Aanand L Rai and Kalyani Priyadarshan praise Karnan

Director Mari Selvaraj's second film Karnan released in theatres on April 9. The film stars Dhanush, Rajisha Vijayan, Lal and Natarjan Subramanian in lead roles. Karnan is now streaming on Amazon Prime Video almost after a month since its theatrical release. Those who couldn't watch Karnan in theatres are now rejoicing the film on an OTT platform.

Bollywood director Aanand L Rai recently watched the film and wrote, "OUTSTANDING & BRILLIANT...This is how you can describe this experience called #Karnan @mari_selvaraj What a storyteller The way you painted ur thoughts on the celluloid. Take a bow!! @dhanushkraja You are a magician mere bhai ..u should have told me. I thought u r an actor (sic).” Actress Kalyani Priyadarshan wrote, "I was disappointed when I missed Karnan in the theaters, but I finally managed to watch it today on @primevideoin ... There are some films you watch that make you proud to be in this industry and proud of your craft. This was one such film. How does @dhanushkraja sir manage to be so brilliant time and time again.. There were moments when I felt disturbed, intrigued, and amazed at the same time. But in fact, isn’t that what good cinema does? #karnanonprime (sic).”
