But there are plenty of tense moments, thanks to the deliberate pacing (that steers clear of cheap, amped-up thrills) and the fact that the film keeps zooming in on a small cast of characters. Everyone’s important in the larger scheme of things, even the army wife whom Madhu lives with. She has no problem with Vettri dropping in to see Madhu, and this is another way the movie’s milieu is established, rather than explained. Thegidi is proof that if the small things are worked out well, the bigger ones will take care of themselves.
