Removed. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 03:11, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Plot

• You need to mention what an IG is in this section.

Is linking to the relevant article enough, or should i add a note? Please make it clear. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 03:11, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Expand it. The acronym IG can mean a lot of things.

Done. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 06:14, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Production

• "This was well before it turned into a commercial success." is undue as well as unsourced.

I don't know it was undue or not. But definitely not unsourced. Still, i shall remove it. Pavanjandhyala (talk)

• "Roshan Basheer was selected to play his own role of Varun" Not sure what "play his own role" means.

Rephrased as "... selected to reprise the role of Varun..."

• Not sure how relevant this trivia is: "During set construction for the police station and the house in the film, the producer and the director wanted to get rid of some coconut trees. However, art director Vivek managed to erect those sets without cutting down any trees, which garnered him their appreciation"

I think it can stay in the article as it not that trivial. At least, something on the lines of this — "Kikku Yerudhey" was the last song sequence that was shot. For the sequence, Rajinikanth required Ravikumar to sport an outfit similar to Rajinikanth's, and enact a small part in the song. Rajinikanth also selected the part of the song where Ravikumar would make his appearance. After reluctantly agreeing to do the part, a scene was filmed featuring Rajinikanth and Ravikumar. Rajinikanth said he felt the shot did not look right, and re-takes for Ravikumar's sequence were done. After the re-takes were completed, Rajinikanth admitted that the first sequence was fine. When Ravikumar asked the cameraman why he had not told him earlier, the cameraman replied by saying that Rajinikanth wanted Ravikumar to do seven takes, in order to teach him a lesson for all the takes that Ravikumar had required of Rajinikanth. from Padayappa.

Not sure what you mean by pasting this massive quote from I-don't-know-which article. --Krimuk|90 (talk) 05:43, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

I expected that you shall say this. This quote, i mean, the paragraph is from Padayappa, one of the very few GAs of Rajinikanth's films. I thought, when the actor playing a joke with the director can be included; i'm sure that this fact related to Drushyam is not-so-trivial. Actually, the first one isn't trivial completely. A thorough read of Padayappa can help. Still if you feel the fact in Drushyam is trivial, i have no objection to remove it. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 06:14, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

I'm okay with it, as long as you remove the "which garnered him their appreciation" part.

Removed the appreciation part and merged the paragraphs. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 06:52, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Reception

• BollywoodLife is a gossip site and not considered a WP:RS. Same for the soundtrack section.

But BollywoodLife is a part of Zee Network right? Pavanjandhyala (talk) 06:14, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Even if the parent publication is notable, a gossip site should never be used to cite info.

Alright. Removed the review. Replaced BollywoodLife with IANS Live in the "Development" and "Marketing" sections. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 06:52, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Good job overall. --Krimuk|90 (talk) 02:55, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for reviewing the article, Krimuk90! Hope your issues have been resolved. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 06:52, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
