"Tharangam" has a different treatment and a different style.Tovino has once again proved his flexibility as an actor.Good performances from every actors.A few names were in the big screen which brought me personal happiness...With less expectation Tharangam is a good entertainer that would keep you glued to the screen :)

#Tharangam - Impressive way of narration with suspense & fun. @ttovino's yet another entertainer that never disappoints you.

Tharangam does make waves all around, & almost all of it stays #divergent. With its radical #variety in #treatment, it has the #potential of creating a #different #effect on each #individual. There is enough #humour added right in between to keep things floating above. Along with #Tovino, the two leading actresses, Santhy Balachandran & Neha Iyer makes #splendid#debut in this work which had scope to go even further with its story as much as its comedy with an implausible #fantasy side. Well, most of us are welcome to some interesting #experiments in movies, aren't we? Then, we can see what #Tharangam brings too, & contemplate over the same.

Tharangam - An avg crime comedy. Second half falls flat. Can be Try it for some funny moments.. 2.5/ 5*
Neethish
All my expectations about this movie went down right from the begining.i dont know why Dhanush had spend money for a movie like this..script was lagging and nothing was entertaining except few bits of comedys here and there.Tovinos acting was terrible and comedy attempts made by him seemed to be artificial..Better stay away from this movie and save your money and time..
Aileena
if you like crime comedy then this is the movie to watch. every character is interesting. the little elements of fantasy makes it even more charming to watch. enjoy with your families.
David

#Tharangam interval. Has been decent so far. Tharangam is a decent enough watch overall without being very impressive. Enough laughs to sustain till end if audience is kind 2.5/5What it surprisingly lacks is style considering that director's short film was full of it. Need those editing flourishes...
