The audience of a movie could reach is determined by the certificate a film gets from the 'Central Board Of Film Certification'. In general, most films get 'U' (unrestricted) , 'U/A' (which requires parental guidance for children below 12 years), and there is the 'A' certified films which are restricted to adults viewership.
There is always a taboo or an extra buzz when a movie gets certified with A, as it becomes restricted to a particular audience based on the age groups. A film with 'A' certificate necessarily need not to be a cheap body show or nudity type contents, but the themes can be bold in terms of violence or adults orientated topics that are not suitable for the minors.
In 2019, surprisingly many films with popular stars were certified 'A' that turned many eyeballs. Here is the list of movies that were classified for only 'Adult' from Kollywood this year.
