Jigarthanda (transl. Cold hearted) is a 2014 Indian Tamil-language crime film written and directed by Karthik Subbaraj, and produced by S. Kathiresan of Group Company.

Partially inspired by the Korean-language film A Dirty Carnival (2006),[5][6] Jigarthanda revolves around Karthik (Siddharth) an aspring filmmaker, gets a chance to make a film based on gangsterism, in order to impress a highbrow film director, who critiqued his earlier attempts.

Released on 1 August 2014,[8] Jigarthanda received critical acclaim from critics and audiences, who praised Subbaraj's writing and direction, the performances of the cast, particularly that of Bobby Simha, and other technical aspects: including cinematography, music, editing.[9] In addition to being a profitable venture for the exhibitors upon its theatrical run,[9] the film was further deemed as one of the most technically brilliant films in Tamil cinema.[10]
