Traditional
Primary
The film critiques systemic corruption but champions a highly individualistic, extra-legal solution where a wealthy protagonist bypasses and subverts the state to deliver social good, emphasizing individual power over systemic reform.
The film features traditional casting consistent with its cultural origin, without any explicit race or gender swaps of roles. Its narrative primarily focuses on themes of corruption and social justice within its setting, rather than offering critiques of traditional identities or explicitly centering DEI themes.
Secondary
The film portrays Hindu cultural practices, temples, and values as an integral and respected part of the protagonist's moral framework and the broader Indian society. It aligns with the virtues of the faith by presenting a righteous hero whose actions are implicitly rooted in traditional ethics.
Muslim characters are depicted as part of the diverse Indian society, often as beneficiaries of Sivaji's philanthropic work. The narrative consistently promotes an inclusive vision of India, affirming the dignity and positive role of Muslim communities within the nation.
Sivaji: The Boss does not include any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes within its storyline. The film's plot centers on social justice and romance, without engaging with queer identities or experiences. Consequently, there is no direct portrayal, positive or negative, of the LGBTQ+ community.
The film's narrative centers on the male protagonist's fight against corruption. Female characters, including the lead heroine, do not participate in or win close-quarters physical combat against male opponents.
Sivaji: The Boss is an original film with characters created specifically for its narrative. There are no pre-existing canonical or historical characters whose gender could have been altered for this production.
Sivaji: The Boss is an original film with characters created specifically for this movie. There is no prior source material, historical basis, or previous installments from which character races could be established and subsequently changed.
