Interesting choice of title. I hope the film does justice to the depth the name 'Lenin' carries. The Mahabharata reference in the glimpse has me intrigued!

Akhil's intensity in that glimpse gave me chills! After his last performance, I have high hopes for this one. Thaman's music will be the cherry on top 🎶

While the glimpse looks promising, I hope they don't just use Lenin's name for shock value. The philosophical angle needs proper exploration. Respectful criticism - the tagline feels a bit disconnected from the political connotations of the title.

Sree Leela and Akhil look like they'll have amazing chemistry! The glimpse didn't show much of her though. Hope we get to see more soon 🤞
