About :

Director Ahmed’s second movie after Vamanan. When compare to his to earlier movie he scores double in this. Movie is very neatly scripted and very nice cataloguing shown about friendship, Love, Relation between Father and Son. For Jivaa, this is one of his best movies and done a great job. Vinay, effortless acting and done as what director wants. Santhanam’s one liner rocks completely. However he should stop making comedies at the cost of others. Nearly for the past 10 years one heroine who rules kollywood is non other than Trisha, she looks still the same and she is absolute gorgeous. After a long time a very good role for Nassar and he done with the perfection. When we speak about music, Harris music is good in this but many seems to repetitive. One more strong positive is Cinematography, Madhi has done extremely awesome job and foreign location is shoot is a visual delight for every eyes. Director could have decrease the drinking scenes as there are many scenes from start to end. Overall it is worth to watch.

Verdict : Endrendrum Punnagai – Dont Miss !

Plot:

The movie kicks off with Venkat Prabhu’s Brand line “a Venkat Prabhu Diet” which is written in a barricade. Karthi ( Sugan ) and Premgi ( Parasu ) is chased by police, there the flash back starts. Both were friends from Childhood, Karthi a charismatic and striking hunk who makes all the girls he see to fell with him instantly. On the other hand nothing works out for Premgi. Hansika ( Priyanka ) a gorgeous girl friend of Karthi work as a Media reporter. In an Alcoholic party hosted by Panch Subbu ( brother in law of Karthi ) where he was obsessed by Dharika which in turn spotted by Hansika and as usual there is small misunderstanding fight between them. This scene may remind you Pancha Thanthiram. Both Karthi and Premgi travel to Ambur for an inaugural of their company’s new showroom. The chief guest  at the Inaugural ceremony is  Varadharajan ( Nazzar ) a big business tycoon, who is also suspected of several illegal dealings and the same is investigated by CBI officer Sampth ( Riaz Ahmed ).  There Karthi happened to take an interview with Nazzar who in turn impressed with him and has a idea to tie a knot between Karthi and his second daughter. This gives more irritation to Nazzar’s first son in law Ramki.

On the return journey, Karthi insists Premji  for eating Biriyani and they search for it. There they finds a road side Biriyani shop. Here they meet a scorching Maya ( Mandy Takhar ) who insists to accompany her in her hotel room. Initially Karthi refuses, but over a point of time both were unable to resist the temptation and agrees to accompany her. After Several rounds of Alcohol they both are perplexed. When Karthi woke up in the morning, he was at a utter shock and seems him sleeping in his car alone in a highway. When he tries to recollect, he was not able to remember anything. So he again travels to the same beach resort in search of Premji, there he finds him and one more shock is added here, as Nazzar was murdered during that night. From there they start to escape from police who thought both of them murdered Nazzar. However both of them confused on how this murder has happened? What is exactly happened in that night ? who is behind this murder ? form the rest of the story.

About :

Venkat Prabhu is illustrious for his ground-breaking thinking in his Flicks like Chennai 28, Saroja, Goa and Mankatha comes with his Diet in Biriyani. When we weigh against with his previous movies, he tries to give a racy murder mystery. However it may not be a implausible due to the weak spot in detail on the scenes of removing the suspense knots. My sense is, he should stop using the same characters ( like Nithin Sathya, Vaibhav, Jai, Aakash ) even though they come in a guest manifestation. This seems to monotonous and he need to experiment apart from it. Apart from all these things, we should appreciate Director astuteness on moving the screenplay without a gripping story. Karthi has done a fabulous job when compare to his previous flops. To everyone’s surprise Premgi is sharing equal space from start to end. Even in the hot song he is present. But the chemistry works for both of them. At the same time he was cornered which is highly repetitive. No big work for Hansika, she comes around five to six scenes. Uma Riaz has got a good rough and tough role and fulfils the same. Other characters like Nazzar, Ramki, Subbu, Sampath, JP exactly done what director wants. Yuvan’s 100^th movie, BGM adds value and three songs are good, but when compare to Mankatha this movie is of low standard to Yuvan.  

Overall we can definitely watch, when we forget about logics in few scenes

Verdict : Biriyani – It is only a Spicy Kuska !!!!!

About :

Second movie from Director Saravanan Engayum Eppodhum fame. Again he has taken a good subject on Social Interest with a Super hero attached to it. When we compare it with his debut flick this movie lacks on screenplay, some of the scenes seems to be more cinematic. The story is the inspiration of an Law college incident happened in Chennai. One good thing even though he tries to show Vikram Prabhu as an super hero, on the other side he equally shared the screen presence to Villain Vamsi Krishna.  Even though this may not be a great movie to saravanan, you will not get uninterested. Surabhi is a good choice and looks like a doll. She has a very good scope for her role and the complete second half revolves around her. Music Director Sathya has again done a good job, re-recording and songs are good.  Editing and Cinematography also adding value. Overall nothing wrong in watching this movie. But don’t have any expectation like Engayum Eppodhum !!!

Verdict : Ivan Vera Mathiri – Book your tickets for your complete Family !!!!

This movie is all about friendship, revenge & Love. You all got the answer ! Yes this movie it typically like Subramaniyapuram and a mix of Renigunda, Thoonga Nagaram, Goripalayam, but with one interesting twist at the end. Four Orphan friends Saravanan (Arulnidhi) , Pazhani (Sulile Kumar), Senthil (Pawan) and Aarumugam (Murugadoss) from infancy who doesn’t have any job except pilfering and always boozing. Poorna appears as Arulnidhi’s girl friend who is a daughter of Local High Interest Money lender Jayaprakash ( Kandhuvetti Rajenderan ). When things we going fine, all the four happened to lock in to a dispute with a local rowdy and he revenges to murder them.

Finally they come to know, all the three is not the accused and there is some other person behind this execution forms the climax with a twist.

About :

Movie is directed by Debutant Ganesh Vinayaac who has given an average debut flick. The story is of as usual kind and only climax is bit different. Also don’t understand why people always portraying Madurai City as a negative place with full of local rowdies, Local Knife fights with cold blooded murders etc etc.. Again too much of boozing scenes in this movie. Nevertheless there is no point in putting a small disclaimer in all boozing scenes. Censor board should be very strict on all these things. This movie is definitely not for children and family and people should avoid taking them. Mayil Swamy has done a tiny character as usual in a intoxicated condition, but has a decent comedy. Nothing much on songs and background score. The movie is very average and will not fly high in A & B centres and very doubtful in Cities. After Mouna Guru, had a high expectation on Arul Nidhi, but he fails to impress the audience this time.

Verdict : Thagararu – Mix of Old Flavours
