Vettai - A Hunt With Hints
After 'Run'
almost ten years ago, director Lingusamy and Madhavan come together in a bid to
repeat the magic, this time with added strength. They have young and bubbly
Arya to their company.
A sibling
story, 'Vettai' promises plenty of action and emotion. Lingusamy has ensured
that his typical commercial elements find a place in 'Vettai' that proceeds in
quick pace with enough twists and turns.
Firstly,
the story is as old as the hill. Something we have seen since MGR days. But
Lingusamy has given a fresh coat to it. There are host of characters and events
unfold without a pause.
Gurumurthy
(Madhavan) and Thirumurthy (Arya) are brothers who are contrast to each other.
The former is shy and timid while the latter is bold and takes things by its
horns.
Their
father is a police officer. After his demise, a reluctant Guru is forced to
take up the job. Thiru assures him all help. He even goes to the extent of
working undercover and helps his brother emerge successful in fighting goons.
There is
Vasanthi (Sameera), a talkative village belly who marries Guru. Her sister
Jayanthi (Amala Paul) falls for Thiru and his mannerisms.
Meanwhile
there is one Annachi (Asutosh Rana), an embodiment of evil in the town. He
takes cudgels against Guru. Now Thiru steps in to set things right. At one
point, coward Guru is prepared to face all challenges. How the two brothers
join hands to eliminate Annachi forms the rest.
Madhavan is
at his best playing a timid youth. He seems to share a good rapport working
with Lingusamy and it is evident on screen. Arya is appealing. His vibrant
energy adds strength to his character. At places, his character seems to
resemble the one that he did in 'Boss Engira Baskaran'.
Amala Paul
and Sameera Reddy share equal screen space. Three cheers to Nirav Shah.
The man behind the lens has done a commendable job. He has captured the village
with all its beauty. The soft lens speaks poetry. Equally impressive are the
stunt sequences captured by his camera. Yuvan Shankar Raja's songs are just
adequate.
Produced by
Thirupathi Brothers and released by UTV Motion Pictures, 'Vettai' is a cliched
path traveled by Lingusamy. But the right packaging of commercial elements with
apt star cast makes it count.
If you are
ready to forget all logic and want to enjoy a masala movie this festive season,
head on to 'Vetta
