    This is a theme theft from Face Off.

    As usual the Tamil film world is making spices or masala in Hindi. Usually the new directors are trying their hands by mixing the plots from various movies from west. The directors are in a hurry to make a name quickly. So they approach big heroes with this formulas. This is a theme theft from Face Off.

    A great show by Aravind swamy and Jeyam Ravi. A competitor for Thani Oruvan :P

    Lakshman who has raised to fame by his debut directorial Romeo Juliet has produced another intelligent drama. This time he has hooked up the Thani Oruvan duo and the duo has rocked once again.

    The plot of Bogan is intelligent and well-crafted one. The importance given to the antagonist was excellent. Aravind Swamy who has threatened Kollywood as Sidharth Abimanyu (Thani Oruvan) has delivered another energetic performance. As Aditya he has hypnotized everyone on screen and off screen. He is natural as a baddie (No offense).

    Jayam Ravi as Vikram is as impressive as Aravind Samy. The police officer in Ravi is always a treat to watch and he doesn't disappoint. Be it a straight forward police officer or the baddie (Baddie? Have to watch the film :P) Ravi scores distinction.

    Hansika Motwani has little to offer in terms of screen presence but she manages to plant herself in the audience's mind. All the other characters have done their part well. But it is all the way Jayam Ravi and Aravind Swamy's show.

    Bogan Lakshman has done a great screenplay. The first half was entertaining and tops in the interval block. The second half is on and on a cat and mouse game between the positive and negative. The thrill in the second half never leaves till the climax.

    The biggest positive of the movie is the way the negative role was portrayed. There are scenes were the baddie over shadows the hero which brings whistle in the theaters (Especially for Aravind Swamy). The errors that Jeyam Ravi makes as a cop was a reality touch.

    Soundarajan's hard work behind the camera is evident throughout the movie. D.Imman's background was brilliant and boosts the screenplay, but he fails to score in songs (Except Damaal Dumeel). Every department has given it's best to make the movie a hit.

    The length of the movie might play boring game on few. Otherwise it's a great show by Ravi and Aravind.

    Nice Commercial Movie

    "An average movie just for the brilliant acting shown by Arvind Swamy and his pair up with Jayam Ravi"

    Summary (no spoilers)

    This movie is basically the story of a person called Bogan and what is really very special about him that makes a police officer so much interested in arresting him.

    My Review (no spoilers)

    The plot of this movie is below average they did have a good concept but depicting it in some places was really funny nothing unique about it. All the songs of this movie were kind of boring and not catchy except for the song "Senthoora" sung by Luksimi Sivaneswanlingam which kept ringing again and again in my head. Yes there was some good amount of action which does keep us glued to our seats. Arvind Swamy as usual did an awesome job in this movie and his pair up with Jayam Ravi is too good. Hansika could have done a better job in this movie. I think a sequel is coming up for this movie but I would suggest the writers of this movie to first write a really good script then make it into a movie.

    My Recommendation

    Yes I would say to watch it for the pair up of Arvind Swamy and Jayam Ravi which I liked hope you guys will too

    Bogan (2017)

    The movie was superb. Jayam Ravi and Arvind Swamy rocked in the movie. The story was so new in the movie. The movie was not at all boring. But some scenes have no logic. Songs and BGM in the movie were amazing.
