Remo (2016): We have seen notable films like Chachi 420,Madam etc.. where our lead hero disguises as a lady to solve his problems or love issues.Remo also comes under the same line where Shiva Karthikeyan played a role named Regina Motwani,shortened as Remo,a nurse to woo heroine and to get a chance in a movie.
Plot: Shivakarthikeyan plays SK an aspiring actor, who dreams of becoming a big star one day. He has his two drinking buddies played by Sathish and Rajendran, who also sit around and do nothing.Life is meaningless until Cupid strikes with one glance at the lovely Keerthy Suresh, who plays Kavya, a doctor in the film.Unfortunately for SK, the day he plans to profess his undying love for her turns out to be the day she gets engaged to a well-settled good looking doctor arranged by her parents.She has no clue to even his existence or his one-sided love for her. Though dejected SK decides to get on with his life. A movie audition requires him to dress like a woman and incidentally on this very day he gets to meet Kavya again. SK is dressed up as a female nurse and Kavya very generously offers him a job at the hospital she works in.Thus begins his charade as a pretty woman, who becomes Kavya's friend and confidante.The rest of the film is all about whether he can influence Kavya to fall in love with him.
Plus Points:
1)Music: Anirudh gave chart buster songs to Remo.Especially Senjithaley is my favorite number with awesome music.BGM is also good.
2)Performances: Sivakarthikeyan is a born entertainer understanding the pulse of commercial audience.He is brilliant in his comic timing and dances.His performance as Remo is decent.Surprisingly,Keerth Suresh has given decent performance.Others did their part well.
3)Comedy: Though the movie has silly comedy,its still gives us a smile.Few comedy scenes are hilarious.
Minus Points:
1)Silly Story and Screenplay: Remo has a silly plot with screenplay meanders endlessly to provide some laughs, plenty of sentiments, over-the-top action.Few scenes are illogical and outright silly.
So,Remo is a one time watch with few hilarious scenes and brilliant music but nothing new to offer.
My rating 6/10
