Pulipaarvai (lit. 'Sight of a Tiger')^[1] is a 2014 Indian Tamil-language film directed by Praveen Gandhi who also co-produced, composed and wrote all the songs and handled editing and art respectively. It is based on the real life of Balachandran Prabhakaran, the youngest son of the LTTE leader Velupillai Prabhakaran, who is widely believed to have been executed after he surrendered to the Sri Lankan Army during the final stages of the Sri Lankan Civil War. Gandhi's inspiration to make the movie came after seeing documentaries about Balachandran's execution on Channel 4 and BBC.^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5]
