Gowri soon comes out and what happens after that forms the rest of the story.

Presentation:

The director has constructed a special plot in this and though the presentation was alright, the narrative faltered at few points. The dialogues were not upto the mark, the script was having few elements of doubt and the screenplay was just average. Music did its bit without any effect but the camera was effective. The pace of the movie was maintained but then there was nothing captivating for the audience to feel the difference. Suresh Gopi was not the right choice since he looked too suave for the role, Sindhu Menon was brief and had no real scope, Rithya needs to work more on her expressions and acting, Nedumudi Venu was regular, Sreejith was not that impacting, the real show stealer was Meena Ganesh who did a perfect job. Baby Diya was dumb, the others need no mention here as their contribution was negiligible.

Conclusion:

The film takes off on a good mode with the action episode and the eventual love angle that blooms in but later on as the second half arrives, it becomes more of a melodrama and sentimental treat than some convincing family tale. The performances looked plastic which diluted the momentum and made things stale. However, the climax was worth a watch and the impact was resounding which scored few points for the movie. Technically, it is a poor product but the commercial angles may just work in its favor.
