    A COMMERCIAL MASTERPIECE!!

    This is the very first movie i watched in theatre, and this is the one movie from when i became a die hard fan of Suriya.. POSITIVES:- 1. Suriya's screen presence 2. Cinematography 3. Songs and Bgm 4. Extraordinary Twists 5. Fast paced 6. Unique storyline 7. Breathtaking Stunts Etc.......... NEGATIVES:- I DON'T THINK SO IF ANY.. Some may feel the movie a bit slower in the 2nd half.. But the Climax makes them Forget the few negatives here and there. OVERALL:- THE BEST COMMERCIAL MOVIE I'VE EVER SEEN💯💯

    A excellent movie from k.v.anand

    K.V.Anand and Auba were back with Ayan after Kanaa Kandaen (which was an excellent movie which became average hit due to lack of publicity). I have known them through a monthly 'super novel' where Suba(Suresh-Bala) were writers and Anand was a photographer which made them unite in film industry. I was a great fan of them and eagerly waited for this. And they are back with an excellent intelligent movie in which hit was written everywhere Surya plays a role of smuggler (not a serious one) which was characterized superbly and the movie moves in a jet fast with humor, thrill, action at right proportions. Especially first fight sequence was superb challenging Hollywood. Songs which was a slight let down from Harris has been pictured superbly locations mesmerizes us. Tamanna ,Vijay TV Jegan(which was a sweet surprise) , and Prabhu done their parts well. Story revolves around rivalry between two smuggling groups yet it was joyful ride with humor from starting to end. After lot of days i heard clapping in theater from starting to end and everybody came out of theater with smile in face which tells the films victory. We cannot categorize this movie into particular genre like thriller,action,or comedy. It is a new kind of genre with intelligently taken scenes which sometimes surpasses Hollywood and sure it also belongs to super duper hit genre.

    One of the best surya's movie

    This movie is soo thrilling and interesting. Everyone acted well. Kv Anand just nailed it. Few scenes could have been deleted. Good movie. Music was good and songs were excellent.

    Decent Commercial with surprisingly engaging screenplay

    I watched this movie quite a few times, just watched it again cause liked it in my childhood and I wanted to know how I would feel about it now.

    And it still remained amazing to me how the movie keeps the viewers focused while still maintaining the elements necessary for a full-fledged commercial blockbuster. Of course, there are unnecessary scenes in this like in very movie, but the good scenes outweigh the unnecessary ones in my opinions. All actors (especially Surya and Karunas) were well utilized (didn't like Jagan's character that much though, not for the acting but for how his character was written and he was somewhat predictable for me), the plot wasn't draggy at all, and overall the entire movie just went really smooth.
