Story:

Anand Shankar is the director of the 2018 Indian Tamil-language political thriller film NOTA. Alongside Mehreen Pirzada, Vijay Deverakonda, who is making his Tamil film debut, plays the lead role. Supporting cast members include Sathyaraj, Nassar, Sanchana Natarajan, Karunakaran, Priyadarshi Pullikonda, Yashika Aannand, M. S. Bhaskar, and Rajendran. Vettattam, a novel by Shan Karuppusamy, was the inspiration for the movie, which was produced by K. E. Gnanavel Raja under his production company Studio Green. Shan Karuppusamy also contributed to the screenplay.

The main character of the movie is Varun, a chief minister’s son who succeeds his father in office following accusations of corruption against him. Having no prior political experience, Varun quickly finds himself confined to the chair for an extended period of time.

The musical score and soundtrack are composed by Sam C. S. and the cinematography and editing were handled by Santhana Krishnan Ravichandran and Raymond Derrick Crasta. The film premiered on 5 October 2018 in India[1] and on 4 October 2018 in the United States. The film opened to mixed reviews from critics and was a failure at the box office.

Varun Subramanyam (Vijay Deverakonda) is a video game designer living in the UK. He is the son of Vinodhan Subramanyam, the long-time Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu. Varun visits Chennai for his birthday to be celebrated in the orphanage which he runs and also to see his little half-sister Narmada (Amrutha). Later he goes out partying, but a heavy police convoy nabs him by 1:00 AM and brings him home for a shocking news: Varun is to be sworn in as the new Chief Minister by 5:00 AM to protect the party, as Vinodhan (Nassar) is to be sentenced guilty in a corruption case the next day. Despite his reservations, Varun is sworn in as Chief Minister.
