Others have done a good job summarizing how pathetic and lousy this movie is. I seldom watch Tamil movies but saw this on Netflix and thought to give it a try. It was such a waste of time.
This movie normalizes hitting women. The female protagonist is hit twice - once by her onscreen fiancé and next by the male protagonist. On both occasions the movie fails to address the issue. After being hit by the fiancé, the actress picks up a glass of alcohol and moves away, while the rest of the people who saw her being slapped rush to the fiancé to check whether he was alright. The abuser turns victim. It speaks of the society that women continue to live in and how hitting women is normalized.
On another occasion, Siddharth, the actor hits the female protagonist. This time he does it to push her away from him - a show of tough love. As she gradually walks, the background musical score erupts with a choir going "aa aa" and the flute dramatizing the moment. It was just so shocking to me. Him slapping the woman was portrayed normal and a show of tough love. How do established actors like him agree to such scenes? Or does the society in general find such things normal? Disgusting!
