Appathurai Ramasubban

Illogical screen play. From the beginning to the end u don't get involved in the movie. Sanjay Dutt wants to be menacing. But fails miserably. Ranbir's heroism does no good for him. Make up costume looks weird. Vani Kapoor role is wasted like everybody else's. If u ask who stands out in the movie. Oh yes! only crows and eagle. But you wonder what they are doing in the movie. They rise promptly to save the hero whenever he is in trouble. I feel sad for watching the movie simply because so much money had gone down the drain. Tend to believe that Telugu producers make better masala movies. Expected a better movie from this Director and the star cast.

Much expected from this movie. But very very disappointing. Unbelievable and unconvincing story line. Keerthy Suresh, the backbone of the story, most of the time have a stony expression. This movie wants to convey to you that a mother even when she is of timid nature will show courage and strength, if the well being of her child is involved. But this noble theme is not backed by a convincing tale and performance. This cooked up story falls flat, neither creates sympathy nor fear ( its thrilling crime story) in your mind. The only point which can be said to be good is the beautiful locations and camera work.

Penny wise and pound foolish is the theme of this movie. The hero of the movie is "Fatima Mahal" the haveli, where all the selfish and foolish characters live. The character of Mirza portraied by Amitabh is amazing. He has played this character to the perfection. Eighty percent of the job is done by his costume and the rest is done by his body language. In fact, it can be stated other way round also. The rest of the characters gives adequate support to the story. Screen play, Music and Direction are of Top Grade. So then what's lacking ? At times the movie fails to hold our interest. Finally, it is a must watch movie for the top notch acting, music, direction and the unexpected climax. The antique chair sold by Mirza for Rs.250 is priced at Rs.1,35,000 by the Antique dealer explains the theme of the movie. Rating : 4/5

Its is finely made movie. Very thrilling. There is no heroine, romance and songs. Tightly oven movie and sticking to the plot all the time. You will be to totally engrossed in the movie. Superb acting by the entire star cast, particularly karthi and Naren. Worth the watch.
