Yet another
routine tale of friendship and action this is with Chiyyan Vikram appearing in
the title role. Vikram called Jeeva is also known as Sketch who works in a
garage run by a Settu (Harish Peradi). No marks for guessing that the backdrop
is North Madras that is now Chennai!
Two years
after Vaalu(2015), Vijay Chander has come up with this action flick that
showcases Vikram as Sketch, perhaps on the strength of his ability to scheme up
things! He is well versed in snatches vehicles the EMIs of which have fallen
overdue! Sketch has a special fascination for vehicles and whenever he is out
on a call to rough up some thugs, he either drives a jeep or rides a stylish
looking motor bike!
The plot is
very simple as it happens to be a revenge drama and yet another added attraction
is the manner the film’s hero is worshipped, at times, a little too much!
Surprisingly, a feature that is never present in any of the films of Vikram so
far!
No doubt,
the film’s climax has an interesting twist but the narration otherwise runs on
predictable lines offering nothing new or novel!
The duets
shot on the lead pair offer scope for Thaman, the scorer but he seems to have
taken it all too easy!
Vikram has
done his best but his characterisation could have had more of
depth!
Royapuram Kumar
as the antagonist has done a neat job. The rest of those in the cast too have
done their parts without a blemish!
An
entertainer for the festival season aimed at pleasing the ardent fans of
Chiyaan Vikram!
