Plot

Lingesan is a bodybuilder from

Mr. India
. He wins the title of Mr. Tamil Nadu, which gives him direct entry to the Mr. India pageant. He has a crush on Diya, a leading supermodel. Diya is soon blacklisted, with all her advertisement film contracts cancelled by John, her co-star in all her advertisements, after she constantly rejected his sexual advances. To save her career, Diya decides to replace John with Lingesan, whom she had earlier met at one of her shoots, as her co-star for her next advertisement. The shooting is to take place in China at the same time when the Mr. India pageant is to take place, but Lingesan agrees, sacrificing his Mr. India ambitions in the process.

Lingesan is given a makeover by Diya's stylist, a transgender woman Osma. The shoot initially does not go well as Lingesan is shy and awkward around Diya. On her director's advice, Diya pretends to fall in love with Lingesan so that he would loosen up and perform better during the shoot. The plan proves successful but Diya soon tells Lingesan the truth. Hurt, he focuses on modelling instead of her. They both gradually excel in the modelling industry as the lead pair. As time passes, Diya reciprocates Lingesan's love for her and they soon get engaged.

In his journey from a bodybuilder to a top model, Lingesan became a rich and influential model. But Lingesan got many enemies, including John, whose modelling career was ruined due to Lingesan's rising popularity, forcing him to appear in local advertisements to stay afloat; Osma, who feels love for Lingesan and revealed her feelings to him, only to be rejected; advertisement company owner Indrakumar, whose company suffered losses when Lingesan refused to endorse their soft drink as it was reported to contain pesticides; and another bodybuilder Ravi, who also competed for the Mr. Tamil Nadu title but lost to Lingesan despite pressurizing the latter to withdraw. These four people conspire to take revenge on Lingesan and destroy his fame and modelling career.

Two days before his wedding, Lingesan slowly starts to experience hair and teeth loss and a skin disorder. He consults his friend Vasudevan, a doctor who is also the guardian of Diya's family. Vasudevan claims that he is suffering from a rare and incurable genetic disease that results in premature ageing. Lingesan's condition worsens, with his face and body deforming, and eventually, he becomes a hunchback. In his current condition, Lingesan decides to disappear from the public eye and also from Diya's life by faking his death in a car accident. Only his friend Babu and Vasudevan know that he is alive. Nobody is ready to marry Diya due to her past with Lingesan. Lingesan asks Vasudevan to marry Diya as he is the only person who will be able to understand Diya's past and present situation. Vasudevan agrees and the wedding is fixed.

On the eve of Diya's wedding, another doctor named Thiruvengadam reveals to Lingesan that, contrary to Vasudevan's claims, he is actually suffering from H4N2 influenza, caused by the "I" virus, which can only be transmitted by injection. Lingesan discovers that John, Osma, Indrakumar, Ravi and, to his horror, even Vasudevan, are responsible for injecting the virus into his body. Vasudevan lusted for Diya since she was 10 years old and was enraged when she chose Lingesan over him. So, he sided with Lingesan's enemies and planned the entire operation to have Lingesan injected with the virus. Lingesan is then beaten up by them and tied up, but manages to escape later. Enraged and betrayed, Lingesan abducts Diya on the wedding day and keeps her safely in an old house without revealing his identity to her.

Aided by Babu, Lingesan decides to take revenge on those who had deformed him by disfiguring them without killing them. He first immolates Ravi, who suffers severe burns. He then prepares a paste which he mixes with Osma's daily cosmetic products and unbeknownst to her she applies it on her body, causing her body to have Hypertrichosis. Next, he douses Indrakumar with sugar syrup which causes a swarm of bees to sting him all over his body. He lures John to fight over a moving train and gets him electrocuted. Finally, he gets Vasudevan to unwittingly inject "I" virus into himself five times through a dog-bite (as he swapped the antidote with the virus), causing his whole body to swell up. After achieving his revenge, Lingesan reveals his condition to Diya, who, though initially taken aback, still loves him despite his deformity. They decide to live a secluded life together. Lingesan undergoes stem cell treatment, blood transfusion, yoga and physiotherapy for his condition and gradually returns to normal.

