Lord Brahma gets into an argument with Sage Narada about the influence of time in determining fate and seeks the intervention of Lord Shiva to settle their differences. Shiva picks a random person on earth named Tamil to describe on a given day how his life could take dramatic turns to the better or worse depending on the time he starts carrying out his activities. The rest of the story is constructed by the manner in which Tamil and his friends handle similar situations in contrasting ways to alter the course of his life.

What’s Hot
- Chimbu Deven is back again with his favourite genre, a fantasy comedy. He proves he is the best amongst contemporaries at this by making a fantasy movie out of a common man’s lament – What if I could have done this a little earlier or later? The story and concept is definitely refreshing among the lot of predictable movies vying for recognition.
- Arulnidhi as Tamil, has made a conscious effort to improve his dialogue delivery which has worked to his advantage. His sidekicks essayed by ‘Bugs’ Bagavathy Perumal and Bindhu Madhavi have equal importance in the script with Bagavathy portraying a clumsy friend yet again and Bindhu sporting a lively tomboyish character.
- Comedy is the essence of Chimbu Deven’s movies and this one has done exceptionally well in keeping the audience merry, thanks to the brilliant dialogues and one liners. The colloquial interactions, even within the divine fraternity are conceived well and prove to be major stress busters.
- With a handful of chase sequences to lend life to, Natarajan Sankaran has churned out breezy background scores. The team is alert to the fact that the script does not require dream songs and have blended them into the visuals with “July Madham”, a duet song but picturised during a chasing sequence!
What’s Not
- In spite of a strong support cast and credible characterization for each, the versatile actor in Nasser is neglected by making him a shadowy spoof of popular musician Bappi Lahiri’s appearance. Though intended to be humorous, it seems mildly offensive to the musician as well as the acting capabilities of Nasser.
- The screenplay requires a set of events to be re-presented at various phases of the movie. Considering this unique requirement, there is one too many unimportant characters discussed in the movie and relentlessly showcased as well in every replay.
