Performances

Naveen Chandra is getting better with each film. He as a cop handles the situation quite well. His tense emotions and the way he portrays them are very good. Madhoo played a senior cop and was neat.

Analysis

The film is the remake of Dejavu and some shots are used as it is. The director fails to create the tense atmosphere throughout the film. Things start making sense when Naveen Chandra makes an entry. The beginning and the way the plot is established is not clear. The viewers will have so many doubts regarding the plot.

The film also suffers from logical issues and has some threads unanswered. The manner in which the hero goes about handling the case looks a bit over the top. There is no upliftment of the conflict in the film as the main thread had a lot of potential but it is not etched well for the audience to enjoy.

The best part of the film is the music by Ghibran. His BGM was wow. The visuals are neat and most of the scenes are obtained from the original. Director Arvindh has his task cut out and the storyline he chose was good. But his execution was below par and makes this film a half baked thriller and nothing new to showcase.

Bottom Line – Half Baked Thriller
