Sivakarthikeyan's Ayalaan gets OTT release date

Sivakarthikeyan's recently-released film Ayalaan is all set to land on OTT platform Sun NXT on February 9, announced the makers.

Taking to the social media handles, Sun NXT wrote, "Thamizh and Tattoo are all set to meet you on February 9th."

It is to be noted that the film has extensive CGI shots, made specifically for the alien. More than 4000 CGI shots are there in Ayalaan, which is the most for an Indian film. 

The film, which was released on January 12, received positive reviews from the audience as well as critics, with many praising the VFX team for creating the alien character.

Our CE review of the film read, "Since the film succeeds in making us buy the alien in the initial couple of minutes, the tried-and-tested emotional formula of projecting the character as an empath and do-gooder akin to its human counterpart falls into place without much hassle. And now that we have started rooting for the kind-hearted Tattoo, we aren't bothered much about the cardboard villain or his sidekicks."
