But in the second half, the laughs dry up. The main reason is that the scenes outstay their welcome, and feel stretched — like the entire election episode, and Muthupandi and Saravanan’s trip to Delhi. Given that Maya is treated more as a glamour doll, the film loses a great opportunity to have been a unique romcom about two people who are a generation apart in terms of age. The only ambition here is to be a mildly diverting comedy, and in that Venkatt succeeds partially.
