About Thangalaan
Rated 6.8 on IMDb and helmed by Pa Ranjith, the film stars Chiyaan Vikram in five roles along with Parvathi and Malvika Mohanan. The official synopsis of the film says, “Based on the true events that revolve around the lives of mine workers in the Kolar Gold Fields, Karnataka.”
Note: The debut week viewership numbers are the official numbers given by Netflix for all the films that arrived on the platform, irrespective of the day they arrived in a week. Some arrived on the fourth day of a week, some on the 5th, and so on, but the debut numbers are calculated by Netflix weekly, not day-wise.
