A one liner for the movie would go like this: Story line - cliched; Screenplay - Refreshing !!
To put it bluntly, the prejudice I had before entering the Hall expecting the movie to not be anything but mediocre, vanished into thin air...when I came out of the hall....mildly surprised....with a neat screenplay and clear characterisation.....the movie comes out unscatched with the viewer...which in itself...is a great tribute for the debutant director....
Few from the general public would know that this is not a SJ Suryah directed movie...but he pulls his weight purely as an actor in this movie.....real talent, though without the looks... The movie starts with suryah's now familiar pranks..and to be frank.....the first half hour was slightly uncomfortable with cheap dual tone dialogues and scenes. Agreed that Suryah's character is a womanizer..but the scene's take it too far...
Wading through the first half hour....and then you are made to situp with Nayanthara's entry...wow.....the real star or you can call flag bearer of the movie....she moves around the camera with such poise, beauty, freshness...you feel for nayanthara's portrayal in Ghajini..where she was shown in poor light...photographically..I mean..... Any hero would want to act with Nayanthara after seeing this movie....she carries herself..excellently well...the reason for this is her neat characterisation...one is at home with her portrayal...
The story moves around with beautifully picturised and composed songs....credit to Yuvan..who churns out such tunes non-chalantly like his father...not exactly in his father's class though!!! Songs as well are a major plus for the movie.....actually the director has proved that with neat character sketches, screenplay, music and direction, one can get away with such cliched subjects as well....
Overall an enjoyable movie if you are an youngster !!!

the make-up for SJ suryah was akin to whitewash for houses during pongal
Yes..u r spot on...actually, I missed drafting it into my review...like what Ananda Vikatan says in its review..."either Suryah should change the powder he uses or the Make-up man !!!"
sj suryah, the director and finally this blogger everyone are ultimate losers.
