The timing of release of Vijaykanth’s
Sudesi was right. With elections in Tamil Nadu
set for May 8th, the captain, it seems, has
sent Sudesi as a vanguard of what he could do
for the people. It is the story of a leader
bring who social changes into his country.
Though a bad performer in Cities, the movie
has picked up momentum in towns and villages,
the real election base. Director JP (read Jaya
Prakash) is happy that his dreams have come
true. Three years back, he evolved the story
for Vijaykanth, and the way he traveled, convincing
the hero, scripting it for screen and getting
dialogue with lot of powder, is long.
Can all the moviegoers be converted to supporters
of a party? That’s a long shot but still,
the captain can manage to pull off some fast
ones.
