A singing hero, who brings back
the heroine from schizophrenia
using his singing skills, a
calculatedly chubby heroine,
their fathers who are at each
other’s throat - of which
one is a corrupt defense minister
– Adada Enna Azhagu is
so fake and out of place that
you end up feeling you are time-transported
two decades earlier.

medicine, fall head-over-

in love with each other. Little do they
know the threat in the form of their respective
fathers. While Sarath Babu, the psychiatrist
is cool with his son’s love, Ashish
Vidyarthi, the corrupt defense minister
presses the panic button. All hell breaks
loose when the girl gets kidnapped by some
terrorists and ends up a schizophrenic.
And there is a remedy though. The hero should
sing for her. Singing he does and brings
her back to normalcy! But the story doesn’t
end there. It takes another U turn and extends
for another hour or so before culminating
into a cliché called climax after
a sermon delivered by hero’s father.
Now that you have a fair idea about what
we meant by being ‘time-transported
two decades earlier’, there are other
aspects that make you feel out of the world.
And Nicole’s liberal skin-show is
not one of those. The director Jeyamurugan,
however, is unpretentious in his intentions,
for he couldn’t have done anything
better with this screenplay with holes like
a fishnet. So Nicole prances around in tacky
but particularly scanty costumes, bikinis
and gets wet for – you know what.
And about Jay Akash, Sarath Babu and Ashish
Vidyarthi – the lesser said the better.
There is nothing even if we tried though.
Even in these times of recession, producer
Thiruppur N V Ramasamy seems to have money
to burn. Kichaas’ camera brings Ooty
and Bangalore in its natural best but choreography
by Cool Jeyanth, Ajairaj, Kaadal Kandas
and Revathi Balakumar makes the dance competitions
on television look better. And all the more
atrocious is the fact that the movie has
seven songs to its credit.
The LTTE emblem flashes in front our eyes
prominently in the caps made worn by the
black-cats in the movie. And we have a hard
time believing that it’s only an inadvertent
error.
Verdict:
C grader for B & C Centers
