2018, Tamil, Zee5, 7.3/10 IMDB, Directed by Nelson Dilipkumar
Nayana at the helm, much hyped anirudh musical, directed by Vijay TV’s Kalakka poovadhu yaru (KPY) director Nelson. The biggest worry is the unjustified plot to start with.
Taking the liberty to give spoilers ahead as its no way going to spoil any unseen suspense for a movie goer. Lower income family, security guard dad, college going Sis (Jacqueline of KPY team anchor), mom diagnosed with Lung cancer, Nayan to get 15k for treatment, tries all means ends up drug trafficking🙄 Wonder why the director didn’t think of the super speciality care at government hospital or cancer institute or at the least CM scheme card to help with free treatment, GOK (god only knows😡)
Since the plot is at the weakest, you end up waiting for some kind of justification till the last frame but in vain. No expenses other than Nayan’s payment for the production team as all you need is a poorly lit gangster back drop and few dirty fellows and no role for a costume designer whatsoever🤣
Yogi babu is the hero of the movie and kudos to him for trying to save the movie with his love for nayan. anirudh’s 8million++ views of the shivakarthikeyan lyrical, ‘Kalyana Vayasu’ song has brought in the youth to the theater betting on the super stardom of nayan after an effective ‘ARAM’. When a Yogi babu kinda person proposes a Nayan kinda girl, one can’t help not to think of Swathi’s plight. But after a while you get annoyingly used to as nayan gets into many more troubles knowingly 🤐..
A girl putting herself in great risks of selling cocaine, killing hit men with the help of her family, escaping police arrest, would have been better off if Nayan’s characterisation was spun more with oomph factor rather than black comedy.
It worked with drishyam, it worked with naanum rowdy thaan. Nayan’s body language of naanum rowdy thaan mixed with her bold looks from ARAM confuses to what she is with a star in her eyes in KK.
Another grave mistake on the part of director is making Saranya ponvannan a cancer patient, instead her hubby could have had cancer so she could have contributed more with yogi babu to the comical relief which could have saved the movie😤. Few laughs not worthy enough for a 2 1/2 hour movie😣
