Jai Bhim

“TJ Gnanavel's 'Jai Bhim' is yet another drama that assumes good intentions plus a tragic real-life story is automatically good cinema”

“Lijo Mol Jose's heart-shattering performance goes without saying. Suriya is making some impeccable film choices and deserves all the credit. There should be nothing that will stop you from watching this drama that breaks the stereotype of framing the hero as messiah yet again.”

“Suriya inhabits the role of a firebrand advocate with ease. It is as if he's not just performing the lines written by the director, but believes in every word and gesture he delivers in this film.”

“Jai Bhim is raw, real and brutal”

“Jai Bhim is perhaps one of the boldest films to come out of Tamil cinema. The politics here is not watered down; it is direct and takes an incisive look. It doesn't punch down, but up.”

“Jai Bhim is partially preachy. But because of the honesty, it shows in approaching the central theme that preachy feel never becomes a deal-breaker. With a constantly engaging screenplay and some great performances from its cast, TJ Gnanavel’s Jai Bhim is a pertinent legal drama.”
