        Enjoyed the songs, thats all

        RATED 5/10 Language: Tamil Source: Satellite TV.

        Typical SAC movie with all logic breaks in the name of law. Especially the climax, LOL. Its Surya time (instead of Vijay) to get saved by Vijayakanth.

        Vijayakanth flashback portion and the duet also good and somewhat OK. Luckily the skipped Surya's flashback.

        Started to watch because of the song. All are so good and reminds me the school days.
