"Saripodhaa Sanivaaram," starring Natural Star Nani and directed by Vivek Athreya, is generating buzz as their second collaboration after the successful "Ante Sundaraniki." However, the film's runtime of 2 hours and 50 minutes has raised eyebrows, especially considering the previous film's lengthy duration.
"Ante Sundaraniki," a romantic drama, clocked in at 2 hours and 56 minutes, drawing criticism for its excessive length. Several viewers and reviews felt the runtime could have been trimmed. Now, with "Saripodhaa Sanivaaram" exceeding that mark, comparisons are inevitable.
Despite the concerns, the team remains confident that the audience will be engrossed throughout the film. This time, Vivek ventures into the action genre, delivering an intense action drama with a love story at its core. The film also features Priyanka Arul Mohan and SJ Suryah in pivotal roles.
While "Saripodhaa Sanivaaram" promises an engaging experience, the lengthy runtime may pose a challenge for the team. Whether the action-packed narrative and stellar cast can keep audiences hooked for nearly three hours remains to be seen when the film hits theaters on the 29th of this month.
