Plot

Prabhu’s father is a crime novelist. He is called to Chennai to document his father’s work. In Chennai, Prabhu meets Ramaiah, a policeman. While documenting, he finds something mysterious. Will he solve the mystery? The rest of the film deals with this.

Star Performance

Vetri’s performance is okay. Thambi Ramaiah and Redin feel like misfits in their characters.

Analysis

While reading, the story looks good. But the execution lacks the much-needed grip and logic. The investigation skills of Prabhu are not convincingly shown. Thambi Ramaiah’s slapstick comedy didn’t fit the sequence. Redin’s comedy also gives the same result. Too much exaggeration in the comedy is a big blow to the story. Also, the characters are not properly developed, and they lack depth. For a thriller genre, the antagonist’s role should be strong and have a genuine explanation, which is not present here.

What’s There?

  • The protagonist’s performance is okay

What’s Not There?

  • The characters are not penned properly, especially the villain’s
  • The comedy characters are a total misfit
  • The screenplay lacks grip and logic

Verdict

If the screenplay had been penned with enough grip, the performances would’ve been projected, making the film one of the decent thrillers.
