Review :

Yaakkai crime thriller film directed by Kuzhandhai Velappan, starring Krishna and Swathi Reddy in the leading roles. Featuring music composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja.

The film starts with an attention-grabbing scene that is a BMW is pushed off from the 24th floor of a hospital with the chairman Dr.Krishnamoorthy (Radha Ravi) inside. Now, at the ground, the murder is investigated by police officer Sahayam (Prakash Raj), who is a sincere and genuine cop. After hearing the news, the doctor’s son Shriram(Guru Somasundaram) return India from the US and came to know that there is some mystery in his dad’s death. This indicates that he is the baddie in this drama.

In the parallel track, there is an introduction to Kathir(Krishna), a Viscom student highly interested in photography. He then saw a girl Kavitha(Swathy Reddy) who is a school teacher at a bus stop talking with deaf and mute kids, and then, as usual, the instant love occurs. Suddenly, series of murders takes place from auto driver to hospital manager, and there is a twist that occurs in the interval that is Krishna is the murderer. How the two story coverage connects each other will form the rest.

Krishna as the hyperactive person with a permanent grin on his face did not create the right impact. Perhaps, the problem is with the characterization. Even Swathy’s character is not etched well. Prakash Raj as the investigative cop as usual proves his versatility. Guru Somasundaram – who was critically acclaimed for his performance in Joker – plays an American returned sophisticated guy and is a total miscast. The problem with the film is the weak screenplay and a bumpy narration. Yuvan Shankar Raj gave an awesome music to become the most outstanding music director.

Rating - 2.25/5
