What’s Hot
- Naveen Chandra and debutant Salony Luthra together form an invincible lead pair with Naveen’s bursts of frustration and anger looking uninhibited and spontaneous while Salony’s show of two extremes – a meek victim and a conniving conspirator is simply so refreshing to experience.
- An impressive story by newcomer Arun Mohan is studded with brilliances at quite a few places that create genuinely surprising twists throughout the duration of the movie including to the climax. The conscious choice to avoid unwanted songs needs to be recognized as it pays rich dividends by ensuring the pace of the movie is not hampered.
- The lens man Krishnan Vasanth works magic on screen to showcase his talent at filming shots set in the night. A song pictured on Naveen when he is drugged by his adversary, has some wow moments created with stunning visuals and some nifty editing from Leo John Paul.
- The overall movie watching experience gets a boost with Britto Michael’s uplifting background score and some witty and crisp dialogues penned by the director. The songs featured are blended with the on screen action which allows them to be enjoyed and be appreciated better by the audience.
What’s Not
- The choice of Naren to play the millionaire Chandrasekaran does not seem to work as his diction and style do not complement the affluent lifestyle one associates with the character. A more convincing and merciless personality would have added some additional bite to the characterization.
- One gets a feeling of overdose of artificial lighting throughout the movie. There are scenes set in the day within office spaces which reflect a strange blue hue that we often associate with clubs in the night. Rather disturbing reflections of bright red lights are observed at many places. Though the technical excellence to film shots in such lights is visible, the overdose is something that borders on annoying.
