Dhanush is a happy-go-lucky guy who plays carom in the streets, blows out a considerable amount of his middleclass father’s earnings and indulges in a hopeless romance with a stranger girl who he meets in the bus stop. When caught red-handed for stealing pittance from his father for booze with his friends, Dhanush questions his father’s responsibility towards his upbringing. The angry father gets touchy and parts with some of his dear savings to his son and asks him to get a life. Dhanush gets one, a bike instead. The bike takes over the movie from here - gets Dhanush a job, saves his life from a freak incident and gets lost, subjecting him to interminable anguish, when all hell breaks loose.

That is not all yet. Dhanush’s sees himself at crossroads with underworld, courtesy a brutal murder from where his bike gets stolen. Although he wants to stay away, Dhanush invariably gets dragged into rubbing shoulders with the hooligans who now targets his family to seek revenge. Will Dhanush save his family and his bike from the assassins and reclaim his now-bloomed love is anybody’s guess.

Divya has three duets and less than a handful of scenes to her credit. She is curvy and seems to have potential. She is at complete ease in the romantic scenes which need mention as these days romance in movies seem largely contrived. There couldn’t have been a better choice than Murali, as Dhanush’s stern and considerate father. While portraying a characteristic middle class father’s role with effortless ease, he wells one’s eyes in scenes when he comes out in support of his son. Bhanupriya, as an emblematic mother, essays the role with her distinctive effortlessness. Karunas and Santhanam take the credit of lightening the mood of the movie with their wisecracks. Daniel Balaji as the adamant and hot headed goon does a good job, though it does carry shades of his character in 'Vettaiyaadu...'

Director Vetri Maran’s non-linear narration and packaging style are unique. Characterization needs special mention as they don't contradict themselves during the course of the movie. Though good in patches, a tighter and focused screenplay could have helped the movie much more. The director does go over board, in fact, a few face off scenes between Dhanush and Daniel is an exercise in self indulgence. Vetri Maran shows promise but still has a long way to go as far as finesse is concerned.
