Quick Glance
What’s great?
Arvind Swami gets an interesting role to play and he keeps it neat and clean.
Amala Paul looks great and performs well.
Master Raghavan and Baby Nainika are the show stoppers and they have given an amazing performance.
Comedy scenes worked well.
What’s not?
Week Subplot.
Logical loopholes.
Fight scenes looks intolerant.
The Cast
Arvind Swami gets to be seen in an interesting role and he does it neat. Amala Paul’s character looks confused at times but she looks beautiful and performs well.
The two kids Master Raghavan and Baby Nainika looked perfect for the script and both have performed well.
Soori, Robo Shankar, and Ramesh Kanna gives us some relief with their comedy. Aftab Shivdasani role looks unconvincing but he has performed his role well.
The Team
Technically this film wasn’t very good. Music by Amresh Ganesh is an average and it could have been better. The fight scenes looked like it was added forcibly. CGI works at places looked poor. There are logical loops in the script which could have taken care when it comes to a remake.
