Joot (Tamil: ஜுட்) is a 2004 Tamil action film directed by Azhagam Perumal, starring Srikanth and Meera Jasmine The music is by Vidyasagar.
From a small rural village, Easwaran (Srikanth) heads to the bigger city of Chennai with his father (Murali) seeking medicine to treat an illness. While in town, they live at the home of Eashwaran's brother (Shyam Ganesh), who's caught up in a dangerous web of corruption involving a thug named Aditya (FEFSI Vijayan). As Aditya continues to head dirty deals with local officials, Eashwaran is in over his head and may need his brother's help.
Music is composed by Vidyasagar.
Sify wrote "The story of Joot is as stale as yesterday?s bread as the plot is clich?d and seen in umpteen mass films in the same genre. The first half when the hero comes to the city from a village and gets into a fight with local goons for no fault of his, reminds you of Dhool." Balaji B wrote "Azhagamperumal too takes the masala route with Joot after Dum Dum Dum, his first movie. But one wishes he hadn't followed Lingusamy this closely. Joot is little more than a rehash of Run(with a little bit of Dhool thrown in) without the handling that made the original a first-class entertainer."
