Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe slum shown in this film is actually a set work done by the Ace Art Director T. Muthuraj done over 7.5 acres of land. And another interesting thing is that the over bridge shown behind the slum was actually built using the materials needed to build an exact original bridge- only thing being only a portion of the bridge was built and rest was filled up by CGI. And any trees found in the slum was actually brought and grown in the slum to give a realistic feel to the slum. Even the waste products and dumpings in the slum are real waste brought from a dumpyard to give the realistic feel.
- Alternate versionsThe UK release was cut, the distributor chose to remove scenes of strong violence and injury detail in order to obtain a 12A classification. An uncut 15 classification was available.
Featured review
The intend of the entire crew is good and the message tried to deliver is new and novel. Absolutely no doubt about the intentions and thought process is really admirable.
Too many good characters but given very limited space. Siva's space should have been sliced out to other characters to throw more weight-age on the story telling. Unfortunately Director has failed on that aspect of planning. Moreover, movies should rely more on script, screenplay , story telling and content delivery. In those lines this is very mediocre typical commercial movie.
I wanted to rate 7, but with the quality movies Tamil Cinema has been producing lately its tough to rate as a good movie.
