K13 Movie Review
Arulnithi's K13.PR Handout

Arulnithi has teamed up with Shraddha Srinath of Vikram Vedha fame in his latest movie K13, which has hit the screens on Friday, 3 May. Barath Neelakantan has directed the film apart from writing dialogues and screenplay for the film produced by ST Shankar and Santha Priya.

The movie also has Gayathrie and director Adhik Ravichandran playing pivotal roles. Yogi Babu, Madhumitha, Rishikanth and others are part of the supporting cast. K13 has Sam CS's music, GK Vishnu's cinematography and Ruben's editing.

Story:
K13 is a psychological drama that revolves around an assistant director (Arulnithi) and an author (Shraddha Srinath). It has non-linear screenplay with lots of twists and turns. How the duo land into trouble due to a twisted tale forms the crux of the story.

Madhiazhagan spends a night with a mysterious woman Malarvizhi (Shraddha Srinath) after getting drunk. But to his horror the next morning, he finds her dead body and he is tied to a chair. Once untying himself, he searches her room to know her past. Soon he realises the need for erasing all the proofs which might put him in trouble. What follows next should be seen on-screen.

Audience Response:
K10 is a decent thriller with lots of interesting twists in the story. Despite the lags and slow-pace narration, it turns out to be an enjoyable flick. The smart writing and detailing for the characters are the highlights of the Tamil film, which has solid performance from the lead actors. Check out what the audience say about the film:

Haricharan Pudipeddi: #K13 is a smart, extremely well executed meta thriller that takes time to warm up but the pay-off is worth sitting through. An assured debut by @dir_barath who knows how to pull a few surprises. @arulnithitamil and @ShraddhaSrinath play their respective parts fittingly.

Sathish Kumar M: #K13 @arulnithitamil & @ShraddhaSrinath impresses with their acting skills in this mystery thriller with good prd-interval scenes and quite engaging second half with unexpected twist in the climax. @dir_barath

Simon d Souza: Admiring, Simple & Sensible

S Abishek: Very few films will have something to offer till the last frame.
#k13 comes in that category.
Beyond entertainment value, this film will be an inspiration for mystery thriller aficionados
Clean performances from @arulnithitamil and @ShraddhaSrinath
Half way into #k13 - what's with the story is still a challenge to crack. The director packages the first half with very little scope for us to guess anything about the climax.
@arulnithitamil looks comfortable with the role
@SamCSmusic does the trick.

Richard Mahesh R: #K13 first half (55mins) From the word GO, it keeps us engaged. Less dialogues and more thrill created through actions.
@sankarsp007 @arulnithitamil performance and @SamCSmusic BGM stands out @ShraddhaSrinath @dir_barath @kisham77 @narentnb @AntonyLRuben @AravinndSingh

Review Ram: #K13 (Tamil) - Interval - Becomes interesting close to the break-point. No big progress after the plot is established in the first scene. The flashbacks are weak and boring. BGM is unimpressive. For the 100 mins runtime, the engagement is very low till now.
'Sumaar' so far.
A watchable thriller with good thinking. Thumbs-up for the idea and premise, but the execution fails to pack a punch. Could have been better and there are a lot of silly fillers in the first hour.
