Thangalaan is a movie that tells the story of an oppressed section of society. Pa. Ranjit dared to call out the bigots of the so-called Caste supremacists for manipulating history and Buddhist culture and for trying to destroy Buddhism from India systematically. In the movie, the oldest child of Thangalaan is named ASHOK, referencing how ASHOKA brought back Buddhism. You will find stories about how the Pandavas, Rama, or Krishna lived in this forest or rested on that rock. In contrast, any trace of Buddhist worship or the presence of Bhikkus (Buddhist monks) has been given a Brahminical makeover. It was not a coincidence that Buddhism and the Dalit cultural identity got Vedicised. There is a context to it which Pa Ranjith has woven into Thangalaan very intricately. Over time, the story of a Naga tribal-Dalit woman leader whose blood turned into gold was twisted, and became the story of the blood of a deer, shot by Rama’s arrow, turning into gold. This is an example of how Brahminism captured cultural power along with political, economic, and social authority. A film like Thangalaan, then, is an attempt to reclaim cultural history and identity.
*"Thangalan by Pa. Ranjith"* Everybody knows what to expect from Pa. Ranjith, one of the directors committed to his school of ideology and the film “Thangalan” does not disappoint the audience in this respect. The film is based on the real events of the 19 century India. History repeats again and again mercilessly and it will continue so till the exploitation of the weak by the strong persists and the narrative discourse of this film is a socio, cultural, economic and political structure where the absolute power corrupts absolutely. The story is relevant even today as the struggle for liberty, equality and fraternity continues in one form or the other in all parts of our civilized world. This film demands an intensely attentive viewing, as so many nonlinear, generational events of a particular historical background are juxtaposed using the technique of the stream of consciousness with authentic settings, make up, attire and the music superbly composed with the instruments of the folks of the bygone eras by G.V. Prakash Kumar and no wonder it is even difficult for some to identify the lead actors in their very first introductory scene. What a stellar performance by the protagonists lived on screen by Vikram and Parvathy as Thangalan as well as his predecessors including Aaraan and Gangamma respectively forgetting their screen images supported by another supporting actor Pasupathi as Gengupattar, in a role of a comic relief with an avowed desperate hope for Sanskritisation of his clan in the otherwise pathetic life story of the depressed, suppressed, exploited aborigines! Many discerning viewers will not miss the symbolism of the statue that resembles the neo Buddhism, the wearing of the shirts and trousers by the male protagonist on only a very few occasions, while his brethren are half naked with their traditional attire throughout, the euphoric scene of wearing of the blouses by their female counterparts, signifying their historical struggles like paying of mulaivari tax to cover their breasts with clothes, the empowering role of knowing the language of the ruler, when the hero questions not only the translation of the ruler’s speech by his privileged stooges into the native tongue with the hidden agenda but also the villainy of the caste hierarchy to dehumanize the lowest stratum stamped as the untouchables, destined to lead a subhuman life, the preference of food, when a buffalo becomes an object of a sumptuous feast and the role of Aarathi by Malavika Mohanan, the great grand mother who guards the treasure and her blood alone could make it gold. There is a danger of the repetition of history when Thangalans of the previous generations use the treasure for the welfare of their own clan with a sense of revenge and retaliation, as the greed for gold has the destructive power of dehumanizing both the possessors and those who are denied of it. Further when the suppressed are endowed partially with education and skills development in order to subserve the hidden agenda of their masters as their faithful subordinates as wage earners, there were no chances of their real, ideal empowerment and that could be the reason for the denial of genuine gold ultimately to the leadership of the clan. And just the shifting of the role play between the suppressor and the suppressed will not eliminate the suppression any time. So the ideal situation is when Thangalan of the present generation should make use of gold endowed with him by the guardian angel Aarati for the upliftment of his own clan for their own welfare and development to lead a normal life of the truly independent representative of the society in coexistence with all other sections. Hope if Aarathi’s boon sends this message clearly, then there is a scope for the establishment of the equitable, peaceful society. Does the film register it crystal clearly? You have to watch the film critically to find it out. Finally we should appreciate the director and his entire team for offering us a visual treat of an art film in a commercial frame extraordinarily. However a tight editing, clear dubbing and catchy dialogues would have elevated its overall impact. Dr. R. Arunachalam 15/08/2024 Postscript: We met the creative actor Parthiban incidentally at Brooks, Coimbatore today, on our independence day. In our interaction he asked us if we had watched his latest film Teenz. When I replied ‘yet to watch’, his crisp reply is “You can watch it after five years”. Here lies the originality of one of the experimenting actors! I am clean bowled!!

Now i am identifying that vikram is in the lead role 😅😅 Kudos to whole team of Thangalaan🙏👍. Pa ranjhit,vikram,parvathi👍👍. Extra ordinary film. Thanks to pa ranjhit.
What a brilliant, inspiring and encouraging reply from Ranjith sir , standing on thoughts. ❤salute to whole team .so much place to all characters that's all about it Gener,race and ethnicity . Good interview as well
Kudos for acknowledging that the oppression still persists in various parts and sections in india. And acknowledging their privileged caste , or rather oppressive caste . Rightly said by Parvathy. Instead of false pride , knowing and acknowledging the truth when it comes to caste , will go a long way in uniting indians instead of false pride and still trying to demean the oppressed ones!
So many years before dalits womens are not allowed to wear blouse upper eye cast women only allowed to wear the scene correctly and amazingly shown in the movie I congrats to PA Ranjith given a fantabulous movie I enjoyed the movie thanks to chiyaan Vikram to give super action and beautiful acting.
