Velaiyilla Pattathaari by Velraj (Review)



Story:An inspirational story of an unemployed youth and his achievements. Good mixture of drama, comedy, romance and action. It has a good plot and an excellent turning point which transforms the protagonist's life. A lot of good moral values instilled and some emotional scenes will definitely give goosebumps and brings tear to your eyes. A dedication to Engineering graduates of course.

Cast: Dhanush as Raghuvaran, an unemployed Civil Engineering graduate. Incredible acting skill. He was simply superb. He can shift from one emotion to another just like that. But I don't agree with his climax fight scene which had unnecessary element. Amala Paul as Shalini, Raghuvaran's lady love. Just a girl next door character too boost romance with hero. Nothing much to say. was supportive here and there. Samuthirakani as Raghu's dad. Superb performance. He fits the character very well, a persistent father as well as supportive. I can sense a lot paternal elements in his acting. well done. Saranya Ponvanan as Raghu's mother. She is the best mother in silver screen. Unbeatable. Awesome acting and mother sentiment is one of the highlight of the movie. There were a few supporting character played by Surabhi, Vivek and others.

Screenplay: The director has R.S. Durai Senthilkumar touch in his screenplay. I guess he included a lot reality of an unemployed youngsters routine. The fight scenes were quite realistic. I loved all the scenes involving Saranya Ponavanan and Dhanush. Awesome mother sentiment. Great dialogues. Comedy scenes were mostly involving  Dhanush and Vivek only shows up in second half. Good humour. The beauty of the movie is a lot of valuable messages were included about Family value and Career progress. Good inspirational scenes. But the climax was kind of lame. It was more like to show Dhanush Mass effect for the movie. Song clips were kind of stereotyped. But the choreography was good. But just like most Tamil movies it had too many songs cramped in short time. The best choreography was "what a karavad". Cinematography was average which was an irony since the director is a cinematographer.

Music: The music composed by Anirudh Ravichander, regardless of being chartbuster the BGM was kind of cliche'. I think he should try experimenting more. But soothing though. Amma Amma song will bring tears for sure.

Plus Point: Story, Screenplay, Music, Dialogue and Acting

Minus Point: Climax and BGM cliche.

Verdict: A wholesome entertainer to be watched in cinema.
