Santhosh is the creative head of a television channel called Teen TV (though it does indulge in political exposés).

However, the director changes track frequently, delving into comedy which is as crisp as yesterday's papadam left on the dining table."[10] *[The Hindu](/source/The_Hindu)* wrote, "An ably fractured screenplay leaves Indira Vizha tottering even before it can take off."[11] *[Deccan Herald](/source/Deccan_Herald)* wrote, "Indira Vizha is neither engaging nor entertaining. This risque and ribald tripe takes audiences on a peek-a-boo(b) show".[12] The New Indian Express wrote, "Rajeshwar in his earlier films had revealed a strong script sense. But here he falters".[13] ## References 1. **[^](#cite_ref-1)** ["Indra Vizha"](https://web.archive.org/web/20080311165002/http://www.tamilnaduentertainment.com/tamil.asp?hotclick=indravizha.txt). *Tamilnadu Entertainment*.
