In the voice of director Mohan Raja, there’s a lovely line about the mindset of the have-nots. Sivakarthikeyan, in an author-backed role, graduates to the next level in his performance while Fahadh makes a confident Tamil debut. Velaikkaran is no Thani Oruvan, but Mohan Raja deserves praise for investing a lot of time and effort in the former and it’s quite evident through his research work. Sivakarthikeyan, in an author-backed role, graduates to the next level in his performance and he shatters the comedian stamp and how. Velaikkaran, given that it takes up a very serious issue and addresses it sincerely, could have been even more realistic.
