Movie Review

Sreeju Sudhakaran from Team Latestly watched the film. He says, " I had fun watching Dhruv act up against Vikram, but I had no fun with the storyline wrapped around these two. The first half that shows the corruption of Mahaan and his rise as the boss in Tamil Nadu's liquor business walks down some very familiar paths that keeps invoking a sense of deja vu.

Mahaan ditching his former ideals but not his nickname that gets stuck with him as he goes against the same ideals should have been an interesting idea. But the writing is merely packaging old wine in a new bottle. It doesn't help that Mahaan keeps reminding you of Mani Ratnam's Nayakan, only that here the protagonists enters the world of crime by his own choice, and not driven by circumstances.

One scene I liked in the first half is the action sequence that begins with Mahaan beating him his assailants in a long take, while he works around the after-effects of the intoxicant that he has been given. Scenes like these show flashes of the director's brilliance, but the rest of the movie isn't consistent with that."
