Superhero/supervillain characters from Tamil cinema Marvel should adopt

OK, I know what you are thinking. Even though the superhero movies from Tamil cinema are not up to the standards of Marvel, but the core stories are really impressive. Marvel already has some Indian characters but Marvel should consider and adopt these characters and can improvise for Indian-based Super Hero. Let’s see that one by one.

Kanthaswamy

Kanthaswamy is a CBI officer who also a superhero. The name Kanthaswamy is the other name of Lord Murugan. People write their problems as a letter and tie them in a tree in the Kanthaswamy(Murugan) temple believing Lord Murugan will resolve their problems. The superhero Kanthaswamy gets all the letters reads them and helps the people with a crew. Kanthaswamy doesn’t have any superpowers, but his crew does tricks to portray him as a superhero. So, basically, Kanthaswamy is not a single person, it’s a team. The costume is designed like a rooster(which is considered to be a vehicle of Lord Murugan in Tamil Mythology).

Kanthaswamy

OK, the core story of this movie definitely not an interesting one. There is no proper reason why he helping as a “superhero”, but the way the team works is quite interesting. That’s the only reason this superhero comes on the list. (Mind voice: Coz, we don’t have enough superheroes in Tamil cinema to fill the list 😉)

I personally don’t like the movie, but if you want to watch the movie below are the streaming links.

Chitti

Chitti is the best Super Hero ever made in Tamil Cinema. Chitti is an andro-humanoid robot created by Dr Vaseegaran. Chitti’s abilities and disabilities are well defined in the movie Enthiran. Chitti has feelings, emotions just like humans. Chitti is one of the reasons I decided to write this story, the other reason comes later in this story post. The way Chitti created, trained, and accidentally getting emotions are crafted very well. Chitti is a funfilled innocent robot, the jokes by Chitti are just like children’s jokes(even the giggles).

Chitti

Abilities:

Chitti can speak almost all the languages. (Even he can talk with mosquitoes 😉) Chitti is knowledgeable and proficient in all forms of academia, martial arts, communication, creative outlets, athletic skills, and scientific ingenuity. Chitti is fire, water, and acid-resistant. Built-in electromagnetic body, which can attract any metallic object and weaponize it. Built-in vehicle. Eyes can be used as a projector. Can do holographic telecalls.

Disabilities

Flashing lights from photography or direct sunlight, which causes a “vision bleach” and temporarily distorts his sight. Susceptibility to battery drainage. However, in the case of the latter, he just needs to absorb a bare minimum amount of electric power to recharge himself in a matter of seconds. [And he can able to charge in both AC and DC 😉]

Chitti 2.0

Chitti 2.0 is nothing but a red chip(Destructive program by Dr Bohra). The red chip is inserted into Chitti, and it becomes a villain Chitti 2.0. So, the red chip can be considered like a symbiote to robots that can alter the robot. Chitti 2.0 can write programs and able to replicate himself into many robots to create an army. The army can be combined and turn into any big shape (Mostly sphere or Megazord kind). Chitti 2.0’s jokes are dark or adult. Chitti used to talk in a troll way sometimes, which is the ultimate identity of Chitti 2.0 (Vasi, meeehhhh…. 😉). Chitti 2.0 also has an in-built gun in his hand and it was created by himself.

Velayudham

Velayudham is again another name of Lord Murugan, it also means the weapon of Lord Murugan. It is a remake movie from Telugu cinema, and the core story is very strong, and this is the second reason for this story post. The costume was inspired(copied 😉) from the game Assasin’s Creed.

Velayudham is a fictional character created and propagated by a journalist believing that those who do evil things will stop doing evil because of the fear that Velayudham will punish them. People also think Velayudham is a superhero who saves people from those who do evil things and Velayudham doesn’t have any superpower. But in reality, there is no such Superhero. But fortunately, a guy named Velayudham was saving people from all the evil events without his knowledge, and later realizes he is the person people think the superhero Velayudham. At first, he refuses to continue as superhero Velayudham and asks the journalist to kill the character as created. After realizing the evil things, he accepts and continues as superhero Velayudham and strongly believes Velayudhayum is not a person or superhero, it is an ideology, whoever raises their voice against the evil is Velayudham.

Mugamoodi

Mugamoodi which means mask, the story is strongly inspired by the Batman trilogy and Kungfu Panda. This superhero also doesn’t have a superpower but he excels in martial arts. He was a big fan of Bruce Lee, so he changes his name to Bruce Lee. His grandfather is a tech enthusiast, he and his team create the suit. Again this superhero also doesn’t have a strong core story, but the way the team works is quite interesting.

Pakchirajan

An ornithologist who operated a bird sanctuary, Pakshi Rajan protests excessive use of mobile phones fearing that high-frequency electromagnetic radiation from cell sites is threatening avian life. He reports it to the telecommunications minister but they disregard the matter intentionally. Deeply frustrated, Pakshi hangs himself to death from a cell tower. Now his aura, combined with the negative energy of deceased birds, can control cell phones with electromagnetic radiation, which happens to be considered a fifth force. And later defeated by Chitti 2.0

The core story of Pakshi Rajan is very strong for a villain(Actually not a villain). And the character was inspired by a real person Sálim Moizuddin Abdul Ali. He was a renowned ornithologist of India. Due to his passion for birds and their conservation, he earned a nickname, The Birdman of India.

Kutti

Kutti(3.0) is a microbot created by Chitti 2.0. Kutti means small, and Kutti is small and smart. Kutti can transform into a mobile phone and a robot, he can use birds as a vehicle. Kutti also has an army of Kutties. Even though Kutti is loyal to Chitti 2.0, he is not harmful.

Hero

Sakthivel is inspired by a fictional Super Hero SakthiMaan. He always wanted to become Super Hero and help people. But he realizes Super Heros are fictional and he can’t be Super Hero. Besides, Sathyamoorthy, a teacher was wearing a mask and robbing money to provide Free education. Later, Sathyamoorthy was beaten by the villain and Sathyamoorthy becomes handicapped. So, he hides his identity and starts a secret school and educate poor students and the Students become very talented. The talented students and their mentor Sathyamoorthy again facing problems with the corporate which was against the project done by one of the Talent students related to Sakthi. So, the students create gadgets and suits that can resist fire, bullets, and don't tear to sharp weapons. Sakthi trains and wears the suit and become Super Hero using gadgets and resolve the problems. Like Velayudham, Sakthi also thinks Hero is not a person, it is an ideology, whoever has self-thinking is Super Hero.

Minnal Murali

Minnal Murali is an upcoming Malayalam movie, and it is going to release in Tamil simultaneously. Let’s wait and see what he is.

Final Thoughts

Unfortunately, there is no female superhero is created in Tamil movies. First of all, the superhero concept itself is not a selling thing in the Tamil movie industry. Except for Enthiran no movie was recognized. On the other hand, huge fans are there for MCU movies which means fans are always ready to receive superhero movies, but it should be entertaining. If these characters are recognized and adopted by Marvel, things can change.
