Samuthirakani breaking stereotypes
27 February 2022
The good thing about this director's films is that he doesn't show negative stuff very much and shows them very lightly, which is a very good thing to do in these kinda village films.

The backstory of the conflict between the 2 prominent roles which carries the overall film wasn't strong enough to really carry over the entire film but there were some parts of the film that worked out well maybe due to the fact that the characters being played are by the senior actors which lift the film.

This film introduces Samuthirakani as a comedian for the first time and hopefully, this would turn out well for him as it was somewhat refreshing to see an actor who gives advice in most of the films doing these kinda silly comedic roles which break the stereotypes in the industry and the character & the sequences involved weren't bad either, it did work in some places and hopefully, if this trend continues, then we'd most probably see many such comedians from different roles pop up and the trend marks the end of the general comedy actors dominating the space.

Overall, the arc of the film was on a lighter note in all areas and is well presented but most of the film doesn't work because of the same reason of not having strong reasoning for the conflict b/w 2 prominent roles which drives the entire film.
