Movie Review
Beast is a Tamil action-comedy-drama film of Nelson. The super star is seen as the main protagonist in this movie, which also stars Pooja Hegde. This film, which was in the making and ready to be released in April 2022, was one of the most awaited films ever as it featured the most popular actor in Kollywood, Vijay, and coupled with the directorial skills of Nelson. It has been dealt with under a hostage crisis in a mall and where Vijay's character, who was previously a RAW agent, saves the day. With action, comedies, and moments of emotion, "Beast" was built to be an attractive offering for a broad audience, combining mass appeal with Nelson's own style of comedy and storytelling.
