Rating - 3.75/5
A sequel moving through a narrative visual template by the main characters.
The story moves through the life of Vadhyar Perumal and what influenced him to be a leader of the protest group from a teacher and how the law and administration hunts him for their crooked interests forms the storyline.
Vetrimaran has put light on the the life of Vaadhyar in this part wherein it was more concentrated on Constable Kumaresan in the premier film. He has brilliantly conveyed the story through a nuanced narrative style driving strong emotional feelings on the screen. The movie moves through varied pace beginning on a faster note and then keeping a steady pace once the background is laid for progress of the story.
Splendid performances by Vijay Sethupathi,Soori,Manju Warrier & Chetan. Rajiv Menon,Gautam Menon,Kishore,Tamizh,Bose Venkat and the boy who played Karuppu also made notable performances.
Good frames by Cinematographer Velraj and beautiful songs composed by the Maestro Ilaiyaraja adds to delectable experience for the viewers.
A brilliant movie that projects on how differently the democratic bureaucracy power treats people based on strata.
