Aadukalam is all about Dhanush who is betrayed by his mentor in a very interesting backdrop. Its about Madurai where like Jallikattu, rooster fight also plays a significant role in the people living in the villages. People in this village give great importance to Rooster Fights and their pride is tied to rooster that wins. The story is about how a silly decision of not killing a rooster and making it take part in the rooster fight turns the life of Dhanush. The story is well supported by good music, interesting rooster fights (animation) and ruff & tuff acting from all the casts.
You will see people like Dhanush and his mentor in your real life. Bosses taking advantage of his power and overpowering his team members. The story clearly depicts the selfishness in human that can go to any levels of cheapness. Big mistakes that we do for small things is life is Aadukalam. The best analogy is when Dhanush-Dorai fight like rooster without understanding the background, by blindly following the instructions of their Mentor. That's Aadukalam for you!!!
I enjoyed it, except that I couldn't accept the climax while watching the movie (I am a typical masala movie watcher). But I believe this is the best climax that the director could have given to us. Watch it, you will feel the difference.
