“Really liked the film a lot,” Ashwin had said while discussing the movie. The movie was very captivating. It’s really popular these days to watch a movie without using a phone. I watched this movie without using my phone at all. Truly amazing performance from Vikram (Prabhu), Akshay (Kumar), and the whole ensemble. It didn’t seem to be a hero’s movie at all because of the way each character was developed. It seemed to be everyone’s film. It was lovely. “Refreshing for Tamil movies!”