Cameo appearances

Production

Origin

In an interview with the Tamil channel

Sivaji (2007) and Enthiran (2010). The third script narrated by Shankar was centered on an aspiring bodybuilder who would later turn into a deformed hunchback following a freak accident. Rajinikanth was sceptical of it and refused it.[15][a] Following the release of Nanban (2012), Shankar revived the project with Vikram in the lead, his second collaboration with the actor after Anniyan
(2005).

Development

Shankar collaborated with writer-duo

beast get-up in the film and additional prosthetic makeup was done by Christien Tinsley and Dominie Till.[23][24] Gavin Miguel and Mary E. Vogt were in charge of the costume designing of the film's cast.[25]

The film was earlier reported to be titled as either Thendral or Therdal, while Azhagan and Aanazhagan were also used as alternate titles that Shankar had kept in mind. Since they were already used in the Tamil films released during 1991 and 1995, Shankar decided that a single alphabet would be the film's title.[26] In mid-2012, the team confirmed that the project would be titled I.[27][28] According to The Times of India, Shankar opted for the title I as he thought it "explains all the characteristics of the protagonist"; the word has a variety of meanings, which include "king, beauty, astonishment, guru, vulnerability, owner and arrow".[29][30] The film's title got the name, as in the film, Lingesan (Vikram's character) was deformed due to H4N2 Influenza caused by the "I" virus that had transmitted due to an injection.[31]

In September 2014, producer and distributor V. Ravichandran, stated the project would cost about ₹220 crore (US$28 million),[32] however by October 2014, he and director Shankar was widely quoted as stating the budget would be less than ₹100 crore (US$13 million).[33][34]

Casting

In April 2012, Vikram was selected to feature in the lead role.[35] Priyanka Chopra was initially reported to be in talks for the female lead.[36] Later, Asin's name was suggested along with Chopra.[37] It was reported that Deepika Padukone was also approached,[38] but she denied her involvement in the film.[38] Model-turned-actress Evelyn Sharma eventually selected for the female lead, by an audition, but had opted out due to language reasons.[39] She claimed this in an interview, more than a week after the film's release.[40][41] Samantha Ruth Prabhu was then signed on, but she had opted out of the project citing scheduling conflicts.[42] The role finally went to Amy Jackson, who was paid ₹7.5 million (US$94,000) for acting in the film.[43] Raveena Ravi dubbed the voice for her role. Santhanam, Upen Patel, Srinivasan[44] and Suresh Gopi were selected to play the principal supporting characters in the film.[45] Ramkumar Ganesan, a leading film producer and the elder son of the late-Tamil thespian Sivaji Ganesan, was also added to the cast to play a pivotal role in the film.[46] Jiiva was considered for portraying the antagonist, but was unable to accept the offer due to his prior commitments.[47] Hollywood actor Arnold Schwarzenegger was reported to play an award presenter for a brief scene. Ravichandran, however, denied the news, but said that he would appear in the audio launch of the film. To prepare for his role in I, Vikram took some weight loss and gain tips from Arnold as well.[48] Make-up artiste Ojas M. Rajani, who previously worked with Shankar in Anniyan, was reported to play the role of a transgender make-up artiste in the film in addition to being the make-up artiste for Amy Jackson.[49][50] Mr. Asia contest participant Syed Siddiq appeared in the action sequences featuring Vikram.[51]

Characterisation

In the film,

Weta.[53] Amy Jackson plays a model in the film. On casting and re-defining her looks Shankar was quoted saying, "I wanted someone who could authentically look like a model and then fixed Amy Jackson".[9] Vikram also went bald for the film to change his looks in the film easier.[54] Santhanam was also asked to lose some weight for his character.[55] Peter Ming used actual cyclists in China for a cycle fight scene that was shot there.[56]

Filming

Li river in Guilin.[61] The canned footage of the track was put on hold by the Chinese film processing studio for a year, due to settlement disputes with the producer.[62]

Berhampur.[70] On 24 September 2014, Jackson confirmed that the shooting of the film was completed.[71]

Post-production

By October 2013, Shankar had almost spent more than ₹60 crore (US$7.5 million) for the shooting and post-production, that include extensive visual effects work.[62] Due to the budget constraints, V. Ravichandran had tightened the cost of the film, which led to several complications regarding its production.[62] In February 2014, Vikram started dubbing for the first half of the film,[72] and had completed within March 2014.[73] On 3 April 2014, film critic and journalist Sreedhar Pillai stated that the film's trailer was in stages of editing.[74] Patchwork and dubbing for the film was completed on 11 September 2014.[68] The visual effects work began during mid-January 2014 and processed for more than 9 months, according to VFX supervisor Srinivas Mohan.[75]

