Best movie ever seen!!!, 27 July 2006
10/10
Author: nikhilasangam from United States

Rudraveena is the best movie I have seen till date. Excellent performances, perfect music direction and not the least great direction. I have seen it over 20 times and don't mind watching it again. The movie has a social message which is sent across the masses in a subtle manner. It is a very thought provoking movie and makes everyone ponder on "Dont ask what country has done to u but ask yourself what u have done to the country". The social issues of the 80's were perfectly captured and portrayed by the characters. Illayaraja's music is simply great and supplements the movie perfectly. Chiranjeevi's performance is worth mentioning. After watching this movie I have become a big fan of this MEGA STAR. Shobana's dancing was superb and she did a great job. Gemeni Ganesan as a strict brahmin and proud musician following all the age old rules is a star. His performance was splendid . As I end I would like to mention that the movie is a definite must see for one and all.
