R Madhavan features in the Tamil sports drama Test alongside actors like Siddharth and Nayanthara. R Madhavan, Nayanthara, and Siddharth’s Test finally premiered on OTT on Friday, April 4, garnering a mixed response from viewers. Directed and written by S.
Sashikanth, the Tamil sports drama opted for a direct-to-OTT release after a prolonged delay. While fans appreciated the strong performances of R Madhavan and Nayanthara, the film’s concept did not resonate with everyone. Many viewers took to social media to share their opinions.
One user expressed disappointment, stating, “Struggled through Test, a film with an interesting one-line idea and three solid performers, but reduced to an absolute mess." “Big congratulations to @sash041075 and team #Test A powerful, heartfelt debut that beautifully brings together ambition, sacrifice and human spirit. Wishing the film great success," another added.
Not everyone was impressed by the film, as a section of internet users even pointed out the flaws. A user, while giving a rating of 2.5 out of 5, wrote, “A sports-based drama with family sentiment.
Slow first half, a poor screenplay and BGM. Watchable, worth it only for Maddy and Nayan." Another unhappy user added, “#Test—Total Disappointment.
Despite having talented actors like #Madhavan & #Siddharth, the film fails to utilise their potential. Boredom from beginning to end. None of the scenes are appealing.
Wondering how a film with such an outdated plot and tedious screenplay got materialised." Film critic Het Tanna shared a detailed review, stating that the film’s screenplay had a lot of flaws and was overly dramatic despite having potential. “Performance-wise, it is a decent show.
#RMadhavan is wasted; he is such a good performer, but this role limits him very much, although he has done a good job. #Nayanthara shines and delivers a solid act, #Siddharth is sincere and #MeeraJasmine is appropriate with her act," he added. With lukewarm responses on the first day of release, it is now yet to be seen if the film fares well in the coming days.
The film focuses on the story of three people who find their worlds colliding during an international cricket test match in Chennai..
