Vishnu Vishal‘s ‘Gatta Kusthi 2’ has been released in theatres and has been receiving positive feedback from the audiences. After the success of the first film, expectations were high for the sequel, and initial reactions on X (formerly Twitter) suggest it has lived up to the hype for many viewers. Fans have lauded the film’s cocktail mix of comedy, family sentiments, and commercial entertainment, and it has become one of the most discussed Tamil releases of the week.
Fans call ‘Gatta Kusthi 2′ a sure shot winner
Early viewers have filled social media with positive reactions after watching the film. One fan wrote, “Gatta Kusthi 2 – sure shot winner. Chella Ayyavu brings back the charm of old Bhagyaraj movies with a new-age touch.” Another praised Vishnu Vishal, saying, “He is super energetic and proves comedy is also his cup of tea.” Several users also lauded Aishwarya Lekshmi’s performance. One of the posts read, “The kid Zara is a major plus. She’s cute, and she is a good performer too.” The film, many thought, managed to deliver progressive ideas while staying within a commercial format.
Loud cheers for Comedy, climax, and Vijay reference
The second half has become the biggest talking point among the fans. One viewer called the film a “Pakka commercial family entertainer with a superb second half,” adding that the “Karunas portions, teacher comedy and court scene are comedy blasts.” Another post described it as “a must-watch with your family,” while another simply wrote, “Awesome to watch… sirichi vayiru valikuthu da.” Fans also said the Vijay reference sparked loud cheers inside theatres, and many appreciated the satisfying climax that hints at a possible third instalment. A few viewers, however, felt the sequel did not match the freshness of the original, calling it an average follow-up.
Vishnu Vishal and Aishwarya Lekshmi reunite for the sequel
Directed by Chella Ayyavu, ‘Gatta Kusthi 2’ brings back Vishnu Vishal and Aishwarya Lekshmi after the success of the 2022 hit. The film also stars Karunas, Munishkanth, Kaali Venkat, Karunakaran, Ramya Krishnan, Yogi Babu, child artist Zara, and Malayalam actress Moksha in important roles. With positive word-of-mouth from a majority of early viewers, the sequel has made a promising start and will now aim to translate the strong social media buzz into a successful box office run.
