Onaayum Aattukkuttiyum

Released in 2013, Onaayum Aattukkuttiyum, a Tamil neo-noir thriller, unfolds a riveting tale directed by Mysskin. The film's title, translating to "The Wolf and the Lamb," metaphorically encapsulates the intricate conflict at its core.


The plot introduces audiences to a mysterious, wounded man (played by Mysskin) whose chance encounter with a compassionate doctor (played by Sri) unravels a complex web of morality, justice, and redemption. As the man grapples with a troubled past, a relentless pursuit by the police ensues, leading to a suspenseful and morally charged narrative.


Mysskin's directorial finesse shines through in the film's minimalistic yet impactful approach. The tight screenplay, atmospheric cinematography by Balaji V. Rangha, and the evocative background score by Ilaiyaraaja collectively contribute to the film's intense atmosphere.


Onaayum Aattukkuttiyum received widespread critical acclaim for its departure from conventional Tamil cinema narratives. It stands as a testament to Mysskin's unique storytelling and the film industry's potential for nuanced and thought-provoking neo-noir cinema. With engaging plot twists and well-defined characters, the film has left an indelible mark on the landscape of Tamil thrillers.
