Actress Mamitha Baiju, who faced heavy trolling for her role in Jana Nayagan, has earned widespread praise for her performance in Vishwanath and Sons. The film, starring Suriya and directed by Venky Atluri, was released on August 14 and has received mixed reviews from critics but is performing well at the box office. Many viewers now say Mamitha delivered her career-best performance and carried the film alongside Suriya. Mamitha debuted in Kollywood with the 2024 film Rebel, which was a disaster. She made a comeback with Dude, then appeared in Dhanush's Kara and Jana Nayagan. In Jana Nayagan, a remake of Bhagavanth Kesari, she was trolled for her acting and compared unfavourably to Sreeleela. Critics said she did not suit the role. Now, with Vishwanath and Sons, she has won over audiences who praise her expressive performance as the best among current-gen actresses.
