Dhanush has called Karthik Subbaraj's new film Dorothy a masterpiece, singling out Ilaiyaraaja's score, as the Keerthy Suresh starrer opens in theatres following a warm reception at Toronto.

Dorothy hit theatres on September 25, and early Twitter reactions are split between praise for Karthik Subbaraj's restrained direction and confusion over the film's actual plot, which isn't the queer romance many expected.

Karthik Subbaraj's Dorothy, starring Keerthy Suresh and Rishikanth, heads into its September 25 release with Ilaiyaraaja's music drawing crowds and the team out meeting fans in Pollachi, according to Filmibeat Tamil.

Keerthy Suresh was filmed greeting fans at a London airport a day after Tamil Nadu chief minister Vijay's trip abroad, sending social media into speculation mode even as fans dismissed any connection.

Karthik Subbaraj's Dorothy, starring Keerthy Suresh with music by Ilaiyaraaja, reportedly drew a standing ovation at its Toronto International Film Festival premiere, according to filmmaker Seenu Ramasamy.

Karthik Subbaraj's Dorothy premiered at TIFF 2026 to a standing ovation, the first Tamil film to screen there in ten years. It stars Keerthy Suresh and hits cinemas September 25.
