I watched this film only recently. Nagesh acted well,but the heroine outscored him in all departments. I have been lucky to watch one of the best performances of Nagesh(as a hero).Only his acting in Server Sundaram came close to this one.The last emotional sequences before the climax was touching.And the dialogues and the situations shine in the film.The cast did admirably well with Muthuraman and Manorama shining in cameo roles.Major Sundarrajan did decent job although it is shade inferior to his performance in "Major Chandrakanth".Anyways,it was a joy to just see him act!!There were some pitfalls in the film ,one being the house-owners believing Nagesh is rich.My major grouse in the film however was the drama-like feel at times.Examples being the death scene of Irumal Thata and some of the dialogues.Also songs seemed a bit forced like Seidi Ketto.Some sequences were too short,for example how Nagesh end up being hurt by his friends.But overall,the film was funny,with some social message thrown in occasionally. Verdict: Decent time-pass experience. Rating : 2.8/5(Satisfactory).
