Plot

Mathew Manjooran is an IPS officer. Mathew has taken the responsibility in finding out a serial killer. In an accident, he loses his teenage daughter and his wife Neelima has gone to coma. When Mathew decides to quit the job, Shaktivel Palanisamy crosses his path. Shakthivel is a doctor and he deals with the people, who loop the law. Shreya is Shakthi’s accomplice. What is Shakthivel’s aim? Is there any link between Mathew and Shakthi? Watch the film in theaters!

 Star Performance

Mohanlal appears in a salt and pepper look and looks stylish. He plays brilliantly. Manju is a natural performer and there is no need to discuss if she has performed well. She has not acted but lived in the given character. Vishal’s performance is okayish and he has done a different role in his career, for the first time. Meka Srikanth has given a villainy performance.

Analysis

Unnikrishnan has chosen a good script to feed the acting hunger of Mohanlal. However, he has missed certain things while designing Vishal and Hansika’s role. Their roles should have been a bit detailed. Unnikrishnan has chosen the right people for his script.

What’s There?

  • Beautiful chemistry between Manju and Mohanlal
  • Cinematography is excellent and the 8k resolution helps a lot to admire the visuals

What’s Not There?

  • Some characters miss the much-needed detailing
  • Screenplay is weak
  • A song is inserted purposely which spoils the sequence
  • Hansika and Meka Srikanth’s dubbing is not good

Verdict

Although the film has a wonderful performance of Mohanlal and Manju, the film doesn’t touch the audiences due to its half-baked scenes. However, it could be watched once for the sizzling chemistry of Manju and Mohanlal.
