Not a lot of promotion, no major star cast to boast about, and not big box office numbers too. Still, giving it a go was a good choice, as it surprised me in a positive way.
This is a story about a friendly PT teacher in a school who has been brought up to be timid and warned not to get involved in any problems because an astrologer predicted he might die if he does. As fate would have it, he finds the girl next door has been molested and ridiculed, and he decides to stand up for her, taking the influential man responsible to court.
Hiphop Tamizh Adhi plays the leading man, but unfortunately, he struggles to express himself and lacks the aura of a hero. Kashmira Pardeshi has a minimal role, while Anikha Surendran shines brightly even in her brief appearance. I wished she had more screen time. Seasoned actors Thiagarajan, Prabhu, Ilavarasu, and Devadarsini Sukumaran perform their parts decently.
The story is engaging, but it falters when the courtroom drama unfolds. The court scenes are overly cinematic and illogically written, with absurdity peaking at the twist reveal. The twist felt unnecessary for the statement they were trying to make.
Despite its flaws, the film has many elements in its favor. The songs are good, and the choreography enhances each musical piece. The story's setting and the conveyed message are clear.
If you can overlook the last 15 minutes and the male lead's acting skills, it is a decent watch and can be enjoyed with family. #pranureviews #PTSir #PTSirReview.
