For any actor, the ‘opening’ of his film matters a lot. In filmy parlance, ‘opening’ refers to the box-office collection via ticket sales at counters in theatres during the first 7-10 days where the star’s film is released. It’s is this ‘opening’ which decides as to whether or not a film turns out to be a hit venture. Superstar Rajinikanth leads the pack followed by Ajith, Suriya and Vijay in commanding a grand opening.
Suriya’s Maattrraan hit the screens all over the world yesterday. In Chennai and in other parts of the State, huge crowds were spotted outside all the cinema halls where Maatraan has been screened. As the first day has passed, feedback about the film and Suriya’s performance in it has started trickling in from the fans who have watched the film on the first day itself.

'Sometimes the ending will be the beginning,' says the caption of Maattrraan but it has an ending in the beginning! KV Anand's film has rare characters of conjoined twins but has a predictable story and appears like a second part of Surya's last movie7aum Arivu directed by AR Murugadoss.

Maatran Movie Review from FDFS Show Maattrraan is centered around the conjoined twins, Vimalan and Akilan. But, that is just the tip of the iceberg. Maattrraan is centered around the conjoined twins, Vimalan and Akilan. But, that is just the tip of the iceberg. The plot is much bigger than the conjoined twins as it touches upon key contemporary international issues such as Genetic Modified Food(GMF) and fictional account of its genesis dating back to Russian cold war. In the first half, the comedy scenes between the conjoined twins is the highlight of the movie while the 2nd half will take you to uncharted territories, exploring both geographical and emotional boundaries. All these concepts are tightly integrated by masterful writing told in an easily understandable narration style. There lies the success of the writers KV Anand and Suba.
