Thavamaayi thavamirunthu

This is the last time that i write a review for a movie which does not keep up even to the kindergarten standards.

Thavamaayi Thavamirinthu is a (pseudo) movie made by Cheran.

Plot spoilers ahead : don’t worry, there is nothing new here.

Story line

A family- father, mother and 2 sons
Elder son gets married to a lady who is not very appreciative of her husbands family.
Younger son loves a girl and when she is pregnant, elopes with her to chennai.
They have a kid and returns to their house/ family in their native village
His mother passes away-His dad passes away

That’s all !

Really, thats all !

The story portrays in every little detail, all those happens in the family. I would have accepted it if the movie was titled differently and categorized in the documentary section – “An average life of a man from Tamilnadu”

If Cheran *acts* in a movie again, I am going to file a case with the consumer protection counsel on the charges of "failure to deliver the goods/services promised"

A movie necessarily include acting, does it not ?

Cheran portrays a good-for-nothing hero, who does not even know that if his wife is pregnant she will have to be admitted to a hospital after nine months and he will have to take care of the expenses. Instead we see Cheran running around for money to pay the hospital charges- a vain attempt to create a pity feeling from the audience.

Cheren does not know how to act and very conveniently for him (as he is the director too) all the scenes where he has to *act* he is in shade, you know, very dark. So that we don’t know what’s happening there.

Despite of the fact that the father role is handled well, all others give us the feel of *acting*. Which we thought ended with the era of black and white films.

He sold us his first movie Autograph, it was different from the normal movies that we see in Tamil- so we accepted it. But how many times will you feed the same shit life that we all are in, back to us, Mr. Cheran ?

I hear that the movie is doing well in the box office. Nothing to wonder- to a person who is from a small town in Tamilnadu and who moved to the city for a better living- he will be able to relate it very much to his life.

Do not watch, if you have anything better to do.
