Finally, the movie becomes a comedy, the best of all its avatars. The last 15 minutes leave you in splits — Rajendran’s mere presence evokes laughter. Just like someone moves from job to job before finally discovering what he’s good at, the film at last manages to identify its trump card.
Vishwa’s struggle to shed a tear following the death of his father in the beginning is a great touch. But you realise that Caarthick Raju’s real strength is comedy. A Ramarajan-style punch quite early in the film (where the fist passes through face after face leaving behind a trail of fallen bodies) signals this. The climax sequences confirm it. You’re happily willing to suspend all disbelief when the scenes are as funny as they are at the end.
