PV? Best film? IMO, Omkara was miles ahead of PV (though it wasn't as good as Maqbool). As if this wasn't enough, Priya Mani is to be given the best actress award . That jury sure has some sense of humour.

Haven't seen Omkara yet.

Muthazagu sometimes got on one's nerves because of some shades of KB style heroinism. But do you really think her performance was that bad ?

I saw it just once but I remember her expressions when the kid comes home to tell her Veeran has been released and she asks him if he knows about her suicide drama, the smile she breaks into when Veeran shows her his tattoo (he was terrible in just that one scene). Agree she did not nail the accent (like Karthi and Saravanan) but there several places where her expressions and diction were noteworthy. The way she says "indhEru" (a typical Madurai 'indho paaru') in the scene with Veeran near the kammAi is just the way it is spoken.

The smaller characters (from the kid to PoNanthinni to the Gusthi master's student) come out really well. The dialogues are among the best I have seen spoken in TFI in a long time. Film dialogues are not quotable quotes, they should feel exactly like the lines spoken by the character. On that count Paruthiveeran was great. Right from "veerapparambarai saar" to the very end the lines and way they are delivered are just perfect.

Hope this film garners more accolades.
