Saripodhaa Sanivaaram review

The Hindustan Times review of the film read, "On paper, Saripodhaa Sanivaaram reads like your cookie-cutter commercial cinema, in which the emotional portions rely on the amma (mother) and akka (elder sister) sentiment, or the hero becomes the saviour of the masses. But Vivek smartly depends not just on his cast’s performances, but also on his strong technical team and mostly good writing to set his film apart. He also turns the vigilante trope on its head. Much like Surya, the film struggles to find its purpose for a while. But eventually, it does."

Nani recently spoke about his role in film

Recently, Nani shared that playing the role of Surya in the film wasn't as challenging as one might expect, despite the complex storyline. Speaking with news agency ANI, he had said, “It was actually not very challenging because I feel the challenging roles for me are the ones which I on a personal level can't relate to, and I need to work on every small detail of it.”

"Somehow Surya felt like me, so it was actually a lot more easy to pull it off. It was challenging for director Vivek to build a story like this and execute it with that kind of ethernet height. But I think I had fun working for it," he had added.
