Mirugaa (transl. Animal) is a 2021 Tamil-language action thriller film directed by Parthiban and produced by Vinod Jain. The film stars Srikanth and Raai Laxmi. Produced by Jaguar Studios, it was released on 5 March 2021.[1][2] The film received mixed reviews from critics who criticized the screenplay, VFX, predictability and execution.
John, a.k.a. Aravind, a serial killer who hunts rich, single mothers, kills their relatives who stay in her house and loots their money. In one such endeavour, Subadhra, a neighbour, witnesses his heinous crime and begins to blackmail him with a video recording. Subadhra coerces Aravind into infiltrating her sister Lakshmi's estate, to extort money, before killing Lakshmi and her family. However, upon realising how rich Lakshmi is, Aravind concocts a new plan. This makes up the intriguing plotline of the film and maneater tiger terrorizes.
Srikanth and Raai Laxmi began working on the film in December 2018, teaming up for a "graphics-heavy" film written by noted cinematographer M. V. Panneerselvam and directed by debutant J. Parthiban.[3] The film was shot throughout 2019 in cities including Pollachi, Munnar, Thalaikona, Ooty and Kodaikanal. The climax was shot in Mani Mahal in Chennai.[4][5] The makers promoted the film by revealing that a tiger would play a pivotal role.[6] A first look poster was released online in May 2019.[7]
The film was released across theatres in Tamil Nadu on 5 March 2021. A critic from Times of India wrote, "The attempt to hold the attention of viewers with a tiger in the film's pre-climax and climax portions is laudable, but the below par VFX couldn't do justice to it". A critic from Cinema Express noted the film has a "predictable screenplay, poor execution, budgetary limitations and unfeasible VFX technology, which hinder this serial killer film".[9][10]Dinamalar gave the film a mixed review, concluding that the film was a missed opportunity.[11]
