(Sorry if you are not a Tamil movie afficionado)

Finally an average Tamil movie that is enjoyable. The shaming thing though is that it had to be directed by a Malayalee. In fact, the Malayalees are the new hope for the film industry in Chennai. All the heroines nowadays are from there - including Asin, the heroine of this one. All the side-roles in this movie are Malayalees.

The good thing about Asin though is that she is not merely the pretty face (which some of our other leading ladies dont even have), but also acts! Acts quite well in fact.

All Vikrams are good actors (ahem!) and ever since Sethu, Vikram has progressively become better. His excellent performance in Anniyan (means Stranger, Alien or Foreigner) is appreciated in this movie in one of those sublime messages incorporated in the dialogues.

Manivannan and Pasupathi, along with Vikram, are quite a lot of Majaa (means Fun). I dont know what role Director Shafi played in the scripting of the dialogues, but they were quite well done. An attention to detail, a realistic simplicity paralleling Kamal's movies is found in this movie's dialogues. I enjoyed the movie.
