Thol(l)aipesi
is a very interesting name and one would hope to see
a neat and interesting movie and that too a thriller.
But a heavy dosage of melodrama is what one gets to
witness and the intelligence of the title stops just
with it.
Vikramaditya of whistle fame is the son of a rich
man and he thinks that possessing a cell phone could
change the life of a person completely. He uses his
phone mainly to flirt around with the fairer sex.
His rich dad gets him married off to Priyanka but
the son never gets rid of his cell phone. He starts
having an affair with a girl called Divya and when
his wife Priyanka gets to know about this through
the phone (Tholaipesi) she leaves him in a fit of
rage.

Meanwhile
he comes across another girl Arthi who brings the best out
from him and in the process desires to marry him. The rest
of the story is about whether Priyanka and Vikramaditya unite
or whether he chooses Divya or whether Vikramaditya decides
to spend the rest of his life with the girl (Arthi) who reforms
him and what happens to the Tholaipesi? |

Though the concept is interesting, the lack of depth
in the story and the ambiguous screenplay plays spoilsport.
Director K Paneerselvam’s inexperience is revealed
when many scenes end abruptly.
In the acting department Vikramaditya needs to work
on his emotions, but plays the romantic part pretty
well. Priyanka who was last seen in Veyil does a good
job and Nizhalgal Ravi suffers from proper characterization.
Karunas does not impress this time and none of the
other actors register an impact.
The technical department also has nothing special
to boast of as the cinematography or the music department
is just plain.

On
the whole the movie is a non starter due to improper marketing
which is very much needed for such a movie. This is a cell
phone without a sim card.
Verdict - Thol(l)aipesi is just (Thollai)
