Kamalini Mukherjee has nothing much to do other than giving a pissed-off look.В Kishore, Nandhu, Siddique, Makarand Deshpande and Bala are good in their roles. The child artist who acted as young Murugan deserves credit too. Telugu actor Jagapati Babu is the antagonist, and he is good enough as a rich looking villain. Rest of the cast manages to give adequate support. They donвЂ™t even run properly and here Mohanlal is doing a 3 person push up! HeвЂ™s brilliant throughout the movie, and even with the image of a fierce wild hunter, he manages to act as an innocent villager in other scenes with ease. HeвЂ™s better than any other Malayalam actor in pulling off such action sequences, and he is 56 years old! Actors of his age no longer do such physically demanding scenes. Action sequences such as these justify the Malayalam starвЂ™s вЂComplete ActorвЂ™ tag. A truly mass intro is given to the legend, and he is brilliant in the action sequence. Years later, another tiger attack occurs, and this is when Mohanlal enters the scene. Thus, he becomes a wild hunter, and a savior of the villagers. A young Murugan loses his father to one such attack,В and he decides to kill the tiger. The village gets its name due to frequent attacks from tigers (Puli) in the jungle. Murugan belongs to Puliyoor, a village located in dense forest. In fact this themeВ is the coreВ for majority of the well-choreographed action scenes. The man-animal clash opens up a lot more possibilities for the story, and the makers have used it very well.

The thing which is вЂdifferentвЂ™ in Pulimurugan is the man v/s wild backdrop. We have seen movies with similar theme, but when presented in a different way, like in this movie, it doesnвЂ™t seem as boring. This is the same with almost every other thing inВ Pulimurugan.

We can easily judge how dangerous an animal can be, but to do the same with humans is not easy.вЂќ This is a clichГ©d dialogue when people get betrayed, butВ when Mohanlal utters these words with his natural expressions, we feel for his character. вЂњPeople living with us are more dangerous than animals in the wild.
