Not just in one aspect, does the film really make us appreciate it. Not many directors do succeed making their film directly without any experience. Mani Rathnam did remain as an exceptional as he didn't work as assistant director and commence his directorial venture. His mantra of success was proper planning and the rigid them he had in each of his flicks. Well, on the contrary goes, debutant Kalaprabhu who starts off with his debut film that completely makes so no sense. "Why does he make such a rubbish film? we can better watch a TV series of women lamenting all the time instead", says one such audiences who was sitting beside us. Indeed, after getting to listening to their laudable comments of multiplex audiences, we could imagine what would have been the feedbacks of 'B' and 'C' centre.

Nothing new in the story for it's a triangular love story of Yuvaraj (Shanthanu) falling in love with a girl Deepali (Ishitha), he sees on the roadside and the very next day you find both of them joining the same college. Meanwhile, Yuvaraj's cousin girl Reema (Vedhika) makes her entry and immediately falls in love with him. Fine! There isn't much to carry on more with this clichéd story has lots of annoying aspects carried along throughout the entire film.

Debutant Kalaprabhu seems to have watched many Bollywood flicks of Karan Johar and Yash Chopra as he tries to bring in their touch. But that's completely a blemish attempt that goes flimsy. Better to watch the remake films that other directors make rather than straining themselves.

Probably, Bhagyaraj should have encouraged his son to imitate Bollywood stars Shah Rukh Khan and Ranbir Kapoor. Hey! They are so naturalistic and they don't strain themselves in rendering their performance with finesse. This young lad keeps irritating us with his uttering of dialogues in the American slang and he is an amateur and so does the entire team other than A.R. Rahman.

The maestro strides with scintillating tunes and background scoring. The songs are good to listen, but adding unwanted computer generated works are really a clumsiest part of work. Especially for song like 'Chinnamma Chilakamma', why should he bring in the concept of Van Helsing. 'Taxi  Taxi' is the one such thing that proves of entertaining aspects for youngsters as they start applauding for it. If the song had been placed in the title or else somewhere, everyone would have moved out of theatres. But, Kalaprabhu reveals of his brilliancy in placing the song before climax.

The climax is so rubbish as it fails to have an impact on the audiences and there are no aspects that makes appreciate Kalaprabhu, other than one thing. Roping in A.R. Rahman to score music….

Verdict: Watch it at your own risks…
