Story
Das (Vijay Sethupati) and his three friends Sekhar (Ramesh), Pagalvan (Simhaa) and Kesavan (Ashok Selvan) are jobless jacks. One day Das and his friends plan to get a huge amount by kidnapping local politician’s (CJ Bhaskaran) son Prakasham. After kidnapping Arumai Prakasham they will face many problems in the form of terrific police. Handling and overcoming all the hurdles in this expedition form the core part of the movie.
Performances
Vijay Sethupati performs a stunning performance as Das. He plays the key role and most promising performance by him is always watchable. We can expect even more from him in future.
Sanchitha Shetty is just glamour doll in this film. She plays a decent imaginary friend of Das.
Simhaa performed well as innocent guy and Ramesh and Karuna karan delivers more than adequate performances. CJ.Bhaskaran, Radha Ravi and Ranjith are appropriate.
Technical Analysis
Santosh Narayan’s has delivered great music for Soodhu Kavvum. All the songs were well received and background score for Soodhu Kavvum is pleasing. Cinematography by Dinesh Krishnan is visually rich except for pre climax scene. Nalan Kumarasamy impresses with his directorial debut film. Screenplay is engaging and gripping, dialogues are effective, Editing is crisp.
Analysis
Nalan Kumarasamy should get credits for mold such a simple plot into an astonishing entertainer. Director has done a great job in dealing story with a great ease. Though the story is straightforward and effective screenplay makes the movie plot unpredictable. Simhaa, RJ Ramesh and Karuna Karan steals the show along with most promising actor of recent times Vijay Sethupati. Soodhu Kavvum deals with effects of being honest with the political people. The only problem with Soodhu Kavvum is that it may send some off beam signs for some category of people.
