Performance
It's a superb show by Siddharth.
The young actor has proved that
he is versatile enough to handle
tough roles and deliver it with
aplomb. He is cool and casual in
the first half. Bubbly and
charming he is. His romantic
escapades are interesting. Nithya
Menon, with her girl next-door
looks is perfect foil for the role.
Prioya Anand plays her role with
aplomb. Sri Charan as
Siddharth's friend deserves a
mention. Mouli walks away with
aplause for his portrayal. The cast
includes Geetha, Lakshmi
Ramakrishnan, Thanikala Bharani
and Janaki Sabesh.
Analysis
Jayendra starts to leave an
impression with his visual in the
first frame itself. The story or the
narration may be very familiar,
but the catchy dialogues and he
sequence penned by Jayendra
along with writers Subha is
good. The nose for details and
the execution of emotional
scenes especially the thoughts of
a youth all set to face his death
are brought out well. The first
half is racy and interesting while
the latter part drags a bit.
Technicalities
Three cheers Jayendra for
choosing an excellent crew
behind the camera.
Balasubramaniam's camera is the
backbone. The visuals especially
the manner in which he captured
the song Rules Kidayathu is
stunning. The landscapes of Kasi
and then USA are captured well.
Sharreth's music is another
highlight. Sophisticated and
mesmerising are the tunes.
Jayendra and Subha have penned
the story in such a way that there
are no logical lapses.
Box Office Prediction
It is a movie that is rich, suave
and stylish. There are enough
emotional elements in it. But the
fact is that it is too sophisticated
for a common man to identify
himself with the film.

- Siddharth's performance
