Silambarasan TR's first big film of 2023, Pathu Thala, has been declared a blockbuster and is running strong in over 300 screens in its second week. Directed by Obeli N. Krishna of Sillunu Oru Kaadhal fame and produced by K. E. Gnanavelraja's Studio Green in association with Jayantilal Gada's Pen Studios banner, the neo-noir action thriller featuring music composed by Academy Award winner A. R. Rahman has registered one of the highest collections in Simbu's career, while also becoming a profitable venture for the makers. With Pathu Thala continuing to witness a terrific audience turnout in theatres, the much-awaited 'Nee Singam Dhan' video song has finally been released much to the excitement of STR's fans everywhere.
Sung by Sid Sriram to the lyrics penned by Vivek, 'Nee Singam Dhan' is an uplifting number and is centered on AG Ravana or AGR, the character played by Simbu in Pathu Thala. The song shows glimpses of STR as a revered figure among the people in the Kanyakumari district and as their savior, with the film's lead pair Gautham Karthik and Priya Bhavani Shankar also being featured. 'Nee Singam Dhan' has been widely requested by fans ever since fans got to witness Silambarasan in action mode in Pathu Thala, which is incidentally the actor's career-best opening making 12.3 crores on day one of its release (on a working day with no early morning shows).
Apart from STR being one of the biggest strengths of Pathu Thala, the performances of Gautham Karthik, Priya Bhavani Shankar, and filmmaker Gautham Vasudev Menon, who plays the antagonist, have received praise. A. R. Rahman's powerful musical score in the film has once again garnered him appreciation from fans and music critics, who have claimed his work to be one of his best in recent times. Pathu Thala is also Silambarasan's third consecutive box office hit after the spectacular success of his Maanaadu (2021) and Vendhu Thanindhathu Kaadu Part I: The Kindling (2022), and fans will no doubt be hoping for him to continue his winning streak.
