Suriya’s much-awaited pan-India film Kanguva has finally hit the theatres and opened to mixed response from the audience. However, Suriya and Bobby Deol’s performances have become the talk of the town. Despite strong performances, cool VFX, and grand visuals, Kanguva is no match for SS Rajamouli’s Prabhas-starrer Baahubali.
Except for the song ‘YOLO’, Kanguva boasts of goosebumps-worthy background scores and songs that elevate the film experience. Suriya shines in a double role and his tribal look and performance is the highlight of the whole film. Made on a high scale, the film’s VFX and grand visuals do justice to the budget, however, the film does feel stretched at some moments.

The villain in the film, Bobby Deol, who made his Tamil debut with it, gives powerful, fierce vibes, however, is reduced to just a prop in front of the hero and thus just like in Animal, Bobby Deol’s strong persona, impactful acting is wasted yet again. Suriya’s performance is so fierce that it will make you feel that he is playing the double role of a villain as well as that of a hero.
On the other hand, Baahubali had an equally strong villain (Rana Daggubati) as the hero (Prabhas). Not only this but despite being a multi-starrer, SS Rajamouli gave a proper arc to e.
