1.25 /5
A dutiful son returns to India to wash away the domestic sins committed by his dead father. This journey takes him to his dad's native village, Karuppampatti, and he intends to unite all his long-lost relatives together to celebrate Pongal. He even uses Bill Gates as a tool to achieve his intentions!!!
We are also shown the father's flashback in a city college. He turns out to be a really mean and heartless young punk with the taste for the high life. His life take a turn for the worse after he moves to Paris and this leads to his ultimate demise.
Ajmal plays both the father and son and tries his best. He goes overboard on many occasions but is a looker for sure. His attempts at dance fall flat though and his voice sounds too delicate.
The romance between Ajmal and Aparna is lifeless and a total drag, comedy by Jagan is OK with some nice youthful double-entendres but heroine Aparna is a total plastic dud with hardly anything natural about her
Among the pluses would be the movie's visual tone ... it looks sleek and polished ... The Disco song is really peppy and has come out well on screen too.
VERDICT: Probably people who watch TV mega serials would like this stale melodramatic movie. There are many aunties in the movie mouthing cliched family based dialogues and this just brings on the serial effect even more. Still if you are really bored, you may try this out for some gags.
