Sasikumar's Kodi Veeran
Sasikumar in Kodi Veeran.PR Handout

Muthiah, who had earlier worked with Sasikumar in Kutty Puli, has teamed up with the actor again for Kodi Veeran. The film has Mahima Nambiar of Kuttram 23 fame as the female lead with Sanusha and Poorna (Shamna Kasim) playing the key roles. Pasupathy plays a character with negative shades while Vidharth, Bala Saravanan and others are in the supporting cast.

NR Raghunanthan has composed the music and Ayyo Adi Aathe and Kalavani tracks have struck a chord with the viewers. The film has SR Kathir's cinematography and Venkat Rajen's editing.

Both the director and the actor are known to make movies against a rural backdrop. Also, relationships in their films are well-defined.

In Kodi Veeran, the director is set to explore the brother-sister relationship. Going by the trailer, it will be about two different pairs of siblings.

The two brothers trying to safeguard the pride of their respective sisters forms the crux of the story.

Pre Release
Kodi Veeran has managed to generate a decent buzz. The trailer and a few songs have managed to attract the viewers' attention.

The movie was supposed to be out on November 30, but it was delayed after the film's co-producer Ashok Kumar committed suicide.

Reviews
With the two other films like Nivin Pauly's Richie and Sibiraj's Sathya releasing this week, Kodi Veeran has to open to positive reviews to do good business at the box office. Will the movie impress the audience? Find it here in the audience's words:

Ramesh Bala: #KodiVeeran: A good rural drama action entertainer.. Based on Brother - Sister sentiment.. Set in Dir #Muthaih 's Forte.. Southern TN/Specific Community backdrop.. @SasikumarDir , #Pasupathi and #Sanuja r good.. If u r fan of this genre, u will like it..
#KodiVeeran: #Thalareference #Veeram Intro and Caste dialogue tender scene with theme BGM..
#KodiVeeran 1st Half: Brother - Sister sentiment.. Set in Southern TN.. Small town family and rivalry backdrop.. Going good so far..

Kaushik LM: #Kodiveeran 1st half - Trademark rural mass masala which has its moments. Mass interval block!

- Sanusha doing well as the sister (Thirupachi like)
- @SasikumarDir in home territory
- Pasupathy, Poorna, @Bala_actor impressing among the support actors

T MiSfIt‏: #Kodiveeran
1st half Romba Predictable a pannama konjam appadi ippadi kaati paneerkaru Director.
1st half is ok
Sasikumar should do better in mass scenes..his energy is

Karthi‏: #Kodiveeran - director muthiah's usual rural movie based on family relationship which is boring and dragging.Yet another disappointing film for sasikumar.

Sujith‏: #Kodiveeran Yet another rural commercial entertainer from #Muthiah in lines of #KuttiPuli and #Komban. Defenitely worth a watch. Special mention to the BGM and RR. Good.
Done with #Kodiveeran first half. Started with fun, love, establishments and some action. Interval block weightu. Good so far.

Prashanth Rangaswamy‏: #Kodiveeran - Agmark Muthiah product that will cater target audience ( rural and semi rural ) perfectly. Sentiments are the highlight. Review in a bit.

Sidhu‏: #Kodiveeran: Usual family entertainer that's cliche ridden and sentimental, but will still work with the masses. Typical B, C center film.
#Kodiveeran Interval: A formulaic mass entertainer cooking up. Muthaih's strength - the family emotions work fine.

Venkatramanan‏: #Kodiveeran -
Decent film from dir. #Muththaiya handling brother sister emotions in a rural backdrop. Might go well in C centres alone. Read the full review in @CineTimee in a bit.

Manobala Vijayabalan: #Kodiveeran 1st half: Starts with an emotional flashback and picks up pace towards interval.
Purely concentrates on brother sister sentiment. Shot in rural backdrop & college.
#Sasikumar - #Pasupathy scenes came out well.
Bala comedy clicked in parts.
#Kodiveeran 3/5: Yet another rural entertainer from @SasikumarDir. High on Brother-Sister bonding & Religious sentiments. Powerful dialogues with quality screenplay. Climax fight sequence was impressive. Top class acting from #Pasupathy. Little predictable story by @dir_muthaiya.

Karthi‏: #Kodiveeran - director muthiah's usual rural movie based on family relationship which is boring and dragging.Yet another disappointing film for sasikumar.

Dream world‏: #KodiVeeran #firsthalf Little bit lengthy (1 hour 30min ) but still a decent first half with a powerful interval block
