Suseenthiran smartly points out that true talent is often neglected. However the entire first half is devoted to romance and songs including an unwanted bar song. D Imman’s music is top class and his BGM is terrific especially in second half. Vishnu as Jeeva has given a very good performance and since he has played cricket, the characterisation has come out well. Soori provides some laughs as a veteran fast bowler trying to make it.
‘Jeeva’ is sure to provide inspiration to many youngsters with similar cricket dreams and aspirations. On the whole, it is a nice entertaining film, and another feather on the director’s cap.
