Thillalangadi (Tamil)

Cast: Jayam Ravi, Tamannah, Shaam, Radha Ravi, Vadivelu, Santhanam

Direction: M Raja

Krishna (‘Jayam’ Ravi) is always determined to get a kick out of life and does all kinds of things, most of it is pretty uncool, which is initially slow off but picks up in the second half. This is another Telugu-to-Tamil remake from director Raja, and is based on ‘Kick’, which was a big hit with Ravi Teja in the original because of his sense of comic timing. The interludes with Jackson (Vadivelu) are for comedy in Kollywood, and sure you will feel to laugh. She then shares a train ride with Krishna Kumar (Shaam). When she eventually fell in love with Krishna but having declared her love, parted from him.

Krishna robs the politicos and the mystery of the December 16 deadline are well executed by the director in the last 20 minutes of the movie. Tamannah does what is expected of her, while Radha Ravi as the health and later home minister makes you smile. On the whole this movie have fetched the laughs but falls flat.
