Arun Vijay has finally hit the bull's eye after searching for success for more than 10 years. Malai Malai seems to be a breakthrough for the actor, who had done his part well in many films.

Director A Venkatesh has managed to provide a decent entertainer, despite its routine and predictable elements. The director has aimed at the B and C centers and delivered a movie which could appeal to the masses thanks to his script and Arun Vijay's sincere performance.

Malai Malai: Trailer | Audio Launch

Malai Malai has nothing new to offer. It has a typical ruffian hero, who impresses the girl at the first instance. It has a typical elder brother, who sacrifices his life for his younger brother. It also has a beautiful heroine, who has nothing to do substantially. Finally it has a villain, who can shoot everyone at the drop of a hat and gets away with the crime.

Expectedly, the innocent hero, coming to Chennai to take up a job, bumps on the villain. Though they develop friendship initially, they lock horn, as the innocent hero rubs the villain on the wrong side. Finally, as you know well, out hero, the one man army triumphs against all odds. Meanwhile he shakes his legs for a couple of songs with the curvaceous girl, who is his sweetheart.

The storyline goes like this: Brothers Vettri Vel (Arun Vijay- a van driver) and Palani Vel (Prabhu- a farmer) share a strong bond between them. Vettri meets Anjlai (Vedhika) in Palani and falls for her.

Anjali, an RJ in a leading FM, too loves Vettri. She returns to Chennai after a brief stay in Palani and Vettri comes to Chennai and joins as a driver in a courier company. While he is trying to trace out his over, he bumps on Essakki (Prakash Raj), a dreaded criminal in the city. Soon they become enemies and the rest is all about how Vettri withstands the challenge of all powerful Esakki.

While Arun renders a neat performance, Vedika impresses with her charming and fresh looks. Prabhu and Prakash Raj in predictable roles, add value to the narrative by their solid performances. Kasthuri is watchable in a cameo. Comedy track by Santhanam and Arthi makes us laugh at times. Mani Sharma's music provides a peppy song and a couple of melodies.

Malai Malai might lack logic but it definitely has a magic to woo the masses.
