True,
it doesn’t work as well as it could
have but let’s give director Jagangi
(Cheran’s assistant) a high-five for
attempting to record the joys and sorrows
of an assistant director making his debut.
Nandha is not an actor with a lot of range
but he convinces us in those scenes when
he and his producer (Manivannan) throw tantrums
at each other. Memorable also are the early
scenes when he goes from one Kodambakkam
office to another pitching his script. If
you look carefully, you’ll spot a
couple of famous Tamil directors make quick
cameos in the movie. Kodambakkam is also
a neat title for a Tamil movie about a movie. |
