Husband name Ranasingam)[a] is a 2020 Indian Tamil-language political drama film written and directed by P. Virumaandi in his directorial debut.

[2] Based on a true story, the film follows Ariyanachi (Aishwarya Rajesh), a poor woman who strives to bring her deceased husband's body back to India from Dubai, battling the odds of political agenda, corruption and a treacherous bureaucracy that stand in her way.

The film began production in June 2019, and was completed in October 2019, being extensively shot in Ramanathapuram and a few sequences in Hyderabad and Dubai.

As the function is happening, Maayi, Ranasingam's younger sister, learns that his brother died during a protest in Dubai through the police.

Ariyanachi gets a call from Ranasingam's friends abroad, saying that he did not die during a protest but during an accident, while he was working in the oil factory.

Ariyanachi decides to talk to the local MLA (Namo Narayana), Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, and others, but nothing worked.

Originally scheduled for a theatrical release in January 2020, Ka Pae Ranasingam was postponed due to post-production delays and the COVID-19 pandemic.

[20] M. Suganth of The Times of India gave the film a rating of 3 out of 5 stars and stated that "We understand that Ariyanachi's quest for justice is a long and weary one, but we wish director P Virumandi had found a way to narrate this take in a swifter fashion.

[22] Ranjani Krishnakumar of Firstpost gave 4 out of 5 and stated "Ka Pae Ranasingam reminds us that resistance is an exhausting endeavour; they will not kill you, they will simply wear you down.

"[23] Pradeep Kumar of The Hindu wrote "Despite its flaws, Ka Pae Ranasingam offers interesting commentary on State apathy.

If you can gather enough patience to last its runtime in one sitting, and can also look past the shortcomings of its PPV host, Ka Pae Ranasingam can indeed be some experience.

"[24] The Indian Express, chief editor Manoj Kumar R, gave 4 out of 5 stars and stated "Aishwarya Rajesh is a revelation.

Vijay Sethupathi, as usual, brings charm to his turn as a well-read and emotionally well-balanced youth leader.

"[28] Sowmya Rajendran of The News Minute gave 3.5 out of 5 and stated "Vijay Sethupathi is one of the leads but it is Aishwarya Rajesh who shoulders the film.
