Vilangu

I had to pass my week off couple of days ago and without much expectations, i sat to start watching Vilangu (Shackles). This series has impressed me with lifestyle portrayal of policemen and their distinctive way of treating guilty in police station. Apparently, i would like to laud Ajesh for his incredible contribution in music part. The narration was like a slow dopamine, it perfects with on and off riveting, paradigm changing scenes. Most importantly, Vimal aka Vemal numerology name change has worked out well for the actor and this is his exact premise to prove himself and he does well indeed without a flaw. Beside him, Bala Saravanan is astounding & equally intimidating with his crisp dialects, profanities are easily makes viewers to glued into it. And, Kicha is sure a chicken dinner winner & startles by his uncanny acting. With all of this aforesaid accolades, i personally felt unnecessary obscene scenes could have trimmed and that could leverage "Vilangu" to recommend to all age watch entertainer. Albeit, it is definitely watchable first ever tamil decent web series. Mr Prashanth Pandiraj, you have proved your capability as a director.

Wonderfully written and Executed. Has all the hallmark of being one of the best from Tamil in OTT.

Vimal was flawless, and so was Balasaravanan. Visuals were brilliant, particularly the opening scene where the station dynamics was shown. A very rooted story and no non sense story telling helps this series be one of the best.

Generally don't watch Web Series, but after having read its review in Vikatan, thought of giving it a try.

What started as an one episode plan, went onto complete 4 episodes at a stretch completing 4 episodes, because of its excellent screenplay and very different Background music.

Whoever (adult) would like to start watching Tamil Web-series, probably can start with this.

Acting of Vimal was too good and in some places he simply scores with his silence and facial reactions, same goes to Kiccha Ravi too, what a performance, out of the blue!

Very good supporting roles done by Bala Saravanan & Munishkanth too.

Reason for 8 stars is, till 4th episode, since there are plenty of twists and turns, it keeps audience guessing, however from 5th episode, screenplay loses its intensity and audience can easily guess, what's coming. Probably those two episodes could have been better done!

The plot just deviated and end was so basic. If you watch the beginning and you will be edge of the seat to know what next and makes so curious, but sadly the end was not much. But from screenplay, music, cinematography, actor, and story was great. Hope the next series might be a good one.

This webseries is full of twist and turn, made me to watch all episodes in full stretch... Director has well brought out the work life balance challenges of Police department. Vimal and Bala Saravanan acting are very casual and synced well with story. Ultimate hero to me is Krishna character, from saadhu to saadhu villan. Best acting in this movie.

Overall, good entertainment series..
