The affectionate, uncompromising / unflinching, uncontrollable man), also known as AAA, is a 2017 Indian Tamil-language romantic action comedy film, directed by Adhik Ravichandran and produced by S. Michael Rayappan.
The film has music composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja, with Krishnan Vasant and Ruben handling the cinematography and editing, respectively.
To further his plan, he hires a prominent makeup artist to transform his appearance, intending to use their resemblance to pose as Shiva and win over Ramya.
Adapted from the opening credits:[3] In February 2016, Adhik Ravichandran announced that his second directorial project would star Silambarasan, with several crew members from his earlier film Trisha Illana Nayanthara returning.
[2] The review of The Indian Express was slightly more on the positive side, rating the film 3 out of 5 stars, and stating that "AAA's highlight would be the dialogues, especially ones about lead actor Simbu's father TR Rajendran and humour will draw audience to the theatres.
"[20] Sreedhar Pillai, for Firstpost, rated the film 2 out of 5 and summarised that "AAA is hugely disappointing and a crashing bore.
"[21] Srivatsan of India Today rated 2 out of 5 stars, stating that "From what we get, Adhik Ravichandran wanted to bring Subramaniyapuram into his of Trisha Illana Nayanthara space.
Save for the bits with Madurai Michael, there's no denial that Anbanavan Asaradhavan Adangathavan is not even an ordinarily made film.
[22] Baradwaj Rangan wrote for Film Companion, "Adhik Ravichandran appears to make movies with male gaze.
"[5] Several months after the film's release, producer S. Michael Rayappan and Adhik publicly criticised Silambarasan for his alleged unprofessional behavior during production.
During the first schedule, Silambarasan reportedly refused to film a song sequence, unfairly requested that Saran be replaced after she had completed her scenes, demanded the shoot be moved from Dubai to London, and failed to meet the script's requirement to reduce his body weight.
Silambarasan also allegedly cancelled the third schedule, demanded that the film be released in two parts, and sent his team to Thailand at the producers' expense.
[10][23] Sources close to Silambarasan countered that Rayappan failed to pay his full remuneration, which caused him to avoid many shoot days.
[24][25] In September 2023, the Tamil Film Producers Council was announced to have issued a "red card" to Silambarasan, prohibiting him from working on new projects until further notice.
