It is little boring and easily predictable and easy going kind of story giving a message to the public. Film is said to be inspired by Hindi movie ‘Salam Bombay.’

Analysis: The story describes every type of people works there. However, this is not so good as story wise and seems little documentary based but still entertaining. Beautiful location of the beach and growing love story with moving waves is another lovely part of this movie. The soft and refreshing sound of waves along with melodious music given by Girish binds a sweet and mesmerizing atmosphere. Overall it got a rating of 2.75 which state that it is worth watching.

Star Performances: For a film to be successful, the location and perfect photography is must. When any film is shouted, its filmography could give life to even a most boring story. In this department, this movie has won the competition. The beautiful sight we can see is its best part. Chenemetrography done by Vijay is just up to the mark. Music is also very entertaining. All the cast playing different roles were encouraging. Children were just exceptional while playing their respective roles. Lead role Sivakarthikeyan was sometimes doing comedy and serious, and there was not any impactful role for the female lead.
