It’s your quintessential household drama with all of the acquainted beats and it’s largely salvaged by the presence of 1 man, Vijay, who does all of the heavy lifting and makes this a reasonably participating watch.

Having predominantly labored in motion movies lately, it was refreshing to see Vijay have enjoyable in an out-and-out household flick.

The familial moments, particularly scenes between Vijay and Jayasudha (who performs the mom) work considerably in an in any other case largely predictable movie. For the household drama angle to have labored much more successfully, the battle between the brothers ought to’ve been much more stronger.
