The rest you have to see for yourself. Keep your eyes open (or don't) for a small but sexy role by Ramya Krishnan. The star of this movie is the unseen writer(s) and the story and dialogues.
A creative and concrete bridge between Classic Hollywood Comedy 'Arsenic And Old Lace' and Hilarious Tamill Comedy 'Charlie Chaplin' with Hysterical gags. I wanted to use different tagline in regular format and keep this spoilers stuff in the middle but then i thought how many people have actually seen those films. So, they won't find a link between those two films and cannot predict the story. Let me elaborate a little, first, Frank Capra's popular 'Arsenic And Old Lace' (1944). A hysterical comedy revolves around a dead body and the protagonist tries to hide it from every visitor of the house. Second is, 'Charlie Chaplin' (2002), a hysterical Tamil Comedy which has been remade in other industries. It tells a hilarious story of a husband's misunderstood affair with a call girl. KS Ravikumar's Panchatanthiram mixes these two storylines to offer a non-stop laugh riot. Kamal Haasan plays Ram, a Playboy yet a loyal husband who goes on tricking to hide a dead body first and then his non-existent affair from his possesive wife who have always found him guilty by mistake. It creates a mad chaos and similar cover-up but then brings more unexpected twists in the second half. While doing so, it does not forget to fulfill the basic demand which is, providing situational gags. Kamal Haasan is fantastic as Ram in every situation and it's full of variations despite having a single baring throughout. His English accent, misleading facts and that climax speech when he speaks in multiple languages everything is so freaking amazing. The cast is huge and everyone does provide little little from their sides to cook a sweet dish for family audience. Ravikumar's direction is absolutely flawless. You know, in this genre many director commit mistakes while gambling with the characters and creating confusion though unrealistic situations but Ravikumar had enough sense to realise that the confusion has to be interim otherwise it becomes a loop. So, overall, a Fancy Classic.