Music

A. R. Rahman composed the soundtrack album and background score for the film.[76] The music of the Tamil version was launched at the Nehru Indoor Stadium in Chennai on 12 September 2014.[77][78] Arnold Schwarzenegger, who was the inspiration of the character Lingesan, was invited as chief guest.[79] The dubbed Hindi and Telugu versions of the soundtrack album were released on 31 December 2014.

Marketing

The first look title poster of the film was unveiled on 15 July 2012.

Twitch Film labelling them as "out of this world".[85] The producer screened a sneak preview of the teaser and the song "Ennodu Nee Irundhaal" for the critics in late August 2014. The teaser carried a dummy music score that was not composed by A. R. Rahman.[86]

The complete teaser trailer of the film was leaked on the internet on 2 September 2014. Although the leaked teaser lacked decipherability, the person who had leaked the teaser openly informed the team about it and challenged them to take action against him. After further inquiries, it was revealed that the culprit broke into producer Ravichandran's office during the night and had copied the teaser. However, Ravichandran refused to make changes to the leaked teaser, and planned to release it as per the original schedule.[87]

The teaser was unveiled at the audio launch of the film.

IBNLive wrote, "When we heard that Tamil filmmaker Shankar was making a new film, we fully expected it to be larger-than-life, with a funky storyline and starring popular actors. But what we didn't expect was that feeling of thrill and intrigue", asserting that "Vikram and Shankar have us hooked with the teaser".[90] Nivedita Mishra of the Hindustan Times elaborated in her teaser review, "Without doubt, the film's special effects are great by any standards. Now, whether or not, they have been indigenously put together or have been outsourced from the West, the producers alone will know, but just the desire to make a film that gets its production value right yet doesn't overdo it, is good enough. Here's hoping it will ignite a desire among Indians to go for the skies." and praised the spectacular landscapes, edgy camera angles, action sequences before concluding that "Shankar has put in a lot of effort to make this magnum opus worth a watch if teasers are to go by."[91] Behindwoods wrote, "Anyone who sees this remarkably impactful teaser would keep rewinding what he / she saw, to relive the experience over and over again."[86] The teaser crossed 1 million views in just 12 hours of its release, making it the first Indian film to do so, beating the record set by the teaser of Bang Bang! (2014), which crossed 1 million views in 13 hours.[92] It reached 7 million views in 2 weeks after its release, becoming the only Tamil film to cross the mark till date.[93]

The making video of the film was released on 31 October 2014.

Critical response

I received mostly positive reviews from critics with praise for Shankar's direction, the performances (especially Vikram, Suresh Gopi and Amy Jackson), the technical aspects of the film (especially the visual effects, cinematography, costume design and makeup), and A.R. Rahman's soundtrack and background score, though the length, pace and editing received some criticism.[130]

On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes the movie has an approval score of 56% on the basis of 9 reviews with an average rating of 5.7 out of 10.

Rediff gave 3.5 stars out of 5 and wrote, "The narrative lacks the pace; we usually associate with a Shankar's film. But he does tell a beautiful tale of love sullied by jealousies, greed and anger. The intriguing screenplay as the director alternates between the light-hearted past and the thrilling present keeps you engrossed".[139] Behindwoods.com rated the film 3 out of 5 and stated, "though the story is predictable beyond a point, it's an amalgamation of 'Masters' at play which works to a larger extent because of their huge efforts".[140] India Today rated the film 3 out of and wrote "It's not everyday you will get to watch a visually rich movie like this".[141]

The Hindustan Times, rated the film two and a half stars, stating that Vikram's performance was the film's "only high point"; he noted that the film had similarities to the novel The Hunchback of Notre-Dame (1831) and the fairy tale Beauty and the Beast (1756), "without infusing any novelty into these age-old yarns."[147] Deepanjana Pal from Firstpost wrote, "I is too long, too stupid and too regressive to be entertaining" and also called it "superficial and the least fun Shankar film ever".[148]
