Nayakan, Roja, Bombay, Iruvar, Thalapathi, Thiruda Thiruda, Uyire are some of the Mani Ratnam films available for streaming. Although an unmemorable drama, you might want to watch it if you’re curious to see how the Ajith-Vijay combination might have turned out.

This one’s an evergreen rib tickler written and directed by Chitralaya Gopu, first as a stage play. If you’re still not sure if you want to watch this film, all you need to do is listen to ‘Va Arugil va, thaa uyirai thaa’ song from the film - An eerie melody that translates into ‘come closer, give me your life’.
