    Waste of time

    There is nothing in this to specifically mention as it fails to connect to the audience in everywhich way. Definitely could not watch in theater because of it's lousy script and poor acting performances. Not a single scene was nicely done to talk of. In short, it feels like a mixture of all the films released in that genre. Director tried too hard to create that action packed atmosphere that nothing works at the end.

    I honestly fell asleep during the initial 30-40 minutes of the film.

    Not recommended for anyone as it just spoils the mood and rhythm of one's well being. Anasuya as Varun Sandesh's mother actually sums it up pretty much.

    Soulless gangster movie...Don't get fooled by the cast

    RATED 5/10 Language: Tamil Source: Nil Media Partner: Aha

    The movie is so stylish and the cast is awesome. Other than that there is nothing else, big empty in all aspects. It is not even close to the director's previous venture.

    At least i was expecting the romantic portions are watchable, but that also ended as so dull and nothing new in it. Another big letdown is that lot of scenes reminds the making and dialog of KGF.

    There is some climax twist and added nice touch to the story, but we cant sit throughout the movie for that climax scene alone.

    A very good opportunity wasted...Don't get fooled by the cast.

    A Bitter Sweet(life) success for Ranjith jeykodi...!!!

    Korean high octane bloody revenge saga is swapped with minor changes in characterization ...Though director cunningly swapped the character's he doesn't spoil the soul of the plot & the making arguably reminds of the making style of Arun madheswaran.... Sundeep kishan does get a meaty role and he does justice keeping the plot intact .. Gautam menon's subtle performance fails to induce the fear for a deadly gangster could have choosed a better actor coz most of his dialogues are the one that keeps the hope live of his character....2nd half portions has some unexpected twists that saves the movie... Overall a one-time watchable flick to kick out ur time.

    What is this ?

    Absolutely rubbish film...the hero needs sundeep needs to come back to earth he has merely 10 pages of dilagoue half the movie he is walking with chicken legs and beating up 100 goons. It's a 90s film Era yet again hero wearing slim fit pants and hairstyle of today time. Romba than over . Mr sundeep neenga avolo worth illai time irukku for mass hero script vayaum suthuvum mooditu calm down. The only saving grace was vijay sethupathi and varalakhsmi epic cameo. Story bakwas screenplay nonsense gautham menon avana mookala koothonom . Waste of time avoid at all cost. Gave 5 stars only for vijay sethupathi and varalaksmhi.

    A treat for insomniacs.

    Me and my wife watching this movie on TV last night. I vaguely remember we were only 20mins into the movie, we both went in deep sleep on the couch itself. I don't get to sleep easily and my wife is so happy that she found medicine for my insomnia.

    Thanks to the directors and producers of this movie, this is a great breakthrough in medical science. I would recommend this movie to play in all medical colleges for research purpose.

    Whoever finishes this movie without taking a nap, that person can be named in book of Guinness records. All thanks to the director who made this wonderfully cliche and artistically routine film I have ever experienced.
