Jiiva’s dual role in the symbolically titled Singam Puli is nothing phenomenal. Director Sai Ramani banks on the regular masala fare and comes up with a cliché ridden fare of lookalike siblings of which one is an angel and the other, socially inept.

Trade Talk:
The targeted B and C centers might provide respite but Jiiva’s fan base is mostly city-bred youngsters.

Public Talk:
Jiiva’s Ko is being anticipated dearly.
