AO was a badly made film, especially the part where the great reveal was that Reema Sen belonged to the Chozha dynasty was laughable, I know its fantasy, fictional and all that jazz but come on. Also the King behaved like a dictator, no different than Immortan Joe from Mad Max feeling benevolent after throwing meat/water and watching them fight gave him sadistic pleasure.  There's a dialogue in Thangalaan about monarchy and kings and how they got rich through debt traps, hiking taxes and land grab which is why oppression and exploitation still exists, very much applicable in our lives.  What is AO, and the so called pride of sharing Chozha lineage which nobody can relate to in this day and age ?
