Judging from initial reactions to Raayan, Dhanush seems to have achieved what he set out to do. "Dhanush is forced to make several contrived choices to contain the running time of the movie. However, he makes up for this with beautifully shot and well-choreographed action sequences. Watch out for the interval action block. It's short but leaves a lasting impression on the mind. There are also many comedic moments, especially when SJ Suryah expresses great eagerness to learn how Raayan carried out a high-profile murder. Dhanush knows what the audience wants, and he delivers," read a 3-star review from Desimartini.
Bankrolled by Sun Pictures, Raayan revolves around four siblings and the fast-changing power dynamics among them. Dhanush plays an impassive elder brother who is willing to go to any extent to protect his family. Oscar-winning composer A. R. Rahman's background score and songs have already become a big hit with audiences.
Raayan also stars Prakash Raj, Selvaraghavan, Sundeep Kishan, Kalidas Jayaram, and Dushara Vijayan, among others.
