Primary
The film critiques political corruption and champions a solution centered on individual integrity and decisive, ethical leadership within the existing democratic framework. Its focus on universal good governance rather than specific ideological tenets places it in the neutral category.

Its narrative focuses on political corruption and good governance, without critically portraying traditional identities or explicitly centering on DEI themes.
Secondary
The film's protagonist, Pugazh, embodies strong moral values and integrity, presented within a culturally Hindu framework. The narrative implicitly affirms traditional virtues and ethical conduct, with no negative portrayal of Hindu practices or adherents. The film's message of justice and good governance aligns with dharmic principles, positioning the faith's cultural context positively.
