Director Ganesh K. Babu can be praised for portraying the thought of a young man who is immersed in the irresponsibility of Vidal age, living alone and raising a child to become a responsible and self-reliant man. Without relying on cinematic clichés, this debutant director has moved the screenplay closer to the nature by giving importance to the need of the story and the emotions of the characters.
Mass cinema elements like songs, comedy, fight scenes are used sparingly and beautifully. The way the emotional scenes are written and the actors’ contribution to them is a major strength of the film. But the big problem is that logical questions keep arising from the very beginning of the film. The heroine’s decision not to terminate the fetus despite being a student reinforces the reactionary thinking against abortion. There are also some verses based on the male-centric view of women.
The question arises as to why the poverty-stricken hero and heroine did not seek the government hospital. There is no good reason for the hero and heroine to separate after the birth of the child and not to meet after the separation. The second half moves a bit more interestingly with the IT office suites. But even in those scenarios, logical fallacies crop up. Overcoming these flaws, the emotional finale is touching.
Gavin, Aparna Das, Ilan who comes as a child, Pradeep Antony, the young man who plays a rich friend who gives a shoulder to Gavin, and office colleague Pradeep Antony are suitable choices for the role. Both K. Bhagyaraj and Aishwarya as the hero’s parents leave their stamp of experience even though they appear only in a few scenes. After a long time, VTV Ganesh also has a dignified character.
Welcome to composer Jen Martin. All the four songs complement the need of the script beautifully. The background music doesn’t skimp either. Features such as cinematography and art direction have also made a good viewing experience possible. This film, which emphasized that child-rearing is also the responsibility of men, could have had a better impact if it had avoided logical errors and retrospection.
