Prakashraj’s
Vellithirai is funny but the humor is not,
it is rather wry and with cynical undertones.
There needs to be a special talent to laugh
at oneself. Prakashraj has done it in style
although the script and plot are borrowed
from the neighborhood. But who cares, as
long as the movie is agreeably entertaining
and thought-provoking.
