Theeran is a fictional character that has been inspired by real life Police officers. Karthi does an impressive job as the glorified hero Theeran and most of the film is carried by his character. Although at times the heroism is a bit too stretched that one may think that it would have been better if the sole focus of the narrative wasn't through the single character.
"Theeran Adhigaram Ondru" is a solid crime thriller which compromises a little for commercialization yet manages to be an impressive account of a brutal true story. As the title refers the film as Adhigaaram Ondru meaning Chapter One, there are chances of a sequel. But the Operation Bawariya story is finished here and since the character is fictional they can go on with a fictional story. Although, let us hope that it won't turn out like the atrocious "Singam" trilogy starring Surya, elder brother of Karthi. Read full review at Asianfilmvault
