2021 Indian action crime film
Jail is a 2021 Indian Tamil-language crime film written and directed by Vasanthabalan. The film is produced by Sridharan Mariathasan under the production banner of Krikes Cine Creations. The film stars G. V. Prakash Kumar, with debutante Abarnathi and Radhika Sarathkumar. Prakash Kumar also composed music for the film which was edited by Raymond Derrick Crasta. The film was released on 9 December 2021.
Three childhood friends get thrown out of their village under the guise of resettlement. In addition to adjusting to the new reality, they must fight for their rights and strive hard to make a living.
In 2018, it was announced that G. V. Prakash would act under the direction of Vasanthabalan.[1] Prakash started his career as composer with Vasanthabalan’s film Veyil (2006). Abarnathi, who rose to fame with the reality series Enga Veetu Mapillai, made her cinematic debut as actress with this film.[2]
The soundtrack was composed by G. V. Prakash Kumar. Dhanush and Aditi Rao Hydari sang one song for the film.[3]
M. Suganth of The Times of India who gave 2.5 out of 5 stars after reviewing the film stated that “Rather than sending chills, the climax only evokes a cold indifference.”[4] Srivatsan S of The Hindu after reviewing the film stated that “In the opening credits, Vasanthabalan credits a few people for their conversations. What a wonderful gesture I thought. Perhaps there is a downside too; you shouldn’t always go by hearsay.”[5]
Sudhir Srinivasan of Cinema Express gave 2 out of 5 stars stating that “The real jail, when you are exposed to such attempts at humour in a film that’s supposed to celebrate equality and empathy, is the movie theatre.”[6] Ashameera Aiyappan of Firstpost who gave 2.5 out of 5 stated after reviewing the film that “In its writing, we see the frameworks of a strong emotional drama. But it never rises above that.”[7]
