Patriotism with romance

After a long time watched a movie with patriotic theme. Big applause to intelligent screenplay which is simply brilliant. Vijay is fantastic as Captain Jagdish. The subtle change in expressions and body language in camouflaging his working mind as per the situation is well portrayed. At the same time presenting himself as emotional family person as well as a cold-blooded ruthless interrogator is awesome.Cinematography is picturesque. However, role of heroine is limited to glamor factor. In fact few scenes involving her seemed forceful. Background score blends well with the situation. This is a must watch movie for entertaining and thrilling plot.
