A typical rom-com, well what should be my expectations? we all know its gonna sway happy side and is not gonna have any mystery to solve, so the bar is already very low, the only expectation was good performances from the lead actors. And that is, missing.
The movie is the pinnacle of clichés, do you remember the TV serials, even if you don't watch it for a year and watch it again, you can still understand what the story is in a couple of minutes. This will give you the exact experience, nothing in this movie is awe-inspiring. I thought Jeyam Ravi could not get any worse after watching Thillalangadi, but he proves he can get a lot worse like this movie. Am truly surprised with this actor, he gives some stunning performances in the past and fades away. Even Nimindhu Nil was a not a blockbuster, but i really liked his realistic acting, he has got skill but he has just taken a oath to screw it more and more with every dumb movie like this I don't even want to talk about Hansika Motwani, she desperately tries to a bitch in the first half and ends up being a laughing stock. The same duo did a movie Engeyum Kadal, again it was a typical rom-com but it was much better movie only because of their acting, why does the director not understand this fact? If you think about the story it has got substance, a wannabe rich girl and a honest lover boy, its definitely not a bad ploy and i have seen worse, but no where in the movie the actors realise their character and makes a complete parody of it with their acting.
If a actor swears in the movie and you end up laughing, that by itself tells you where the movie is headed. Utter disbelief, the movie is way too long.. Again lets look at Engeyum Kadhal, the movie had very limited scope to entertain and the director knew it, the movie was just over 2 hours and if we take away 5 beautiful songs, it would just be an hour and half, which is totally acceptable. Here, the intro where we see 10 minutes of dub smash from various movies, which was no way related to the movie, that right there says the director has no confidence. The movie tries to be clever with the narration but as a thumb rule, narration should only used when you are backtracking events, not when you are going with the movie as it goes. Doesn't solve the purpose, it is like announcing in you marriage with a megaphone to all your relatives that you are getting married. Duh, they know it and that's why they are there.
A mediocre script made worse by pathetic screenplay and lackluster performances from two actors who have given some good movies in the past. A rom-com with awful songs is never gonna be remembered and this movie will be forgotten even before the end credits.
