My Review: GURU EN AALU
"Guru En Aalu " touted to be the remake of yesteryear SRK hit "Yes Boss" starring Madhavan & Mamtha Mohandas and directed by Selva , who is creating a reputation for him by doing a slew of remakes , falls flat right from the start. It fails to create any ripples as far as comedy is concerned & the script is totally non-existent while direction is shoddy to say the least.
Madhavan seems to believe that by hamming his heart out he may make us laugh but he end up irritating .It is a huge letdown from him after the brilliance of "Yavarum Nalam". Mamtha Mohandas & acting don't go together it seems .Her looks for this movie is pathetic with some amatuerish make-up & garish costumes.Abbas tries his level best but with little results.
Vivek & M.S.Baskar do evoke some laughter here & there but by large their attempt at comedy is redundant. By the way how long does Vivek keep on doing female impersonation in the name of comedy .It is high time for Vivek to rethink his strategy.
Dialogues must be the strong point for any comedy movie but here Venkateshan's dialogues are unimaginative & don't tickle the funny bones .
Srikanth Deva has done something in the name of music & high point of his work is the "Kabhie Kushie Kabhie Ghum" theme that he has used in the climax fight.
Senthilkumar has done his work with no scope for complaints as the cinematographer of the movie but in couple of instances light reflections ruins the shot.
Selva's disinterest shows throughout .He has messed up with the original script ,not that it was any better but the changes do the movie no good . The fact the only the blooper shots in the end credits bring some sort of smile to the face is a huge letdown for this movie which was advertised to be a rip-roaring comedy .
Bottomline : No Comedy , only Kadi ....
2/5
