Here are some recent thriller Tamil movie releases:
Many Tamil thrillers embed a social message without sacrificing tension. Viduthalai Part 1 (2023) uses a police-manhunt framework to examine state repression. Jai Bhim (2021) is a legal thriller exposing caste atrocities. Maanagaram (2017) shows how a single day's events tie together disparate strangers in a chaotic city.
