DRAMA
Starring Arjun, Abhirami, Prakashraj
Directed
by Manojkumar
The movie deals around three central characters Arjun, Abhirami and Prakash Raj, all of them aspiring to get into civil services. They all meet in a train as they head for training. As expected, Arjun and Abhirami falls in love with each other. But Prakash Raj too has his eyes on Abhirami, but furious to know that she loves Arjun and not him. Thus Arjun becomes a major rival to Prakash in all ways.
Though both Arjun and Ahbirami easily makes it as IAS, Prakash Raj loses out to them and instead have to settle in for a IPS.
Arjun however gets involved in a case, that is the murder
of a man, and as a result is not able to take his
position. Prakash Raj who was about to resign his
position as a police officer just after a day due to his
disinterest in it, changes his mind when his arch rival
is brought to the jail as a convict.
So The rest of the movie focuses on
how Praksh Raj tried to keep Arjun in the prison with his
schemes and ploys and how Arjun manages to come out of it
all to reunite with his lover, Abhirami.
Prakash Raj is certainly what keeps
the movie above average. Though his style is not anything
new, it is still what makes his character tick again.
The director ManojKumar could have
easily avoided getting a complicated screenplay into the
storyline. When some of the ploys used in the movie are
noteworthy, others are simply ridiculous. And the legal
laws have been twisted accordingly so as to fit the
director's needs.
Abhirami is certainly dazzling and
impressive. After a couple of Malayalam movies, this much
deserved break into the Tamil Cinema is sure to take her
to new heights. Even newcomer Uma has done a good job
too.
Arjun is yet again his usual. Delivers the dialogues and
the punches with equal impact. But certainly not his
best.
Deva's score is also just about okay.
All in all the movie looks decent enough for a watch and a satisfactory run at the box office too.
