It is when the setting shifts from small-time spot fixing in cricket matches (in the first half) to roulette in Goa (in the second) that the film takes a sudden turn for the worse. Instead of tightly written set pieces that explore various probabilities of intuition — how about scenes that show him mastering his skill? — the director floods us with a barrage of underdeveloped characters, all failing to make an impact. This includes M.S. Bhaskar, Manobala, Taapsee Pannu and even the much-hyped cameo of Kokki Kumar (Pudhupettai) by Dhanush.
As I walk out of the theatre, I can’t help but feel that her second film too suffers from bipolar disorder.
