Anita Udeep,
the latest
to join the
list of
women
directors in
Tamil, has
made an
honest
attempt to
showcase the
cultural
environment
prevailing
in the high
class
boarding
schools.
Though the
backdrop is
well
portrayed,
the movie
fails to
impress, as
it lacks the
fire power
and focus.

The movie
opens with a
different note.
It shows the
hero Surya
(Sanjeev)
entering the
scene in a
typical heroic
manner when some
goons are trying
to beat up a
man. When you
think this boy
will save the
man, he starts
beating him up
with the help of
the goons, who
are actually
hired by him.
The next scenes
show the
conflicts in the
family of the
boy and you get
more interested
to know what is
in store. The
father is a dada
(Aditya) and the
mother is a
sober person.
They have been
separated and
the boy lives
with the mother,
who wants to
bring him up
without the
traits of his
father. But the
boy, who loves
his mother, has
natural
instincts to
emulate his
farther.
The backdrop
is perfect for
an engrossing
travel. But the
director chooses
to shift base to
picturesque
Ooty, where the
boy is sent by
the mother to
save him from
the clutches of
his dada father.
He joins a hi-fi
school and
caught up in the
power game
played by some
pervert senior
students. He
gets the support
of Babloo (Bobo
Sasi), and the
principal’s
daughter Tanya
(Riya).
Surya, who is
a natural
fighter, keeps
his cool despite
the provocations
by the seniors,
just because he
wants to live up
to his mother’s
expectation. But
he looses his
cool when Babloo
is murdered. He
goes on a
revenge spree
and settles
scores with the
brats once and
for all.
The director
has started off
the movie well
but looses
track, as she
takes the movie
to a different
plane, which is
more of a
deviation than a
development. The
major problem of
the movie is its
lack of focus
and
non-happening
screenplay.
L.K Vijay has
done an
excellent work
with the camera
while Bobo Sasi
has come out
with peppy songs
that sound like
rap songs.
While Anitha
Udeep’s talent
is evident in
most parts, she
has to be
clearer on what
and how she
wants to convey.
