While Ilayathalapathy Vijay's grand fantasy adventure 'Puli' has completed its first weekend at the box office there have been mixed reviews about the film. But many of the reviews appreciate the technical aspects of the film, fantasy element and the readiness of a mass hero like Vijay to do a different genre of a film like this.

Actor Jiiva who maintains a good friendship with Vijay since 'Nanban' days has watched the film and has been pouring his praises over the film.

"Pulii is a beautiful film targetted at Children. It is a fantasy film with so many graphics sequences which will be liked by all kinds of audiences. The film takes us to a different world from reality. Vijay has acted in a film that is not just for his fans but a commercial film that would appeal to children and family audience.

Acting in a film for children has been a long time dream of mine. The film has unusual characters, Vijay appears in a different getup and the film has good share of dance and fight sequences. Overall it is a enjoyable film".
