Lady
superstar Nayanthara who is currently riding high as far as career graph is
concerned, has come up with a powerful portrayal yet again! Needless to
mention, she has scored brilliantly as the protagonist proving beyond doubt that
she is simply capable of carrying an entire film on her shoulders in entirety!
Not to overlook the fact that her character and costumes certainly remind the
viewers of her presence & performance in Naanum Rowdythaan, Nayanthara has
executed herself admirably well despite the fact that her role here somehow
gives an impression that it is an extension of that role he played in that,
sans the stammering!
This film is
certainly a big breakthrough for Yogi Babu who has come up triumphs as Sekar, a
shop owner near her residence, holding the torch for her! Anand playing his
deputy scores well too! So does Anbudasan appearing as Lakshmana Kumar!
Kokila(
Nayanthara) who hails from a middle class family which consists of her dad,
Pandi (R.S.Sivaji), a simpleton, her mom, Vadiva (Saranya Ponvannan) who runs
the family & Shobi (Jacqueline), Kokila’s younger sister!
All hell
breaks down when Vadivu is diagnosed with lung cancer & the cost of cure is
estimated as Rs. 15, 00,000! The family gets into a fix as all of them are well
aware of the fact that it is an impossible situation for them to mobilize such
a sum of money! All her efforts prove futile and that is exactly when Kokila
inadvertently gets involved in the drug peddling! Realizing that it is
lucrative she carries on with the ‘task’ till things go haywire! She gets into
problems not only with the gangs involved but also with the police!
How she
outsmarts them all and moves out with the boot earned and then starts afresh,
of course, the family gets into a small time business that is within the
confines of the law, this time!
Humor
courses the proceedings in abundant measure most of which is enjoyable!
Nayanthara going about sporting an innocent face and uttering words that are
also innocence-laden which after a point tends to irritate! The director’s objective
appears to have been fully focused on uplifting Nayan’s image as a star who can
carry the entire movie fully by herself! Well, Nayan hasn’t disappointed him!
Sivakumar
Vijayan’s camera work & Anirudh’s musical score add pep to the proceedings!
This black
comedy can be construed of champion the cause of women empowerment in one
angle!
