The Great Sage) is a 2019 Indian Tamil-language action thriller film written and directed by Santhakumar.

[3] It was theatrically released by Tarun Pictures on 6 September 2019[4] to highly positive reviews from both critics and the audience.

Magadevan is a cab driver in Chennai and also works as a thug for a corrupt politician named Muthurajan.

Muniraj is a Good Samaritan and organic farmer who believes in Swami Vivekananda's teachings, thinks the world of Tamil literature, and lives in a village near Erode.

It is made clear that Maga is an atheist while Muni practices yoga and spreads the word of Hinduism.

Deepa is a journalism student and the daughter of a local landlord named Jayaraman, who is in awe of the soft-spoken Muni.

Muthuraj, in order to save himself and his nephew, enters into connivance with the police and makes Maga the bad guy.

Finally, the police finds Muni in a hospital (as he was admitted for his snakebite) and arrests him, mistaking him for Maga.

A small flashback is shown where Maga and Muni's mother Deivanai was mentally ill, and she left the two children alone on an empty train platform and went away.

[3] Filmmakers roped in actor Arya to play the male lead who was signed to portray dual roles, one an assassin and another a farmer and vallalar follower.

M Suganth of Times of india rated 3.5 out of 5 and stated that "Director Santhakumar intercuts these scenes of Maga with scenes featuring Muniraj (Arya), an astute lower caste person living with his mother in a village in Erode district.

Muni is facing an equally life-threatening problem, thanks to Deepa (Mahima Nambiar), the forward thinking daughter of Jayaraman (Jayaprakash), a big shot in the village.

"[11] Janani K of India Today wrote that "Director Santhkumar's second film Magamuni is an excellent social commentary on casteism, discrimination, politics and spirituality.
