Nothing positive, I could think about the movie, ‘Tashan’, much hyped before its release. This movie is such a crap, I have seen in recent times. As Masand rightly pointed out, sleeping audience wake up only at the kareena’s bikini scene. Director cleverly placed this scene few minutes before the interval, so that the audience at least won’t miss snacks, the only refreshment. I just wonder how people, whoever involved in making, do not visualize their rubbish thoughts before bringing into the screen. If they do, surely they get long laugh at their creative work. Not like ‘Race’, which had pace and twists in screenplay, ‘Tashan’ fails to connect with scenes. If you really want to know, what will happen when four sick and nuts characters meet, there is a way to ‘Tashan’. And remember that you pay for a terrible headache.
Though ‘Santhosh subramanium’ is a remake from Telugu, ‘Bommarillu’, the movie stays in fresh form. Director Raja proved again that he is good at remaking. Watching SS is truly a joyful experience. This movie takes audience along with the flow. The special mention in the movie is Genelia. Simple traits in the movie, like holding a tea cup, phone talk, horn sentiment etc. are beautifully told. Let that be a friendship or love or family relation, everything is eye catching. Watching SS matches with the experience of having ‘vennila milkshake with icecream on top’ for the summer heat.
They say that the movie, ‘yaaradi nee mohini’ is commercially hit. Perhaps true, as it is a mixture of different aromas to make it as a masala package. But the proportion of mixing was not proper, which I felt. Many amateur scenes let the audience to laugh at the scenes, instead to take along with it. For example, the hero studies the java program and build a successful project over the night are the height of sick imagination. Could not believe that the story is from one of the somber directors in Tamil cinema. This movie promises sluggish story with funny screenplay.
In ‘Arai en 305il kadavul’, Simbuthevan tried to give an image to his non-materialistic thoughts. The crux of the movie is that what if, God appears in front of you. Sounds interesting, but he failed a bit to present able-bodied. It’s a full length fun story. Director’s take on common men’s lifestyle, foolish religious sentiments etc. are well established in the screen. And the narration of how small we human being are fresh thoughts. In the second part, movie travels in very stagnant mode, which could be pierced better. All negatives apart, can watch once for the director’s odd attempt.
