‘Kanguva’ movie directed by Siva and starring Suriya is facing a tough battle of survival amidst raining negative reviews. Suriya’s top-budget movie, made at Rs 350 crore, has been released in multiple languages.

With negative reviews clouding a mar over the movie, Suriya’s wife Jyotika had to do the saviour act with an Instagram post, that is now going viral.

Jyotika:

"I pen this note as Jyotika and a cinema lover and not actor Suriya's wife -Kanguva - a spectacle in cinema. So proud of you Suriya, for the actor you are and how you dare to dream to take cinema forward. Definitely the first 1/2 hr doesn’t work n the sound is jarring! Flaws r a part of most Indian films, so that’s only fair, especially in this kind of a film wherein one experiments largely! N it’s just the first 1/2 hr from the whole 3 hrs. But to be true, it’s an absolute cinematic experience!

I was shocked to hear the negative reviews coming from the media. They have not reserved such brutal criticism for illogical movies in the past that showed women getting stalked or over-the-top action sequences. In their attempt to tarnish the movie, they have missed the good portions of the movie.

It makes me wonder whether one should ever read, listen or believe them after all.

Kanguva actually deserves applause for the concept and the effort by the team to create 3D with such a magnificent visual.”
