Story, Screenplay, Dialogue, Direction: Suraj
Cinematography: Saravanan
Music: Devi Sri Prasad
Production:Studio Green – K E Gnanavel Raja
Alex Pandian, this film has a stunning start with a train chase sequence. The story begins as Karthi saving Anushka from a group of thugs. The fight sequences have been shot brilliantly. Immediately after the fight sequence, story revolves around Santhanam’s family with his mother and three sisters.
Suraj joins with a hit combination of Karthi and Santhanam in this film. Unlike their previous films, Karthi and Santhanam are opposite in Alex Pandian as the hero flirts all three sisters of Santhanam. Santhanam has again proved himself and the scenes where he protects his sisters from Karthi are comical. Three sisters, Nikita Thukral, Sanusha and Akanksha Puri have performed well.
Director Suraj’s previous films were full of comedy, but the ratio is less in this film. The first half of the story is of full comedy and the second half only shows the identity of Karthi and Anushka. Anushka plays the role of Chief Minister’s daughter. Villians of the movie are Alvin Martin (Milind Soman) and Dr. GKM (Sumanth). They wanted a deal to be signed by the Chief Minister. As they were refused by the CM, they order Karthi to abduct Anushka and the rest to be followed on screens.
There is not very much scope of Anushka, but she has rendered a brilliant performance needed for the film. Karthi performs great stunts and the sequences with Santhanam are the main scope for the film which worked out quite well.
Inspite of very good publicity and expectations, this film turned out be an average as it has old content.
