Avan Ivan is Simple and humorous. Vishal – Jai Ho..

-


Director Bala took two actors who have shown normal acting caliber so far and asked them to perform. Both the actors have put genuine try and have pleased us with their performances too. Especially Vishal!
The story is quite simple. Revenge is the main theme. But the extras, which the story throws at us, make it an interesting watch. The casting is good, right from the God fearing inspector to Vishal’s mother played by Ambika. The movie starts with a folk song in which Vishal is introduced and he dances with a punch. Soon a character by name “Highness” is introduced and how the entire cast cracks jokes forms the first half. We laugh, and laugh at some of the most unexpected moments. One coming to my mind now is the scene in which Vishal attends the party thrown by the inspector for the criminals. The movie goes on with humor during the first half. The humor is genuine and will be enjoyed although some will be cherished by adults more.

Vishal has gone for a full transformation. He has squint eyes and portrays female movements sometimes. Sports a new body language and has put in lot of efforts to this character. He literally surprises us which his performance. With this role he will be respected for his acting hereafter. Awards? Fingers crossed.
Arya has nothing much to do compared to Vishal. But supports the humor and has relied on body movements for humor. The movie has couple of heroines who form pairs to our heroes. But they don’t have screen time and also don’t stay in our minds too.
The BGM is good and I was surprised that a couple of songs which was in the Audio were not used in the movie! Suriya’s guest entry will promote this movie and his noble cause.
Only after the interval the villain emerges and soon after it the humor slowly dies down. Bala’s trade mark is to kill at least one character in his films. Here too “The Highness” is killed by the villain. Then it becomes a predictable revenge. The movie ends abruptly.
My rating for the movie would be a 3/5. Go to the movie for Vishal and the genuine comedy the movie throws at you. Enjoy J

Kanden Kadhalai in Tamil < Jab We Met in Hindi

On the above picture do you see any difference? Hmmmm… This is the level of similarity you can see when you see Kanden Kadhalai. But I understood direction is not simply copying. You have to have the magic touch which the original director (Imtiaz Ali) has. Kannan (Director of Kanden Kadhalai) didn’t have that magic touch. Scene to Scene, Dialogue to Dialogue it is same as Jab We Met. Although he has left out some really cute scenes which comes in Jab We Meet. Some scenes coming to my mind are, when Geet and Adhitya try and catch a running train in Manali soon after he finds out her in Manali and she tells abt her dream. And the very last scene where Geet’s Sikh Grandfather says that he knew every thing and he needs only one second to find what is running between the girl and boy. In that scene you will be seeing Geet and Adhitya with their 2 children and giving a smile saying “Ji Daji” Those are some of the real sweet scenes in Jab We Met and we don’t find them in this movie.

Angadi Theru is touching and true…

Angadi Theru Movie Review (4/5). Angadi Theru means a Market. And a heavily crowded market in Chennai means Ranganathan Street . And that’s where most of the movie unfolds. Many would have gone inside Saravana Stores. And how many of us would have thought about the uniformed sales people working there? Vasanthabalan just has not visited Ranganathan street . But paused and thought about it and made this touching script mixing some hard reality too. The movie shows the lives of Kanni and Jothilingam for a period of roughly 1 year. And that happens to be the first year after they meet. They gain many things but loose many too. There is no hard lined story in this film. This movie can be taken as a chapter in a very big novel. But this chapter seems to be the touching one in the whole novel. Jothilangam a 12 th standard school topper from a village is forced to work for his family due to the sudden death of his father. He comes to Chennai and joins as a sales person at Senthil Mugura

Tamil Padam.. Gives you only a few genuine Laughs.

It’s been a very long time since I watched a movie first day first show. But got the opportunity for this movie after some quick planning. We decided around 3pm that we are going to the movie and then started from office at 5pm . Since it was Bangalore we where able to get the ticket for Tamil Padam very easily and to my surprise the theatre was not houseful too!!! The movie started with the Spoof of Karuthamma. But here they are killing the boy babies instead of Girl. The reason? Because boys from that village (Cinemapatti) leave for Chennai and start acting as heros in Tamil Cinema and proclaim themselves with all names like Chinna Talabathi, Mini Super start etc and also disclose that they want to become the CM in the second year itself. But our hero (who is the baby) escapes the packed super Quality Kalli paal that is kept for killing him and heads to Chennai along with Paravai Muniyamma. There are some punch dialogues which spoof Vijay and an opening song which comes similar
