The portrayal of the relationship between the two lead actors is also at the surface level and one could not help feeling for the scope for depth which has not been utilized. Secondly the script does not have the depth to justify the running time of more than two and a half hours. What if you are made to wait for several minutes to reveal something you have predicted within a jiffy? This is the most bothering aspect of the film. The contrasting characterization and the performances of the two lead actors makes us watch the film which is otherwise highly predictable and even touches the point of testing our patience at times. And special kudos for successfully dubbing in his own voice for the first time in Tamil and he has done this job far more convincingly. With a smile and a drop of a tear he could convey the emotions and make us root for him. The veteran has portrayed a paralysed person who does not seek compassion but a companion who shares his wavelength, with finesse.
The actor with his innate comic sense makes us laugh out loud in quite many instances and also wins plaudits with impeccable emotions.Įqual credit should go for Nagarjuna. The characterization of Karthi and his brilliant performance provides ample comedy and entertainment. The film has a touching emotional content that thankfully is largely underplayed and never touches melodrama. From then on it is a neat emotional tale between two men from drastically different backgrounds and facing different problems but connected by the affection for each other. The reason that makes Nag select Karthi for the job has been portrayed well and that makes a good impact in our minds.
The rest is how each of them helps the other in getting rid of their problems to live a happy and peaceful life.Īfter a usual start, the film picks up momentum when Karthi attends the interview to become the caretaker of Nagarjuna. On the other hand Seenu needs to prove his worth to his family members, to get their affection and respect. It is not the physical illness but excessive mental stress that is affecting Vikram as he could not come out of the memories of his past. Vikram instantly feels that Seenu is his perfect companion and a brotherly relationship starts developing between them. He becomes the fulltime caretaker of Vikramadhithya (Nagarjuna), a rich businessman who has been paralysed due to a near fatal accident. He has a strained relationship with his mother and siblings. Seenu (Karthi) comes out from jail on parole and he needs a job to prove himself harmless to the society. Let’s see how the film has justified the expectations.
The teaser and trailers with grand visuals have helped enhance the pre-release positive buzz. That the characters have been played by Tollywood super star and the ever charming Nagarjuna and Karthi who has is on a hat-trick of successes in Kollywood gives the much needed star value and public attention for the film. As the trailer suggested, the film is deals with a wealthy quadriplegic and his caretaker who comes from the straight opposite economic and social background. Within few weeks after the release of ‘Kadhalum Kadandhu Pogum’ the official remake of Korean film ‘My Dear Desperado’, here comes ‘Thozha’ the remake of French super hit film ‘The Intouchables’.
