This movie was promoted as a Kangana Ranaut movie which was a smart move as she is basking high on the success of Queen and also won a national award for it.But R.Madhavan too is an integral part of the movie.Everybody is giving the credit for it's success only to kangana and not madhavan?Why?Was his role that bad or his acting was not good?If kangana is Bollywood superstar then madhavan too is/was a southern films superstar(agreed 'southern films superstar' status has no value in Bollywood).
I haven't watched the movie yet but all I hear is kangana was great in the movie,the film earned 100 crores only because of kangana,etc.,etc.
What about Madhavan?Why isn't he getting credit for the success of the movie? Or am I missing something?

Queen effect...otherwise...TWMR is as much Madhvan's movie as it is Kangna's ...I don't even know why people r calling it woman oriented...it is NOT...its a story of a dysfunctional couple and how they try to overcome it...
BTW the movie was total paisavasool...loved it.

These days Kangana is soaring way too high. She's not even as great as people are making her out to be! :/

Because Seeta or Geeta is not remembered as Sanjeev Kapoor's or Dharmendra's movie.. Chaalbaaz is not known for Sunny Deol or Rajnikant's movie.. :)

TWMR is primarily a comedy. Deepak Dobriyal and Kangana are the main characters who made the movie a fun ride. So if you look at it that way then Maddy's was more of a supporting role. I watched the movie twice and that's because of Deepak, Kangana and of course the terrific dialogues. So yeah, a huge chunk of credit does go to them. So if I have to give credit to the actors involved...that'd be Deepak and Kangana.

Because she is in double role and rocked both characters.


Everyone coming out of the theater is like... it felt 2 different people played Tanu & Datto.


Maddy deserves half credit. He was there in most frames. But, Maddy's character had to give expressions.. watching Kusum.. falling for her. seeing Tanu.. again missing her.. then getting confused, pining for her. While Pappi who was with Manu in all these scenes, had some hilarious dialogues. Deepak totally over-shadowed Maddy in every scene.

all the credit should be given to the director and the writers
and the scene stealer for me was pappi, I was watching him in the scenes not manu or dattu etc.

maddy,no doubt is a good actor but he had nothing to do in the film apart from looking helpless and giving pining looks.
