Plot
Murugan, who had been working in the forest department, was thrown out by a ranger due to some internal politics. He and his friend, Rupesh, joined the army training in Jharkhand. He witnesses the harsh reality there, including physical pain, discrimination, and political oppression. Sadaiyan, Murugan’s brother, who was considered an anti-social element, is ready to do anything to get Murugan, this job. What happens next? Will Murugan get a job? What is Sadaiyan’s fate?
Star Performance
Kalaiyarasan is good as ever. He excels in all emotions. Dinesh did his part well, despite the limited screen time. Shabeer is good, and Bala Saravanan serves the purpose well. Vinsu and Riythvika didn’t get significant roles.
Analysis
The script is quite decent, and the screenplay moves at the right pace. Some training scenes remind us of

starrer Taanaakkaran. Kalaiyarasan is the right choice for the role, yet Dinesh should’ve been given more screen time. If his character had appeared for some more time on screen, it would have elevated some sequences. The combination scenes between Kaliayarasan and Shabeer are well-made. Some scenes missed the needed punch. The torture scenes should’ve been reduced by half. The visuals are okay. The BGM helped a lot to elevate the scenes.

Verdict
The film is a decent watch for the audience who loves watching different movies that speak about brutal reality!
