Mankatha Magic Begins Again: ‘Thala’ Fans Celebrate in Theatres!

Directed by Venkat Prabhu, Mankatha was released in 2011 as Thala Ajith Kumar’s 50th film and became a massive blockbuster hit. Even after 13 years, the craze for the film remains undiminished as it was re-released across Tamil Nadu today.

Iconic Performance: Ajith’s portrayal of ‘Vinayak Mahadev,’ a character with heavy negative shades, captivated the audience. His “salt and pepper” look became a major trendsetter.

The Face-off: The intense confrontation scenes between Action King Arjun and Ajith served as a massive strength for the film.

Musical Impact: Yuvan Shankar Raja’s background score (BGM) remains a favorite ringtone for many even today. In particular, the Mankatha theme music is known to make theatres vibrate with energy.

The Screenplay: Labeled as “A Venkat Prabhu Game,” the film won over fans with its fast-paced screenplay and thrilling plot twists.

While updates regarding Ajith’s upcoming films AK64 and AK65 are already rolling out, the re-release of Mankatha has brought double the joy to fans. Since this morning, fans have been celebrating the return of Mankatha at cinemas by performing Paal Abhishekham (milk offerings) and bursting crackers.

Fans are flocking to the theatres, eager to witness once more on the big screen that “It’s a Vinayak Mahadev Game.”
