Featured reviews
Emotion and sentimental scenes reaches the epic
Starting gives a breath holding movement and slight of horror
At climax movie still misses some blanks of the story
Various questions arised in my mind
Some of the scene and the script remain unsolved
I had a few expectation for this movie as the director was very bold with his short films. and also lady superstar nayanthara always fascinates with her choice of selection. actually a really gripping story. but the same screenplay of the movie, dialogues that lack humour and actually it lacks horror element the most. a one time watchable movie. if you really have time to see the lags and logic loopholes in the movie.
The first half was interesting, humorous but the horrifying part is the unconvincing climax. The justification given by the spirit for chasing the heroine is very silly, which pulls down all the efforts putforth in the making of this movie.
KM Sarjun's Airaa is about a supernatural story based on an abstract concept called " The Butterfly Effect" cleverly adapted to Tamil audience sensibilities..The director has tried to spin an mostly emotional tale with a supernatural backdrop.
Kollywood is not really known for horror themed movies. Although the horror elements are based on Japanese horror conventions like "The Ring" and "Ju-On" they are not overdone but they work as intensifying thriller elements for the emotional story.The film for the most part is an average ride. Although inspired by Asian Horror conventions , it it never chills the bone quite in the way Asian horror does. The first half offers a typical few jumps scares and investigative mystery thriller elements but these remain as fleeting moments to set the tone of the film.
The film moderately build up the suspense but does not really keeps one on the edge of their seat except for us to wonder what's going to happen next.until the second half. The acting performances for the most part are average and Nayanthara gives a decent performance with her expressions on screen . However the CGI isn't very much convincing or exceptionally well done relying on the typical motifs imagery and cliches usually seen in movies of this sort.
Overall an above average thriller that does not do anything in excess or falls short. Watchable if u have nothing else to watch...

This film is not an engaging one but it shares a right content. Some people born in a miserable circumstances, Live more miserably, also die miserably. The others around them make their life more difficult by adding salt to the wound. Bhavani's life is such a one. She born as a bad omen and grown up by hearing the curse words of own mother, siblings and neighbours. And died even without living a fare life. She has all the right to take revenge as a ghost. But the film could have concluded in 1.15-1.30 hrs. It stretched to 2.30 hrs without having a detailed story. It only seems engaging when reaches to the end.
