This is one the movies that has a strong message even though it is directed at folks who will never do any good to the people who elect them.

The way the story has been told and the way the screenplay is done., Seenu Ramasamy can be proud that he has given one of the good movies in Tamil industry. These are the kind of movies that are to be encouraged and are to be watched.

As someone else had written, it leaves you with a lump at the end. The last time I had such a feeling was in year 1996 after watching Kalapani by Priyadarshan.

Go watch..

I've watched this twice and that was many years ago. Still cherish the movie a lot. This was the time when Vishnu gave back to back contend and performance oriented films improvising his skills with every new one. Seenu Ramasamy not just wrote the tale of an Arulappasamy and Esther, but he took us in to the Fishermen Village. The people and their lives were etched straight into celluloid.

A strong screenplay, Good performance by the leads and an undeniable soundtrack by N. R. Raghunanthan(His best album till date).

Of the leads, Vishnu does well with minimal dialogue, relying on his eyes and his expressions to do the communicating, especially in those scenes with Sunaina where he's expected to strum up romance and chemistry.

Sunania is a revelation and she delivers a measured performance. It is perhaps her best ever so far and she leaves a lasting impression. Ram, Saranya , Thambi Ramadurai, Azhagamperumal, Samuthirakani and even Vadivukarasi in that small role is outstanding. However, Nandita Das doesn't have much to do.

The film also benefits enormously from Balasubramaniam's remarkable cinematography, as his camera captures shots of the sea in all its glory and the sheer visual delight of the Para Para Para.. song picturisation will stay in your mind. Raghunathan's songs and background score is commendable.

On the downside, the first half is a bit slow and the climax is contrived. But on the whole, it is a moving drama that will undoubtedly leave you with a lump in your throat. And films like this are hard to find.

Hi,

A very good movie ,great for its simplicity (good direction) and some of scenes which are so touching and express much more meaning of human life.

Good acting and could see a very strong solid love of two souls , the scenes are nice.

like the music ,picturization of the entire movie is very good and meaningful.

Totally feel very happy to watch this movie.

thanks & congrats to all crews to make a such beautiful movie.

Thanks sujith

Such a good movie that did not do commercially well. It highlights the life of a fisherman and the loss of life due to the brutalities of the Srilankan Army...

The characters are well played out... Also brings in the hardships of Fishermen...

The cinematography captures the arid yet beautiful coastline of the Tamilnadu...

Music is also a great plus to the movie... Although the composer is not famous one, he does justice to the storyline...

Great movie that deserves awards...
