Desingu Raja....


 Another movie based on rural comedy from Director Ezhil after Manamkothi Paravai. The casting includes Vemal(previously Vimal), Bindhu Madhavi, Ravi Mariya, Producer Gnanavel, Parota Soori, Singam Puli, Vinu Chakravarthy. The director has again used Soori, Singampuli and Ravi Mariya from his Manamkothi Paravai. Vemal and Bindhu Madhavi make their second on screen appearance following Kedi Billa Killadi Ranga. The story is about the feud between two families of two different villages. The initial few minutes of the movie gave a feel of watching Vamsam directe'd by Pandiraj. But as the story moves, feud between the two families turns into a comedy fight. Idhayakani(Vemal) falls in love with Thamarai(Bindhu Madhavi) who is the daughter his family enemy Gnanavel. Gnanavel is always looking to kill Vemal, as Vemal's grandfather(Vinu Chakravarthy) kills Gnanavel's son. But the main reason for the fight between these families starts with kottapakku(Supari). The story was little confusing for me too, but it took few minutes to regain what is happening over the screen. There is not much to reveal about the story, but if I narrate it, you will probably start abusing me. So, there is nothing much to worry about the screenplay too. The story goes with Vemal and Bindhu Madhavi love and marriage, leading to death of her father, Bindhu and her Chittapa(Ravi Mariya) taking revenge for her father's death. The scene, in which everyone comes to know that Bindhu is pregnant immediately after her wedding, loses to convey what would be the aftermath effects in a family. Also few scenes were abrupt and usual. The second half totally goes into comedy mood which towards the end of the movie irritates the audience sometimes. Vemal's idea of arranging cheergirls in a kabaddi match, to cool his enemies was good. The director lost his flow towards end of the film. It seemed that he somehow wanted to finish the film and hand it over to the producer. But the climax of the movie, will be unpredictable by anyone. Vemal, well known for his village roles in the past did his role with utmost perfection. But next time he must more careful while choosing the script. Bindhu Madhavi, as usual is beautiful and charming. Her natural naughty wits are her good strength. She is getting younger in every of her movie. The movie moves with comedy track of Soori and Singampuli, who are Bindhu Madhavi and Vemal' relatives respectively. Soori with his timing dialogues and body language, makes us feel better while watching the movie. Singampuli with his innocent look and funny gestures helps in moving the scenes that doesn't include Soori. The scenes including these both were crafted with care to cover the audience. Some scenes which includes Soori, Singampuli and Ravi Mariya gets the whole theatre into laughter. Soori and Singampuli single handedly carry the movie on their shoulders. Ravi Mariya, who is shown as villain turns into a comedy villain as the movies goes on. Chams was good too, that he makes the audience to feel about sitting in the theatre. Songs by D.Imman were good, that it doesn't make the audience to move out for a smoke or phone call, which usually happens in movies when songs are not good. Ammadi song by Shreya Ghosal was pleasant to the ears. Folk numbers like Nelavattam sung by Unnikrishnan and Oru ora Paarvai by Balram were entertaining. Yugabarathi's lyrics syncs very well with the film's  phase. Sooraj's camera shows the villages with no taste of urban scent. Especially the temple festival song shows the happenings, which we would have experienced in our village. Overall the film is a total family entertainer, for those who doesn't care that much about the story, but wants to have a full length laughter session.
