Analysis:
Story penned by Ram Bhimana feels familiar. A multimillionaire hiding hua identity living as a common man for some days is not new. We can find tropes in Srimanthudu and Bichagadu. But, the treatment is different for those films. The emotions and struggle has been neatly handled. The first half is entertaining and the second half feels dragged at times. The film goes on aliner mode without any twists. Runtime becomes plus point. Dialogues are thought Provoking especially Prakash Raj’s dialogues during climax stand out.
Music by Gopi Sundar is good and provides effective background score too. Cinematography by PG Vindha stands as one of the highlights with vibrant visuals. Editing could have been better especially in the second half. Producers deserve special mention for delivering a quality output.
Rating: 3.25/5
Bottom-line: Entertaining & Thought Provoking
