Maareesan's plot and reception

The narrative follows Dhaya (played by Fahadh), a thief who sets out to swindle Velayudham (Vadivelu), a man battling Alzheimer’s. What begins as a scheme to rob him gradually transforms into a journey that changes both their lives in unexpected ways.

With music by Yuvan Shankar Raja and cinematography by Kalaiselvan Sivaji, the film was lauded during its theatrical run, especially for the strong performances of the lead actors.

Kamal Haasan’s praise

Veteran actor Kamal Haasan also expressed his admiration for Maareesan. Sharing his thoughts on X, he wrote: “Watched Maareesan - a film that dances effortlessly between wit and depth, leaving me laughing, thinking, and admiring its craft. Had a wonderful conversation with the team to congratulate them on this delightful creation.”

He further added: “Beneath its humour lies a socially conscious lens on human emotion and a keen gaze at the darker shadows of our society. The kind of inventive, spirited cinema I naturally gravitate towards - both as viewer and creator.”
