I have always been an admirer of the works of Gautham Menon and this time he's fallen short of the line he'd drawn for himself in Tamil cinema industry.
The theme of the movie is very pleasant and simply beautiful in its own way. The lead pair has had a really impressive chemistry between them throughout the movie. Gautham has again proved that he can still step up the stardom of the lead-pair in his movie irrespective of the story. As against their previous movies, Simbu is incredibly handsome and Trisha's gorgeous as well.
The enthralling writer in Gautham is exemplified when Trisha admits that she wants to look at herself through the eyes of Simbu after he lauds her beauty. The first half levitates the expectations of any unbiased audience to the likes of Karthik-Revathy pair in Manirathnam's Mouna Raagam - love best ever showcased in Tamil cinema. But disappointment awaits in the second half - thanks to Gautham's cliché.
The humorous but slow dialogs of cameraman Ganesh is an overdose to the inexplicably stagnant pace of the movie itself. Oscar winner Rahman has proved his might yet again in this movie as his music treats our senses. But as to why foreign dancers crowd the hero in all of Gautham's movies - not one but in 3 songs, remains a mystery..!
The theme fails in its purpose to portray Simbu's true love and Trisha's quandary to accept it in so many instances of the movie. Like when Simbu refuses Trisha's friendship citing he feels like he always wants to make love to her and Trisha's willingness to give into romance whenever Simbu comes close to her - is it the director's misinterpretation of the word "Love" with "Lust"???
The complicated screenplay draws the dislike of majority of audience as people found their way out of the theater even with 20 minutes left in the movie,notably on the day of release (source- I was there too!) The climax is probably the only way Gautham could get himself out of jail as both the possible endings one can think of is there. Not enjoyable though..!
If you are expecting a delightful romantic story without inquietude, back out..! Not if you're biased..!
