But Ameer imbibes the film with so much of a rural atmosphere that the film still seems fresh. Paruthi Veeran is a familiar story(lovers from two families who are bitter enemies) in a familiar setting(a village where family and caste, not necessarily in that order, come before everything else). So inspite of Paruthi Veeran brushing her off, she pursues him doggedly. Enmity exists between Paruthi Veeran and his aunt's family but the aunt's daughter Muthazhagu(Priyamani) has decided that Paruthi Veeran is the man for her. His parter-in-crime is his uncle Sevvaazhai(Saravanan) and together, the two of them spend their time drinking, dining and sleeping. Ready to raise his hand and aruvaal at the slightest provocation, the jail is his second home. Paruthi Veeran(Karthi) lives a carefree life in the village of Paruthiyoor. Displaying consistence in his direction inspite of the versatility in his movies' genres, he presents a rural tale of love and violence in Paruthi Veeran, delivering a character-based story that is earthy, emotional and entertaining.
But with his third venture, the director proves that he is here to stay and deserves to be on that list on par with - or maybe, even above - those two.
When there is talk about young directors who are going to lead Tamil cinema into the next generation, Ameer is never mentioned in the same breath as, say, Selvaraghavan or Gautham Menon.
