'''''Thadaiyara Thaakka''''' ({{translation|Breaking all Barriers}}) is a 2012 Indian [[Tamil language|Tamil]]-language [[action thriller film]]<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/tamil/2012/mar/04/arun-vijay-to-pack-a-punch-345823.amp|title=Arun Vijay to pack a punch|website=[[The New Indian Express]]|accessdate=4 March 2012|quote=“Thadaiyara Thaakka is an action thriller. I got completely glued to the script as soon as he narrated it to me,” says Arun.}}</ref> written and directed by [[Magizh Thirumeni]], starring [[Arun Vijay]], [[Mamta Mohandas]] and [[Rakul Preet Singh]]. The title is derived from a devotional song titled ''[[Kanda Shasti Kavasam]]''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-movie-reviews/reviews-2/jun-12-01/thadaiyara-thaakka-review.html|title=THADAYARA THAAKKA MOVIE REVIEW|website=Behindwoods.com|quote=The chaste Tamil title Thadayara Thaakka taken from the famous Kanda Sashti Kavacham appears to give the necessary spunk and fizz to this action-centric film which has combined suspense elements in an interesting way.}}</ref> The film follows a taxi driver who is suspected of attacking a don and goes on the run as the don's brother and the gang start chasing after him.

Director Magizh Thirumeni conceived of the film when he was bedridden with viral fever and took 7 years to develop the story and characters. He initially discussed the title with the director [[Gautham Vasudev Menon]] while working with him as an assistant on ''[[Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu (2006 film)|Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu]]'', but it eventually stayed with him. Once the story was completed, he wanted an actor apt for this kind of action film; a protagonist with the boy next door looks and demeanor. Arun Vijay was chosen for the role after being introduced to Thirumeni by a mutual friend. Similarly, he narrated the script to Mamta Mohandas, who agreed to act in the film. With ''Thadaiyara Thaakka'', he introduced [[Telugu cinema|Telugu film]] actor [[Vamsi Krishna]] and debutante Maha Gandhi as antagonists. The cinematography was handled by [[M. Sukumar]], while [[Praveen K. L.]] and [[N. B. Srikanth]] jointly edited the film. The music was composed by [[S. Thaman]], while [[Madhan Karky]] wrote the lyrics. Thirumeni was impressed with [[Anal Arasu]]'s stunts and called them the film's major highlight.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.behindwoods.com/new-videos/videos-q1-09/director-interview/magizh-thirumeni.html|title=MAGIZH THIRUMENI INTERVIEW|website=Behindwoods.com}}</ref> The film was shot in and around [[Chennai]], and Arun Vijay performed the stunts by himself.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-movie-previews/preview-1/may-12-05/thadaiyara-thaakka-movie-preview.html|title=THADAIYARA THAAKKA MOVIE PREVIEW|website=Behindwoods.com|quote=Shot in and around Chennai, Thadaiyara Thaakka is touted to be an action film with risky action sequences performed by Arun Vijay himself.

The film was released theatrically on 1 June 2012, receiving critical acclaim for its action sequences, technical aspects and screenplay.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.moviecrow.com/movie/583/thadaiyara-thaakka-tamil-movie-review/review|title=Thadaiyara Thaakka Tamil Movie - Critic Review|website=Moviecrow.com}}</ref> However, it [[Box office bomb|underperformed at the box office]], which Thirumeni attributed to the low-key promotions and publicity.

==Plot==
Selva ([[Arun Vijay]]), is a self-built man who owns a small travel agency in Chennai. He works hard and is honest, and dreams of making it big in life. He is all set to marry his lover Priya ([[Mamta Mohandas]]). The city is under the grip of dreaded baddies Maha (Maha Gandhi), and his brother Kumar ([[Vamsi Krishna]]). They are loan sharks who go to any extent to wield their clout in the city. During a rainy night, Selva comes across a drunk Maha, and within minutes, Maha is killed in mysterious circumstances. The blame falls on Selva. Kumar and his men want to bump off Selva. A perplexed Selva runs for cover. He sets out to find the real killer, but there is a twist in the tale.

Maha had abducted Gayathri Ramakrishnan ([[Rakul Preet Singh]]), the only daughter of a very rich Businessman based in Delhi. He has been using her solely as his personal sex slave for nine months, revolting on the thought that even the richest and most powerful men in the country can't touch her. One rainy night, Gayathri escapes captivity and comes across the intoxicated and defenseless Maha sitting on the road. She uses the chance to exert revenge and kills him. She discreetly places the murder weapon in Selva's car, and Selva is thus framed. Selva's two friends are taken captive and killed off brutally by Kumar. Selva's two cars and office are also destroyed by Kumar's men, and Priya's family escapes the city to save themselves.

With his entire life turned around by a crime he did not commit, Selva takes a new avatar as he decides to wage a bloody war with the baddies. Finally, he kills Kumar and the eight main members of his gang. To dispose of the bodies, he uses a meat grinder overnight and fees the flesh to pigs in a sty. Though Selva and Priya take care of Gayathri, she comes to know that she is pregnant from Maha's rape. At the same time, Selva's gang comes to know of Gayathri's origins from the TV news. Unfortunately, Gayathri commits suicide, and the film ends.

Generally, Gautham Menon will ask his assistant directors for titles for his scripts, and I had suggested this then. Gautham, too, liked this, but somehow we could not use it then. However, this title stayed with me for a long time, and when I had readied the script, I felt this suited the script very well"<ref name="behindwoods1">{{cite web|url=http://www.behindwoods.com/new-videos/videos-q1-09/director-interview/magizh-thirumeni.html |title=Magizh Thirumeni - Tamil Cinema Actor Interview - Thadaiyara Thaakka | Arun Vijay | Mamta Mohandas | Magizh Thirumeni | Thaman |publisher=Behindwoods.com |accessdate=18 August 2012}}</ref> and about the story idea he further added that: "The idea was conceived once when I was bedridden with viral fever.
