Dear Parasuram
Geeta Govindam was also contrived fiction devoid of logic, but the narrative, screenplay and direction were superlative. SVP is an anti climax in comparison.
Perhaps the expectations were too high after your GG, that SVP seemed like a mediocre film. With two powerful themes that have diluted each other (say no to retail loans versus collect only corporate loans). Not many sequences to remember and reminisce (like the Nilu episode or marriage shopping in GG), and you took three years to weave this story line.
Second, please don't under utilise talented actors (Nadia, Keerthi Suresh, Samuthirakani). But must say that you have handled Mahesh sequences well. You are the master of close-up shots. And Thaman's music is a big plus. So this is a good one time watch unlike GG which I watched 9 times in a movie theatre.
