Plot

Anita is an engineering student who is fearless against the seniors and raging. She doesn’t care about what people think about her and lives a carefree life. But, she is a girl fighting against cancer. To everyone’s shock, she is sexually assaulted and murdered. The story takes a turn when a lawyer appears to make the criminals get their due punishment. Were they punished? What happened to the lawyer who faced several threats from the political side? The rest of the story deals with it.

Star Performance

Losliya seems to be a bit over-acting. Harbhajan Singh’s lip-synch doesn’t match the dialogues. Sathish gets a regular hero’s friend role. Arjun has gained a strong character, and he is good at executing.

Analysis

As the film marks the debut of Harbhajan Singh as a Tamil hero, people expect something different; in the story and performances. But, they see a typical college story with a set of students playing, raging, roaming, and enjoying their college days. The added thing is the assault and murder of the girl, and it is related to a recent incident that happened in Tamilnadu that went on to silent mode. A cricket match is forcedly inserted for Harbhajan. Those scenes are not executed properly. Similarly, the hero should have been given some acting and lip-syncing workshop before the shooting started. Arjun’s role is good, but when he delivers dialogues about women’s safety, we can hear people murmuring about the complaint against him from the film industry.

What’s There?

• Nothing special except for Harbhajan

What’s Not There?

• Logical loopholes
• Unimpressive filmmaking

Verdict

If the story had been different and well-executed, the film might have given a good name for Bhajji in Kollywood. However, it is different to see Harbhajan Singh as a hero. Friendship – Not so close to the heart!
