Sivakarthikeyan’s ‘Parasakthi’ Gets Mixed Audience Response

Sivakarthikeyan’s film ‘Parasakthi’, which released on January 10, 2026, came with high expectations from fans, but the response from audiences and critics has been mixed.

The film has been praised for its unique concept, which portrays the Hindi imposition agitations of the 1960s in a realistic way. Many viewers also appreciated the strong performances of the main cast. However, some parts of the movie included exaggerations and fictional elements, which drew criticism from certain sections of the audience.

At the box office, the film opened with good footfalls, largely due to the popularity of Sivakarthikeyan and the audience’s curiosity about the political context explored in the movie. Director Sudha Kongara’s direction was also noted as a key factor in attracting viewers.

Overall, while ‘Parasakthi’ has several strong points, such as its performances and historical context, some viewers felt it did not fully live up to the hype and expectations surrounding its release.
