    Y so many Social Messages? The Movie is a Mess!!

    Firstly, you have insomnia that leads to low blood pressure, you don't have to visit a doctor or take pills. You can fix it temporarily with a lip lock. Then the Voice of Sub-Inspector Madonna (Nivetha Pethuraj) does not suit her at all and her emotions were very bad. And, Murugavel, as a police officer, wants to "reform the society". What does he do? He volunteers to clean the sewage on the road. I thought only the first half was underwritten and hoped at least the second half would be better. But no! It was terrible. Vijay Antony in a pose of Lord Muruga with the 'vel' (the holy lance) in one of the songs. For a moment, I thought I was watching some 'Saami-film'. It was really funny to hear "Rowdy naa veththu, police dhaan geththu!".

    Vijay Antony sould stop "experimenting" with "mass-y lossy ended films" and stick to solid content-driven films like Naan, Salim and Pichchaikaran.

    Crap

    No proper direction.. So awkward and doesn't make any sense.. Vijay Antony need to re look into his Acting Skills..

    Good social message with bad story telling

    Vijay Antony's pre-release movie scenes video does gather a lot of audiences to the theatre, this time i got into that trap believing the movie will be nice, but it failed to meet my expectations. Although it had a very good social message nicely crafted in it, the way it was delivered was not so engaging with the audience at all & watching Vijay Antony doing nothing with his acting, i think, why'd he still be in this space? If he's not able to improve his acting skills even after doing so many movies, that's a very huge mistake at his end and i think he should rectify that at first. Then comig to his story selection, somehow he managed to select some good ones up until before this movie, but in this one, that was also slipped down, i think he's not going in the right direction, probably he should be changing his thought-process/perspectives/dimensions.

    Worst movie

    Crazy movie. Because of my friend had to watch this movie. Idiotic . Not a good story. Hero doesn't know how to act, atleast don't overact . Showed him as god in one scene. Bullshit.
