Prabhu Deva and AL Vijay have collaborated once again for Lakshmi after hit movie Devi. The former plays the lead with 12-year old Ditya Bhande, who won the reality show Super Dancers. She will be playing an important role in the flick alongside Aishwarya Rajesh. Karunakaran, Kovai Sarala and others actors are part of the supporting cast.
Sam CS has composed seven songs for the album -- Morakka Matrakka, Aala Aala and Nilladhey Nilladhey -- and has stuck the chords of the listeners. Nirav Shah and Anthony are the other two important members in the technical team who have handled cinematography and editing departments, respectively.
Lakshmi is a dance movie and the story is about an aspiring girl, who wants to take part in Pride of India Jr dance competition. However, her mother is against her wish. What happens next is the most interesting part of the story.
In short, the film is all about the emotional bond between a guru and his student. Lakshmi tries to explore various dimensions of emotions in relationships like mother-daughter and student-teacher.

Reviews:
Here we bring you the live audience review of Lakshmi as and when the responses are out online.
Rajasekar: #Lakshmi - The film belongs to the little rock star #Ditya, she not only looks cute but also attracts us with her amazing dance moves. The emotional climax featuring Ditya and @pddancing is the film's major highlight.
Chriospher Kanagaraj: #Lakshmi - Pure Dance film. Ditya's terrific dance sequences, Prabudeva's pre interval dance r d highlights. AL Vijay's screenplay is highly predictable & cliched. 1st half has it moments, but 2nd half is little disappointment. Gud bgm & camera wrk. 1 tym watch for dance lovers!
Kaushik LM: #Lakshmi 1st half - Some spectacular dancing from the kids led by #Ditya; Morraka is a charming song from @samcsmusic.. There is a superb @PDdancing dance segment too. It looks like a typical tale of an underdog triumphing against odds..
#Lakshmi 2nd half - Has some riveting dance stretches with the kids, and a really melodramatic final sequence with #Ditya - @PDdancing..
The kids are true Champs and the saving grace of the film.. Watch it for them! Family audiences and kids will like the film..

Review Ram: #Lakshmi (Tamil) - Interval - Predictable stuff, staging is quite dull and screenplay wise the movie is in the watchable range. But dance champ 'Ditya' and scenes with respect to dance are awesome. 'Watchable' so far. @PDdancing @aishu_dil #LakshmiFromToday @SamCSmusic
#Lakshmi (Tamil) - Strictly for dance movie lovers. @PDdancing @aishu_dil @SamCSmusic #LakshmiFromToday
S Abishek: @PDdancing was the facelift provider for dancing in cinema and now #Lakshmi will pass on the tradition Known for making clean films, #AlVijay has once again made a story for group watching!

#PrabhuDeva stunning as ever ❤️
Predictable but neatly packed.

My thoughts on #Lakshmi. #LakshmiReview
Aravind Shyam Sundar: #Lakshmi - Halfway Through
After Half An Hour Only, The Film Slowly Creates Our Interest Towards The Dance....Ditya is Rocking The Show With Her Superb Movements...The Festival of Dance to Begin in The Second Half
Ramesh Bala: #EcharikkaiFromToday is a Thriller with good twists and turns..
Good Actors #Sathyaraj , #Kishore and @varusarath and their performance make it worth a watch..
#Lakshmi : A movie for dancers and kids who have an inclination for dance..
Child dancer #Ditya is great.. Her dance moves r a delight to watch..
Expected more from @PDdancing's character..
@aishu_dil is good..
@SamCSmusic songs suit the movie..
Watch it for #Ditya
Sidhu: #Lakshmi: Run-of-the-mill. Some terrific dance stretches light up this cliched ride that will appeal to the kids and Vijay TV fans. Ditya rocks though!
