The Pradeep Ranganathan starrer Dragon has finally premiered on Netflix today, March 21. Directed by Ashwath Marimuthu, the film stands out for its engaging and entertaining storyline. It follows Ragavan, an engineering student who uses deception to succeed but later faces the consequences of his actions.

Following Dragon's digital debut, its title reveal has impressed many with its clever execution. Ashwath Marimuthu’s direction has been praised for seamlessly blending humor and emotions. Leon James’ music enhances the film’s mood and Pradeep Ranganathan’s performance has drawn comparisons to a young Dhanush, with audiences appreciating his natural screen presence.

Anupama Parameswaran shines as Keerthi, Ragavan’s love interest, while Palak Lalwani delivers a strong performance in a key supporting role. Mysskin’s portrayal of the college principal adds depth to the film, with his interactions with Pradeep ranking among the most memorable moments. George Maryan has also received appreciation for his heartfelt performance as Ragavan’s father. 

Gautham Menon and K. S. Ravikumar make notable contributions in their roles, while Harshath Khan, as ‘Kutty Dragon,’ brings humor with his comic timing. VJ Siddhu’s portrayal of Ragavan’s friend Anbu has  been well received, and Ivana’s cameo fits seamlessly into the story. Director Ashwath Marimuthu also makes a special appearance.

Some viewers felt the film’s 2-hour-35-minute runtime was slightly long and that a few scenes required suspension of disbelief. However, Dragon has been widely appreciated as a complete entertainer. Many have credited Ashwath Marimuthu, Archana Kalpathi, and AGS Productions for delivering a successful film.
