Hindustan Times · Haricharan Pudipeddi

Velaikkaran is a morality-ridden, hard-hitting (up till a point) tale centred on the lives of blue-collared workers and their employers.

Without being overly dramatic, the movie realistically drives home the message that common folks should defend themselves in this man-eat-man world.

How is the fan score worked out?

It is a Fair Score, not a plain average. Votes from brand new accounts, accounts that have rated only one film, several votes from one network, sudden bursts, and accounts that only ever give one star's films 1 or 5 stars count for less. A few early ratings cannot swing it. Nothing is hidden: we show the star bars above.
