Iraivan
Iraivan (transl. God) is a 2023 Tamil-language psychological action thriller film directed by I. Ahmed and produced by Sudhan Sundaram and G. Jayaram under Passion Studios. The film stars Ravi Mohan, Nayanthara, Narain, Vinoth Kishan and Rahul Bose in the lead roles, while Vijayalakshmi, Charle, Ashish Vidyarthi, Azhagam Perumal and Bagavathi Perumal in supporting roles.
The film was announced in March 2022 without a title, which was revealed only that September. Principal photography commenced in March 2022 and wrapped by that November. The music is composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja, while the cinematography and editing are handled by Hari K. Vedantam and J. V. Manikanda Balaji.
Iraivan was released on 28 September 2023, where it received mixed-to-negative reviews from critics and became a box-office bomb.
Arjun is an DCP known for his unorthodox approach to apprehending suspects through lethal encounters rather than adhering to standard arrest protocols. He harbors affection for Priya, the sister of his colleague and friend, Andrew. However, he hesitates to commit to marriage due to the enemies he has amassed during his aggressive law enforcement career, anticipating retaliation from those he has crossed.
Meanwhile, the city is gripped by fear as a psychopathic serial killer, nicknamed the "Smile-Killer" for leaving distinctive smiley face notes near the crime scenes, abducts and gruesomely murders young girls. Arjun and Andrew are assigned to this harrowing case. Tragically, Andrew loses his life while confronting the killer, who is later identified as Brahma. Haunted by the trauma of this investigation, Arjun resigns from the police force. Together with Priya, he embarks on a new path by opening a cafe, seeking a tranquil existence.
A year later, panic resurfaces when reports suggest that Brahma has escaped from prison. Subsequently, Shanmugam, the doctor responsible for Brahma's care while incarcerated, is found dead. Shanmugam's daughter Swetha too falls victim to the same gruesome fate as Brahma's prior victims, bearing the killer's signature. Arjun is sent a death threat letter, seemingly from Brahma. The Smile-Killer's spree intensifies, with increasingly brutal acts and the disturbing practice of sending video footage of the victims' torment and murder to their families and the media. The grim videos drive some family members of the victims to commit suicide.
The disappearance of Shalu, the only survivor of a previous encounter with Brahma, draws the attention of the police and Arjun. There is a belief that Brahma has abducted her once again to complete his unfinished task. Investigations reveal that Brahma may not intend to kill Shallu because he sees her as a willing participant, given her nymphomaniac tendencies. In a previous abduction, Shalu's response to Brahma's torture was arousal rather than fear, which diverged from Brahma's typical satisfaction derived from his victims' screams of panic. Arjun eventually locates the site where Shalu is held captive, the same place where Brahma was previously apprehended. A confrontation ensues, during which Arjun questions Brahma's role and discovers that someone else has been using Brahma's name for the most recent murders, but Brahma refuses to reveal the other person's identity. The police arrives and fatally shoots Brahma.
The Smile-Killer's reign of terror continues, raising suspicions that another individual is impersonating Brahma. After a thorough investigation, Arjun believes that Babu, an assistant to Church Father Sebastian and a previous suspect, is the copycat killer. However, evidence implicates Arjun when it is revealed that the video of Shalu's captivity was sent from his location. In an attempt to apprehend Babu, Arjun uses his characteristic aggressive methods. The police intervenes to save Babu, and in the heated exchange, Arjun confesses to kidnapping Shalu and sending the video to a TV channel. He insists that it was a play to trap Brahma as he knew that Brahma considered Shalu a partner rather than a victim. Meanwhile, Babu goes to the media regarding his mistreatment at the hands of Arjun and the police force, leading to the public sentiment leaning in his favor.
