![]() There is a police officer with a motive and hate for cinema, a girl who has been through the trauma of an eroding life in cinema, and above all is a star who is living in oblivion, but his father tries to showcase him as a dream. There is an interesting flashback (that culminates into very little outcome). Director Arivazhagan divides his show into segments. This is the story about what happens behind the scene. It isn’t a fictional world entirely, every Friday you wake up listening to the news of a certain film being leaked. Remember I said Meta? This is all that works in the show Tamil Rockerz, that is aware that the land it is set in. Or when Udta Punjab is mentioned and how the political ideology harassed the makers is addressed. A drunkard cine-goer stands outside a theatre and says, “Tamil cinema died with MGR” while singing an MGR song. A director father is promoting his son and building an image of him as a superstar whereas he lacks the substance to be one. It is all real.ĭo you know what else is real, the team showing a deeper conversation. There are gangs and competition between them. In another scene, a fan says he is ready to sacrifice his education for his favourite superstar. It’s 4:00 AM and fans are celebrating the first show with full gusto. It begins with a crowd worshipping a sky high standee of a superstar whose movie is about to release. It is in a way satire about the system it delves in. Story by Manoj Kumar Kalaivanan and screenplay by Manoj, Rajesh Manjunath and Arivazhagan (also the director) is not just tackling piracy. Tamil Rockerz is about a thing that is real, but the makers write a fictional tale while making a commentary on the real status of the Tamil cinema. Almost like a meta-documentary, where it is real but that doesn’t mean you omit the drama. The tricky part is that everything needs to look real but also create drama that keeps the audience engrossed in it. The format of setting a camera behind the scenes and shooting what goes on in the background of a movie is back in style and very intriguing. In a meta-fictional tale, the lives of people involved in making a film Garuda are at stake as the piracy giant has taken an oath to pirate their movie and leak it before the release. It is an obviously an illegal website that pirates movies many times even before the release. The King Pin of that tradition at this point is the infamous Tamil Rockerz. Haunting the film business and people involved in the ghost of piracy.
