        Whodunnit

        The movie belongs to Rekha . She has nice prominent features to show her emotions and wears cotton sarees to show her domestic submissive wife status . Coming from a poor back ground she marries Raghuvaran as he is her brother's friend. He , being a sadist keeps torturing her for no reason at all. Desperate and disillusioned, she plans some escape . Her former close friend Anand Babu keep coming into their lives to create more suspicion and confusions . Rahman is an escaped convict . They already have a history together . When he comes to Rekha's house to hide, he realises that Raghuvaran's body has been found . Confusion after confusion, twist after twist .. the movie has enough turns to keep us glued to our seats. The movie does not have many characters but each one has a story to tell . Raghuvaran is on top as a suspicious husband . Rekha matches him step by step. It makes for a fine family viewing .
