SIVA MASULA SAKTHI

My Review :SIVA MANASULA SAKTHI

Powered by: Chakpak.com Siva Manasula Sakthi 


Vikatan group's re-entry into movie with "Siva Manasula Sakthi" (SMS) with Jeeva & Anuya in the lead & debutant director M.Rajesh at the helm , is a good time pass for the valentine weekend. Movie doesn't pretend to be a classic or a trend-setter & the makers have clearly envisioned their target audience & made it only keeping them in mind.

Plot :Siva mansula Sakthi , Sakthi manasula Siva , yet there is a big ice in between that needs to be broken before they finally unite.

Jeeva :He breezes through a lively & light-hearted role of a boy next door with elan.He has tried many voice modulations though not pleasant every time , it is a worthy attempt .He does tend to go over the top when he tries to behave very locally but that is a minor aberration in a overall good performance.

Anuya: Surprisingly she is good at histrionics & her hard work at mouthing the tamil dialogues shows. However she must take care to shed the extra adipose in some inappropriate areas of her body.

Shanthnam : He has done a stupendous job in this movie after a long time. Every frame he is on screen brings the roof down with laughter.His sojourn with the mobile phones & the bar episodes are bound to challenge your facial muscles.

Urvasi : Is another strong support to the cast .Especially her performance in the climax is worthy of mention.

Arya comes as a pleasant surprise in a guest role .

Yuvan Shankar Raja has given variety of songs , each of different genres & each humworthy .He also strengthens the proceedings with soulful re-recording.

Sakthi Saravanan has worked hard in filming the scenes in some real locations & many scenes are shot with hand held camera , which enhances the mood of the movie.

M.Rajesh has written & directed the movie which is his debut . He has taken an evergreen theme which stikes a chord with the viewers instantly & spiced it up with some realistic day to day happenings in a humorous manner. Only thing is that he needs to complete certain scenes crisply rather than dragging them which may tire the viewers. This is the cause for the pace getting lax in the second half which once again picks up in the climax which is rip-roaring.

On the whole , it is a nice attempt by the debutant director , ably Supported by the cast & Yuvan Shankar Raja.

Bottomline: Watch it once .

3.5/5
