Kalla Thuppakki (transl. Unlicensed gun) is a 2013 Indian Tamil-language thriller film directed by Logiyas and starring newcomers Vikky, Vijith, Prabhakaran, Tamilselvan, Kutty Anand and Savandhika.

Plot[edit]

Cast[edit]

Soundtrack[edit]

Music composed by SK Balachandran. Lyrics by DS. Gauthaman and Ilaya Kamban.[1] A critic from IANS wrote that the music is "neither melodious, nor peppy".[2] A critic from Behindwoods gave the music a rating of 0.5 out of 5 and stated that "On the whole, Kalla Thuppakki’s music is way off the mark".[3]

Controversy[edit]

The film was in the news for its similar title with Thuppakki (2012).[4][5] The makers of this film filed a case against the makers of that film for using a similar title.[6]

Release and reception[edit]

The film was initially scheduled to release on Deepavali of 2012 but was postponed to 2013.[7][8] A critic from The Times of India rated the film 0.5 out of 5 and said that "In the end, ‘Kallathuppakki’ misfires. The sloppy editing and uneven pacing only makes things worse".[9] A critic from Behindwoods rated the film 0 out of 5 and opined that "To sum it all, Kalla Thuppaakki is unbelievably inane and is a tiring watch and makes you wonder what the director was smoking to come up with such claptrap".[10]
