It was a long time before we saw Sundar C handling story, screenplay, dialogues and direction. Last time, it was Madhavan starrer ‘Rendu’ that proved to be a good success in box office. Off the late, Sundar C hop-skipped into the arena of acting and won laurels for his new attempt. Now he is back to the pavilion of wielding megaphone for the film ‘Nagaram’.

According to Sundar C, the film is nothing but his brainchild as he crafted the screenplay with much interesting ingredients and produced by his home banner, he boasted of lots of creative freedom.

However, it’s somewhat disappointing to see that the film is nothing but a rework of Hollywood movie ‘Carlito’s Way’ that had Al Pacino, Sean Penn and Penelope Ant Hill in lead roles.

The film’s narrative style is same as the American movie as it opens with Selvam (Sundar C), a criminal being treated inside an Intensive Care Unit. The film travels to the flashback sequences where Selvam is coming out of prison for a criminal activity for the sake of his boss Bhai (veteran actor G. Srinivasan). With the help of his friend-police Sakkara Pandi (Bose Venkat), he comes out of prison and decides to quit the criminal activities. Offered a new job by Bhai, Selvam heads to Hyderabad, where he meets Bharathi (Anuya of SMS fame), a professional dancer. Both fall in love with each other and decide to get married. But sooner, Selvam is dragged by his past life and is drenched in unavoidable problems with a twist in climax.

Movie Review: Uthama Puthiran

Dhanush and Jawahar Mithran together have earlier worked together in couple of remakes ‘Yaaradi Nee Mohini’ and ‘Kutty’. With one of them being a grand success and another as an average fare, the duo is back in action with yet another remake entertainer. ‘Uthama Puthiran’ is a remake of yesteryear Telugu blockbuster titled ‘Ready’. The Tamil remake proves to be an excellent family entertainer laced with romance, comedy, family, sentiments and drama.

The film revolves around Siva (Dhanush), who belongs to a rich family and is an engineering college student. He is thrown into discombobulated scenario thrown out of his house for helping his cousin girl marry her boyfriend on the day of marriage. But Siva’s uncle Raghu (Bhagyaraj) sends money through his friend. In an unexpected turn of events, Siva kidnaps Pooja (Genelia D’ Souza) for a mistaken identity while helping his friend marry girlfriend. Siva had already fallen in love with Pooja while she passed through him in a car. Now he comes to know that even Pooja isn’t interested in marriage and she is forced to marry for the sake of property by her uncle. Now Siva tries to woo Pooja and win the favor of family members for marrying her.

Movie Review: Mynaa

Producer Udhayanidhi Stalin is well known for his spellbinding promotional campaigns. This year has been as special for him as the films he released have become blockbusters. Starting off with Gowtham Menon’s ‘Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya’, his success graph was raised with ‘Madharasapattinam’ and recent release ‘Boss Engira Baskaran’. For the first time, he has released a small budget movie with newcomers in lead roles.

Mynaa is nowhere different from other village based movies, especially the love stories. The film has some traces of various Tamil movies of that genre.

For years, it wasn’t just for Shankar, but for his fans as well, who had been curiously looking upon his dream project ‘Enthiran’. Nearly before 10 years, Kamal Haasan and Preity Zinta were supposed to be the part of this film later following Shankar approaching Shah Rukh Khan in the Hindi make. At last, the expectations went higher and higher as the film was to be made with Superstar Rajnikanth and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

The biggest brands – Superstar, Aishwarya Rai, A.R. Rahman, Shankar, Sun Pictures was more than enough to sell the product and finally the big day arrives in a much grander way.

So, how does the film work out? Does it live up to our expectations?

Definitely, it exceeds our expectations as this is something far beyond brilliance in the career of everyone in this film. For sure, this will be the greatest milestone for Shankar, Superstar Rajnikanth, A.R. Rahman and other technicians. The film doesn’t boast of usual Rajnikanth stuffs as there are no introduction songs with group dancers and grand music.
