RB Choudary produces this film that is written and directed by N.Rajasekar. The film has a multi star cast with Jiiva and Arulnithi in leading roles.
The issue with KS is its mundane screenplay and it’s dowdy story that offers nothing new. Friendship is an interesting premise to set a plot but the writer in Rajasekar tries to play safe and rarely moves out of his comfort zone. There are a lot of punch dialogues and stunts that look forced and out of place like always. The songs as usual are like hiccups..
Jiiva delivers what is expected out of him. Arulnithi is comfortable in his role. Manjima Mohan is good Priya Bhavani Shankar has little to do. Robo Shankar and Bala play their typical parts.
Abinanthan Ramabujam’s cinematography is neat. Yuvan’s music is just about average. Dinesh Ponraj’s editing is fair. Dialogues are OK. Direction is standard.
KALATHIL SANTHIPPOM is a routine fare that might work for those immune to such storylines..
KALATHIL SANTHIPPOM – KADALAI !!
