This is a very strange film held steady by an amazing performance by Kamal Hassan.It has a weird storyline with corrupt politicians, idiotic criminals, young lovers mouthing declarations of love, scatterbrained humor, childish scatological remarks (meant for smirking teens) all coming together in a campy sort of way.This is definitely not the sort of film you want to first see if you are completely new to Indian films as you may doubt your own sanity towards the end of the picture.
However, fans of Kamal Hassan will take a perverse glee in how their superstar manages to rise above all the nonsense in giving a memorable performance.
Chennai Kadhal
With his innocent looks, everyone thought that he could not play professional killer to good extent. But, Mahesh proved his critics wrong once again in this action drama. Though movie started as a pure action oriented, it slowly goes towards family drama. With few hiccups which are quite natural in mainstream cinema, Athadu is a must watch for Mahesh’ performance, good music and lavish production values. Kudos to Mahesh.
