A genetic engineering student tries to bring back the skills of a legend of the past and use his skills to save India from a deadly virus attack by China.
There's no way we're missing the live recreation of two Norman Lear classics, the dark wit of Phoebe Waller-Bridge, and the terror of "The Hot Zone."

I hope you would agree with me that all Indians tend to compare the following kind of Indian movies (any language) with Hollywood movies
IMO Indian movies usually fall short in some department or the other. Especially latest bollywood movies. The problems I usually see with such movies are
Murugadoss's - 7 aum arivu seems to prove that a quality movie can be given by Indian directors by absorbing the story telling capabilities of Hollywood directors. You may be able to guess what is going to happen in most scenes and his story telling techniques could resemble scenes from different Hollywood movies. But what I see is the justification that the scenes are really necessary for this movie and that it is taken precisely. Also he doesn't deal with explaining every scene thru dialogues which most directors do. Some are left for audience to imagine which makes the movie really crisp. I see a quality movie that is taken in Hollywood style with chennai in the backdrop. There are only a handful of Indian directors (like Ashutosh Gowarikar) who could handle these tough subjects. IMO Murugadoss is one among them.
Definitely a must see movie.
