Story: A double role treat, the story is about two brothers.
Siva (jiiva) the elder one is honest, sincere and he sells fish in the market.
Ashok (jiiva again) is the younger one who is an advocate and is pampered a lot
by his parents (ponvannan, kuyili). Ashok is also a big womanizer and he keeps
chasing girls with his friend Bujji Babu (santhanam). Then there is Swetha
(divya) who is in love with Siva. The story takes a turn when Ashok plays with a
girl Gayathri (soundarya) and she eventually dies. Siva knows it is Ashok's
fault and approaches the court. However, he fails to prove Ashok's fault. What
happens from there forms the rest of the story.

Presentation: The director has
come up with an appealing storyline and while the presentation was good, the
narrative was disappointing. The dialogues were okay, the script had few jerks
and the screenplay was hardly effective as it dragged in many places. Background
score was alright but songs were disappointing. Cinematography was the saving
grace. Editing was required at many places. Costumes were trendy while the art
department made its presence felt. Jiiva has come up with a good performance in
the double role and has showed the variations very well. Divya Spandana looks
deliciously sensuous, Soundarya was just okay, Santhanam tried to bring few
smiles, Ponvannan was regular while Kuyili was natural.

Conclusion: The film reminds
many of previous Kollywood movies which had the hero doing dual roles. While the
concept is nice, the film was unable to get the audience attention at all
places. The first half was breezy and had its share of romance, fights, comedy.
But it is the second half that goes haywire with lengthy scenes, unwanted songs
and amateur comedy. Overall, the film is okay in parts but it may fail to appeal
to the audience in a large way. At the box office, the openings will be good due
to star power but chances of success are minimal. Bharatstudent Verdict: Could have been better |
