Went to watch the movie for Nayantara but came back impressed with Saranya.A simple story of a ingenue girl outwitting druglords with a black comedy plot.Comedy does feel predictable in some parts and Some scenes are unconvincing. But still the movie works. Though I like Nayan but a younger actress would have been a better fit for the role of Kokila.I saw a review saying this is a copy of "We are the Millers". No it is not except a truck full of drugs concept.This is more of a movie which says "looks can be deceptive" and "women are not weak"
Awesome acting by Nayantara and team.
The dry, sarcastic comedy was spot on..
It was well thought entertainment, without the usual muscler hero or the pretty heroine...
The script and screenplay was well played out.
One of the few understated movies that will become sleeper hit..

The greatest trick a Director can pull off is keep you invested in the story irrespective of all illogical and absurd things going around. That has exactly worked here. It could still have been taken as an emotional story, but the screenplay is just brilliant and Nayantara's character changes are quite brilliant. Must watch!!
Wow.....the last time I laughed so hard was the first time I saw Sathileelavathi in a theatre during my childhood. I love Guy Ritchie movies, this reminded me of some good plot twists in those movies I love.
I never watched the trailer but the viral hit song hundred times over. I thought this was going to be some funny romcom, boy was I in for a surprise.
Excellent cast, memorable quirky characters and good background score by Anirudh. First half of the movie sets up the stakes well. It's the second half that drags you for a riveting but funny ride.
Best comedy I have seen in recent years hands-down. Kudos to Nayanthara for the subtle and innocent portrayal of Kokila. Koko was cocaine mixed with laughing gas.

Acction performce and tecnicaly i feel a cult movie. Concept also similar to breaking Bad seriese. Decting was so rush and scenes in entire movie. Song also perfect but visualy lame. But comdies are ultimate twist and turns and emotional scenes are not convisible. As my opion all the nagetivity came from hurry of the direction and low budjet. If the direction take as much time and choose diffrent diffrent location you would have watched perfect mafia film. How out put is good but not perfect. My suggetion is watch this without any expectation. Comdey and bgm will make you satisfied.
