Soodhu kavvum

Over the last two years, Tamil Cinema, has consistently produced at least 30 good films with little or no star power. The screenwriter and the technicians have been firmly in grip. Not  sure if Bollywood or Hollywood have attempted so many quality films without stars.

Soodhu Kavvum, is one such effort, with the screen writer working overtime to give us pure and unadulterated entertainment. While the story seems to skirt along similar themes in the past, the screenwriter keeps the viewer surprised till the end. 

The movie while being hilariously tense with its zany characters and plot, is peppered with a lot of creativity,  great music and BGM from Santosh Narayanan. Ever since I have heard Santosh in Attakthi I am a great fan of his. While the Sax is joyous and you get to hear it in the background, he freaks out with the Gana and Rap mix and then surprises you with the out of the world, MGR "Thathuva padal"(Philosophy) song in the end. 

I think professionals in all walks of life may learn from the Tamil Film Technicians, who continue to set new standards of excellence.

Way to go.
