Director: N Sundareswaran.
The story is about four friends and one of them sacrifices his life for the sake of friendship. Premji, Vijay Vasanth, and Nitin Sathya are close friends. Ajay Raj, who is out to avenge the killing of his younger sister by her boyfriend, also joins these friends. In this situation, a rowdy’s daughter, Jennifer, loves Ajay, but he does not reciprocate. He has to first kill the person who cheated his sister and took her life. When it is known that it is Nitin Sathya who is the culprit, Ajay picks up an ’aruval’ and rushes to confront Nitin. In the meantime, Nitin hires a mercenary paying him Rs 5 lakes to kill Ajay. The friends are divided and the outcome of the clashes between them forms the climax.
Premji who is naughty and mischievous, Vijay Vasanth who is exhuberant, and Nitin who gives life for friendship demonstrate by their performances what heroism is. In "Chennai-28", Premji missed a catch in a cricket match evoking laughter. In "Thozha" he deserves a pat for not missing out on comedy. A marriage feast is turned into a comedy fest when starving Premji and Vijay go to a wedding for eating posing as important guests and get caught.
Ajay makes the viewers feel the pain and pressure when he learns that it is one of his friends, Nitin, who killed his sister. The scene where jobless Premji tears up his degree certificate in frustration melts the hearts. Nitin brings his character alive. He emotes well and evokes sympathy in sequences where he is pictured as one whose death is near. This sympathy factor also works against him. Jennifer, Lakshna and Sahithya lend glitz and glamour to the proceedings.
V.A. Murthy plays a comedian and his double-meaning dialogues are hilarious. . His shout of "Saroja Saman Nikkalo" when a bucket overflows with water under a tap takes the cake. Babylona appears as his wife Saroja. Music is by Premji and his tunes are sprightly. Too many sub-plots diffuse the focus. The director himself seems confused and brings the climax to an abrupt end foisting five murder cases on Nitin who is already in the jaws of death. However, the film is not a total disappointment.
