Veyil
Pasupathy stands apart and has done one of his finest performances. I was able to see Murugasen and Dhool Pasupathy wasn't seen in any shades. That’s the success of the actor and has to be rewarded with applause. The body language and the facial expressions were adorable. His eyes speak more than his dialogues. Pasupathy coming from Koothupattari was introduced in the film Mayan and later came into lights in Dhool. When I saw him Dhool, I thought for a moment that this guy does well but has mixed himself into the masala of Tamil movies. This would be his role in future assignments. As expected he was doing similar kind and was seen as the usual commercial villains. But when watched Maja, I had the ray of hope that this guy would come back. He did finally in a fabulous way. Though not that he has to leave completely his commercial roles but has to do more similar roles to feed his actor in him.
With above said the second person who has to be appreciated is the director "Vasantha Balan". Though the movie might not be an outright commercial success but has marked his entry with a optimistic note. The screenplay and the story telling are aptly done. I wonder how being an assistant director of Shankar who does everything in a big way was able to script such an innate script. The script doesn't have any artificial gimmicks in it nor has costly backdrop. The play just goes on with the way story goes and it’s very natural. He has his tribute to his guru by giving such a good movie.
Shankar as a producer and director is equally successful. He is able to pick up the best and different plays\directors. As a producer he contradicts himself with his direction. Kadhal, Imsai Arasan and now Veyil all are of different genres but natural and fresh. This makes him as an eminent producer and S pictures adding victorious movies to its accolades. One more point to be said is he hasn't let down any of his assistant director with whom he has the confidence. That’s a true leadership to backup his team and see them in heights. He has given them the opportunities and so do his assistants by grabbing & making best of it. Expecting more such different movies from S Pictures and showing a new trend in production.
Bharath is refining his acting skills in every film and emerging out to be a matured actor. But he doesn't have much to do as Pasupathy occupies the entire film. Bhavana has done the usual heroine role and she looks damn pretty. I am not sure of the heroine name; she appears for few scenes pairing with Pasupathy and dies. She has to be pinned up as expected to do some pretty neat roles in future. She is peppy and her expression attracts the audience. Shreya has done her supporting role well and after Thimiru, once again proved her acting skills.
Music and camera work are neatly done. With so much new comers in the backend still the film doesn't lack in any quality. Altogether the movie is an emotional drama with fresh breeze in it.
