Roughly translates into, Was this not that you desired, Balakumara?
In 1978, during Vinayaga Chaturthi, I had wanted my father to reserve for the Kamal Hassan blockbuster, Sattam En Kayil, instead he brought tickets for Mullum Malarum. I was upset, had half a mind not see Mullum Malarum. After seeing Mullum Malarum, I could feel that Rajinikanth, the star had arrived.
In the case of Vijay Sethupathy, I have now seen and enjoyed all his films till date and I was able to accept and appreciate him as an actor. But today, Vijaya Sethupathy as "Sumar Moonji Kumar(Ordinary Faced Kumar), the antics of endearing vagabond amalgamated with verbal chatter and tomfoolery almost meandering without any direction was able to improvise and dish out inexplicable magic as the movie progressed, especially towards the end. Sheer magic to be experienced. Vijay sethupathy is already has established himself as a star with a huge fan following, including a lot female following including my daughter who are upset that he is already married!!!! The Good News: This Star is here to stay!!!
Not bad for an actor who started his career as an Accountant at the venerable Koothu-P-Pattarai
A great cameo by M.S. Bhaskar is another standout.
This probably one of the first comic adaptations of Amorres Perres, with three stories intertwined by an accident. Creative, painstakingly constructed, but the plethora of characters builds discreteness to the narrative, and you are therefore left with laughs in spells.
We have another capable director who has the thinking cap on and am sure he will learn from this experiment and go on to make good and better films.
