Perarasu’s sixth film, and he still continues with his fascination for naming his movies after places. He also continues following the set pattern and formula he is known for. Thiruvannamalai marks the first time Perarasu has got together with Action King Arjun. Considering the style of Perarasu and the kinds of films that Arjun does, one is surprised that it took this long for this combination to happen. Thiruvannamalai deals with the injustice and atrocities in society and how tough life has become in the midst of such complete chaos. In fact, the movie is at times, a debate over the better way to counter or face such bad elements of society; the violent way or the more Gandhian way, though there is no direct reference to Gandhian methods.
