    Shud hav trimmed the length n removed the lousy slow motion scenes. Nevertheless, a captivating serial killer film with terrific music n a hot actress.

    I came across this title on IMDb n the synopsis piqued up interest. As a fan of serial killer films n aft seeing almost every Hollywoood, Korean, Spanish n German serial killer films, I can vouch that this film is well made for fans of the genre. I am not familiar with any of the star cast, director or people involved with this film. The lead actor is decent n the actress very hot. The plot is about a man who is obsessed with serial killers n who wants to join film making business but out of family pressure has to join police police force. At the same time there is a serial lurking in the cops's precinct killing young girls. The female who played the cop's sis cannot act for sure. Some of the action sequences were laughable n also the last scene with the cop n the killer face to face n the then hide n seek n the action was a bit lousy. The house of the killer had a creepy feel to it n there is sufficient tension n suspense. The background story of the killer was given too much time, in fact the problem with Indian cinema is that they spoon feed too much but thank God there were no lousy songs n unnecessary muscle flaunting. The film deserves a 7 but I am a bit generous with an 8 cos of the effort.

    A movie made with a lot of heart... 10/10

    Great plot, good execution, and great performances made this a memorable outing for me...

    First of all, would love to see Vishnu Visal going forward selecting good stories like this. Indru Netru Naalai was a similar selection from him. Here too, he selected a proper psycho-thriller, which I haven't seen executed this well in recent years in Indian cinema. Making a 2hr 45 min long movie takes guts these days. It shows how confident the director was, with the content.

    A lot of set-ups and pay-offs are there in the movie, which spring up every now and then making it interesting. The BG Score by Ghibran was great, kept me glued to the screen. The children performed so well in their respective roles, and so did Amala Paul, Kali Venkat, Nizhalgal Ravi, etc.. The twists were believable, and not the familiar one-twist saves all kindof mediocre stuff.

    It tests your observation throwing stuff right in front of your eyes, and hiding them perfectly. Worth a watch...

    South Director make this Mistake Everytime

    This Movie is On Another Level. But South Director should Dub their movies in All Indian Languages especially Hindi. Many people even dont know about this Masterpiece. Because of this Bollywood Makes remake of this type of movies.

    Gibran is the Real Ratsasan - BGM haunts you

    After Deeran, yet another highly impactful movie which gets elevated by Gibran's BGM. The antagonist detailing was so perfect and this Indian movie will surely give you goosebumps like hollywood thriller Seven etc.,

    A must watch for any language viewer who loves psychological thrillers.
