Poraali is a Tamil film released in 2011, directed by Samuthirakani and produced by M. Sasikumar. The movie stars Sandra Amy, Badava Gopi, and Gnanasambandam Gurunathan in lead roles. The movie revolves around the chaotic and corrupt political situation in Tamil Nadu. The story focuses on two strangers, Sasikumar and Bharani who share the same train compartment. Sasikumar is an educated man who has given up on making a living through his degree and is now working as a construction worker, whereas Bharani is a full-time drunkard, a former Tamil Nadu's folk dancer, and now makes a living as a kabaddi player.

As the train journey progresses, these two strangers bond over their shared interest in politics and their disdain for the corrupt system. They realize that they have to take matters into their hands to create a change. They decide to start a movement that will inspire people to stand up against the corrupt government. Their initial efforts are met with little success and ridicule from their own people. But they soon manage to gather like-minded people, and their campaign gains momentum.

Sasikumar's character is a social activist who believes in fighting for the rights of the poor and downtrodden. His speeches at the public gatherings are both moving and inspiring. Bharani's character, on the other hand, reflects the frustration and anger of the common man who is fed up with the current political situation. His character is a perfect foil to Sasikumar's calm and composed personality.

The movie also features two female leads, portrayed by Abinaya and Swasika. Abinaya plays a young researcher who intends to study the effects of an American food chain on the local economy. Swasika plays Sasikumar's wife, who is supportive of her husband's cause but also fears for his safety.

The movie is a commentary on the state of politics in Tamil Nadu and emphasizes the need for people to stand up for their rights. The movie's message is conveyed in a realistic and powerful way with the help of the performances by the lead actors.

Poraali's cinematography beautifully captures the essence of rural Tamil Nadu, and the music complements the movie's theme. The film has a gritty and realistic feel, which adds to its appeal.

In conclusion, Poraali is an inspiring and thought-provoking movie that is a must-watch for those who are interested in Indian politics and social issues. The movie's strong message and believable characters make it an engaging and entertaining watch.
