Aadhi Bhagavan by Ameer (Review)



*****Spoiler Alert*******************

Story: A thriller based on underground world. It's just a fusion of a few movie story. Lack of originality. Meant to be action packed thriller and romance but it was an epic fail because of its repetitive nature. The twist was not predictable but it was an usual twist. The director tried to bring difference in terms of character yet not good enough.

Cast: Jayam Ravi was the protagonist of the movie. Played dual role, as aadhi the underground business market dealer and Bhagwaan the Mumbai Don. Poor acting I would say. As Aadhi he didn't show that much of intelligence or power in his character. Not convincing at all. And Bhagwaan, as a sissy Mumbai Don. Seriously he overacted as a sissy. Then we have Neethu Chandra the lead lady. She had masculine approach in this movie. She did well in her role. Not the best but quite good actually.  Especially the fight sequence between her and Jayam Ravi, was well choreographed since she helds a black belt in Taekwando. Some supporting roles such as Subha Chandran as Jayam Ravi's Mom and Babu Antony as Aadhi's crime partner.

Screenplay: Technical aspects were poor. The technology is way advance to take dual role. Yet still they used the traditional way of playing around with camera angle. The plotting was too slow to be draggy in first half. This Ameer's work is disappointing after good movies like Mounam Pesiyadhe, Raam and Paruthi Veeran. Seems like he rushed to finish up the movie. The BGM was good. But the romance was too traditional and son craving for mom's love was like Amitabh Bachan age sentiment. Seriously Jayam Ravi as a sissy was poor makeover. Where people have seen well played feminine character like Kamal in Vishwaropam, people wont get convinced with Jayam Ravi's act. Even the stunt sequence were too much of close up so you wont feel the adrenalin rush in it. But there were 2 scenes impressed me. One was Jayam Ravi headshot his sister's boyfriend and the fight scene between Neethu Chandra and Jayam Ravi. Never scene a lead lady with a very good body language in fighting in any Tamil movie. It's an advantage for her since she is a Taekwando expert. Other than nothing special.

Music: Composed by Yuvan. Songs were average but the BGM was quite good.

Plus Point: BGM, Neethu Chandra and Jayam Ravi fight scene.

Minus Point: Lack of originality in story, Poor Technical work, Screenplay, Stunt.

Verdict: Don't watch at cinema. It's was an epic fail Mafioso Love story.
