Vijay Sethupathi's latest Tamil web series, Muthu Alias Kaattaan, has received overwhelmingly negative reviews. The series, directed by M. Manikandan, premiered on JioHotstar on March 27 and has disappointed audiences with its slow-burning narrative and lack of engaging storyline.
The 10-episode investigative dark comedy has been criticized for its poor screenplay and lack of substance. Despite the talented cast, including Milind Soman, Sudev Nair, and Risha Jacobs, the series has failed to impress viewers.
M. Manikandan, known for his critically acclaimed films like Kaaka Muttai and Aandavan Kattalai, had raised expectations with this project. However, Muthu Alias Kaattaan has fallen short, leaving audiences unimpressed.
The series' disappointing response is surprising, given Manikandan's track record with films like Kuttrame Thandanai and Kadaisi Vivasayi. Fans had hoped that his collaboration with Vijay Sethupathi would yield something special.
