Jiiva was Arya’s
bête noir in Boss Engira Baskaran. But
this time around director Rajesh turned some
stereotypes on their heads. Jiiva does wear
the suit in defiance of the scorching heat
but mainly, we are told to find accommodation
for his booze. And he can swear with the best
of them and is always game for a good fight.
In the end, he helps the hero’s cause
and in so doing proves that not all American
Mappillais are puffed up pansies.
