Hits
- 2 dashing heroes. Srikanth as Saamy gives his best ever show. He looks awesome and spews villainy. Vishnu looks like a typical Tamil action hero and does well too.
- Poorna as Srikanth's intense lover looks seducing and acts ok too.
- Quite an interesting screenplay.
- The 2 kids as the young Saamy and Karuna are very good.
- The shots of Srikanth blindfolded on the railway track are thrilling
- The comical climax of Saamy being sent by Karuna to the tutorials is nice.
Misses
- Poonam Bajwa in dual roles is equally bad in both the roles. That too as the elder Brahmin women, she is pathetic. The characterization of a Brahmin woman is in very low taste.
- Both the love tracks are needless and purely commercial in nature. That too the Vishnu-Poonam love track is nonsensical.
- Bad songs with equally bad placement.
- BGM is loud most of the times
- Pooja in a cameo as the teacher evokes sympathy but such a small, insignificant role for the Nan Kadavul actress
- Unclear dialogue delivery by all the lead actors.
VERDICT
Mostly watchable but, for the songs and the 2 love tracks.
