Thoonga Nagaram (Tamil: தூங்கா நகரம்; English: The city never sleeps) is a 2011 Indian Tamil-language drama-thriller film written and directed by debutant Gaurav Narayanan, starring himself along with Vimal, Bharani, Nishanth and Anjali in the lead roles. The film, produced by Dhayanidhi Alagiri's Cloud Nine Movies, was shot entirely in Madurai, the city where the story takes place and which the title refers to. It was released on 4 February 2011 to relatively positive reviews and excellent box office collection .
A group of four friends (Vimal, Barani, Nishanth and Gaurav Narayanan) live lives in their own way in Madurai. They are callous youth, who go hammer and tongs to make both ends meet. Vimal, a wedding videographer comes across his childhood friend Anjali, who is a compere in a local cable TV channel and love blossoms.
However, one event changes the course of their life. Vimal bashes a youth for taking obscene video clippings of a girl and blackmailing her with ulterior motive. The youth’s father (Kamala theatre owner Raju) finds out the men behind the attack on his son.
He hatches a conspiracy and ensures that the friends themselves turn foes for each other. In the meantime, it’s time for Vimal to tie the knot with Anjali. Did the baddie succeed in his mission is the crux of the story.
