Lokesh Kanagaraj Stuck in a Genre Trap?
No matter how talented a director is, if he makes a film only in the commercial line of his strength, at one stage the audience will get bored. After that he has to wrestle again to maintain his career. Now lokesh is also preparing mafia and drugs back drop stories for all his movies. Trying this made a difference in Leo's movie. There was also trolling. In this situation, as a director, lokesh definitely needs to come out of this mafia and drugs background and make movies with different concepts.
Otherwise, if the films are made in the same way in stereotypes, the audience will not be able to support them. Audiences are not much interested in watching routine drama. Currently, not only lokesh but many directors are making movies with mafia background stories. It is believed that such stories will have a pan india impact. But this may not last long.
