What’s Hot
- Bala Saravanan and Karunas hog the limelight with their sarcastic humour. Bala has picked up pretty well in recent movies and his slang while mouthing dialogues has its own perks to up the humor quotient. With Karunas for company donning a constantly eccentric behaviour, the audience are treated well with bolts of comic scenes.
- G V Prakash has shown his melodious traits once again with a fair share of soul stirring love songs topped with some peppy numbers and energetic background scores to present an enjoyable audio experience. At least a couple of songs – “Vandha Mala…” and “Sattena Idi Mazhai…” are guaranteed to garner your subconscious involvement!
- Nikki Galrani makes her debut in Tamil as Nisha, the lead lady and this will be quite a memorable debut. Be it her cute looks or her adorable expressions in the face of love or her emotions when helpless or her taunting expressions under grotesque makeup when possessed by a ghost, she makes an impression which is hard to ignore.
What’s Not
- The initial plot used to kick start the movie is so morbid since it advocates Suicide as ‘the’ solution for all troubles. Though suicides are technically legal now, such ignorance could undermine the efforts put in all these years to reduce suicides amongst youth over trivial issues.
- G V Prakash in his debut as an actor looks totally out of sorts like a sheep in a horse stable! To be fair on him, this was not such a great role to start off your acting career with. The character of Kathir lacks any convincing personality trait to be focussed upon as the protagonist and his looks/styling doesn’t make it any better. If we blame it on nerves, then the director has missed a trick by not extracting the best out of him.
- The screenplay is a definite dampener on the movie with lack of any arguably riveting episodes or game changing moments. The few mysteries in the first half are dissolved early in the second half which is replaced by repetitive encounters with the supernatural force and typically predictable comic reactions out of fear.
