Naan Sigappu Manithan

What could have been a great movie has been reduced to a blatant misinformed portrayal of nacrolepsy. The plot is over dramatised and directed poorly. The lack of logic, even for a Vishal movie is blasphemous. The only decent thing about the movie is it's cinematography.

Vishal's Naan Sigapu Manithan is a Revenge thriller film with a medical disorder tale in the plot. It can be compared to Gajini though this will not make a huge impact like Gajini because of some commercial elements here and there in the plot. Vishal has justified the role of a Narcolepsy patient and portrays the problem they face with the social world. Saranya Ponvannan as usual plays the caring mother character yet it's not boring what she does, make us laugh. Lakshmi Menon for a change as the modern rich man's city girl impresses us with her new looks and acting (credits to the makeup man for using enough touch up coats and colour contacts). She had a good scope in the first half of the movie and in the second half she goes as the sleeping beauty. Iniya the vaagai soodava girl has played the similar role of Thirutu payale Malavika which perfectly fits with her new transformed stunning looks. Her role is short but important and impressive. Supporting roles by Jagan and Mayakam Enna fame Sudar Ramu gives a good hand to the plot. Jayaprakash comes in a short role. The screenplay was good and quite engaging except for the fact of misplacement of songs. Story is also fresh keeping in mind that without digging much into the real medical syndrome if see this as something newly presented it feels fresh. BGM so much was mostly stolen from myakam enna and Gajini. Music was average not impressive by GV. The controversial lip-lock was not so laudable but of course the plot had adultery in so many sections justifying U/A certification. Second half twist might offend so many people particularly female viewers. Overall 3/5. -Reviewed by Sivakumar Balachandran

The movie was worst. The movie was not at all good. The movie has a worst story and many vulgar scenes. Songs and BGM in the movie was also worst. Boring movie.

Story - A man suffering from Narcolepsy disorder, have to strike back for his love.

Positives: New term Narcolepsy in the story, Vishal & Lakshmi Menon, extraordinary first half, Good cinematography, Excellent BGM by GV.Prakash.

Negatives: Last 30mins.

Vishal-Director Thiru combination for 3rd time. Most of us now only came to know what is Narcolepsy. The way director explained about a guy suffering from Narcolepsy from childhood is brilliant. Vishal shared a romantic screen with Lakshmi Menon for the second time. Naan Sigappu Manithan is completely good until the story unlocks something in the screen. Iniya appearance is not fair. Some flashback for revenge is not so strong. Remember still NSM have more +ve than -ve.

Bottom-line - Average commercial with some new dose.

I saw the film a couple of days ago . It was awesome. The film is about a man (Vishal as Indiran) who suffers from Narcolepsy and faces his problems. Vishal's acting is very good. Lakshmi Menon comes in the first half ans a few minutes in second half but second half runs based on her . Jagan and Sundar Ramu as Vishal's friends does a good job . Jayaprakash in a small role foes a good job. first half is full romance and comedy but post interval and after interval takes a turn and the film turns into a thriller. The twist in the second half is unexpected . No one would have expected it. The most important thing is Thiru's screenplay and direction. Don't miss this film.It is definitely worth a watch.
