Plot

Muthaiah is an electrician in Vadaputhupatti, Theni. He is married to Chellamma. They had been married for seven years but don’t have children. Muthaiah is an alcoholic, and he is accompanied by Varadhan. Besides spending his earnings to drink, he grabs Chellamma’s jewels. Sunil, a North Indian youth works in a factory as a supervisor. He resides opposite to Muthaiah. He speaks well with Chellamma, which creates suspicion in Muthaiah’s mind. Once, Muthaiah manhandles Chellamma in a drunk state. Sunil pushes Muthaiah and saves Chellammah. This adds fuel to the fire on Muthiah’s dirty mind. He plans to kill Sunil. But, Sunil dies in an accident. The police inform Sunil’s family and keep his body near Muthaiah’s house. What happens next forms the rest of the story.

Star Performance

Kungumaraj and Vairamala did justice to the given roles. Ramesh Vaidya did his comedy role well. Sendhil Kochdai is as good as Vairamala’s caring father.

Analysis

Initially titled Vadakkan, the film faced censor issues, and hence the title change. The story is decent, but the characters are not penned properly. Certain scenes lose the logic, especially when Muthaiah steals his neighbor’s money; his wife easily forgives him, though she had been seriously scolding him for his alcoholic behaviour. Certain dialogues should have been cared for a bit. The cinematography is good, and the editing is pretty decent.

What’s There?

  • A few performances are worth watching

What’s Not There?

  • The characters are not properly developed
  • Logic is missing in certain scenes
  • Writing is not so gripping

Verdict

Rail showcases affection, bonding, as well as the life threatening alcoholism. Though the film has a message, the weak writing, didn’t make it an impressive film.
