Filmybuzz opinion
Sriya in prostitute character excelled vey well. She moulded her body language as a prostitute. Sriya’s expressions are also good. Once again she proved that she is a good artiste. Saikumar did justice for MLA role. Sivaji performance in neagative roel is appreciated. Ravibabu, Roja, Kaushikk etc… performed according to their roles. Brahmanandam character is not upto the mark. Coming to the direction janardhan maharshi proved that he is a talented director through ‘Devasathanam’. Pavithra is also appreciated. But he is appreciated as a writer than the director. He has given a very good dialogues. But direction wise he should have taken much more care. Since he wanted to discuss more topics in the movie there was a consufision. Pavithra’s past and her entry into politics has no strong plot. Srilekha songs are average. Even background score is also not so good. With some drawbacks Pavithra may not able to get huge crowd. But the attempt for taking a prostitute story and questions raised referring the society should be appreciated.
