Tamizh Padam 2

A sequel to the successful Thamizh Padam (2010), the film stars Shiva, Iswarya Menon, Sathish, and Disha Pandey.

Shiva, the universal cop, has left the police department and has returned to his hometown of Cinemapatti.

Once the situation is handled, he is asked to join the department by Police Commissioner Yezhusaamy, but he refuses and walks away.

P, a dreaded don who poses a threat to society, kills Shiva's wife Priya by using a cell phone bomb.

Shiva sketches a plan to catch P by demonetising 500 and 1000 rupee notes with the help of the government.

The demonetisation forces P to stand at an ATM queue because he had a lakh crores of 1000 rupee notes.

Adhiyamaan also said that the winner will get a jackfruit, which will give immortality to the one who eats it, and also his daughter Khaleesi will marry him, but Piyaar's henchmen kill Bharathamuni and his grandmother.

Worried that Shiva's romantic relationships with other women would result in their eventual deaths, his grandmother kills him, revealing her villainous "D" nature albeit being acquitted in the first film.

Director C. S. Amudhan confirmed that pre-production work was underway for a sequel to Thamizh Padam (2010) during July 2017.

The film would feature Shiva reprising the lead role, while S. Sashikanth of YNOT Studios would be the main producer.

"[14] Behindwoods wrote "Combining the emotions and famed moments of many films and personalities in the same scene was noteworthy.

"[15] Cinema Express wrote "While the film's willingness to let nobody off the hook is truly refreshing, the comedy doesn't work nearly as often as it should".

With a slew of spoof scenes taking potshots at umpteen number of Tamil movies, the unique attempt works this time, too.

"[31] Hindustan Times wrote "While the film is a laugh riot, it lacks the freshness Tamizh Padam had.
