However, the subject of the much-anticipated movie may be a little too familiar for Tamil audiences.
Next, protagonist Ram Nandhan (Ram Charan), a policeman-turned-bureaucrat on his way to his posting at Vishakhapatnam, is introduced to viewers in a dramatic fight scene.
In the second half of the movie, Satyamurthy dies and, in his will (a video recording), appoints Ram as the next chief minister, surprising everyone, including his own sons.
But due to Subbanna’s stuttering, Satyamurthy speaks on the former’s behalf and becomes the candidate for chief minister instead.
Back to the present, Mopi uses “politricks” (politics and tricks) to steal Ram’s chief minister post.
Positives
The former effortlessly tackled action, comedy and dancing scenes, showcasing his versatility. But what will be memorable to viewers is his acting as village leader Subbanna, who struggles to speak without stuttering.
Suryah impressed as Mopi, a power-crazy, greedy politician who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. His dialogue delivery livened up the second half of the movie.
Anjali gave a noteworthy performance as Parvathy, Subbanna’s wife and Ram’s mother. Srikanth did well as the guilt-conscious chief minister Satyamurthy. Kiara, as Ram’s love interest Deepika, delighted in a brief appearance, but Samuthirakanni’s role was just too small for his talent.
Music composer S. Thaman’s songs were riveting, the cinematography and visuals were stunning.
The song Lyraanna did not make the final cut, but it was eventually included in the movie on Pongal this year due to demand from fans.
Given the director’s numerous hits, perhaps expectations were just too high.
Furthermore, the flow of the story is somewhat disjointed with constant scene jumps. The first half of the movie felt too rushed.
Comedic actors Sunil, Vennela Kishore and Brahmanandam could have been cut out without the movie losing much. We felt only Jayaram’s comedy seems relevant to the storyline.
Ultimately entertaining
Audiences will walk away thinking about the neglect of law by those in power, while also being mesmerised by the high-quality production.
The grand visuals, thrilling action scenes involving Ram and emotional performances are all reasons to watch this film, despite its shortcomings.
