you're after something harder. It's rated U
- Why
- At 5.5/10 from 56 ratings, audiences are split; the genre fit matters more than the score here.
- Skip if
- you want something you can finish before a reasonable bedtime
- Best for
- An evening with the household together
Story
A mafia don sends his son out of the country because he doesn't want even a shadow of his life falling on him. Destiny wills otherwise. The son makes an innocuous trip to Mumbai to visit his dad. And ends up filling his father's large shoes.
