Taman Kumar, Arundhathi, Vincent Asokan, Balaji, Pyramid NatarajanDirection: Cable SankarGenre: ThrillerDuration
Synopsis: A desperate Madhu switches her photograph with that of a reporter who has to be killed, hoping that her family will get the insurance money. And, now, the assassin hired to murder the reporter is after her and will not rest until she is dead.
Movie Review: Writer and blogger Cable Sankar's debut is a film a young woman who plays with fire out of desperation and just about manages to end up unharmed with some help from her boyfriend. After an initial misunderstanding, Madhu ( Arundhathi) and Shiva (Taman) fall in love. When Madhu's stepbrother is fatally injured in an accident, and needs a huge sum of money for the operation, in a fit of desperation, she switches her photograph with that of a reporter who is to be killed by an assassin. Her hope is that her family can use the insurance money to save her stepbrother. However, by the time she realizes her folly, the assassin paid to kill the reporter is after Madhu and won't stop till she is dead.
If there is one thing that Cable Sankar has to be appreciated for, it is for attempting a film that is centred around the heroine. This is a plot that could have easily been made with the hero as the central figure (guy gets into a problem and overcomes it) but he lets the actions of the heroine drive the plot forward. Madhu is the one who initiates contact with Shiva.
