Veerasamy
-
Uncontrolled
Explosive
Creativity
Many
actors
in
film
industry
has
quit
the
industry
voluntarily
after
they
became
father
of
a
teen-age
hero.
But
Vijaya
T.Rajender
is
different
from
others.
At
a
time
when
his
son
Simbu
is
singing
duets
with
glamourous
heroines,
he
has
made
a
comeback.
It
is
the
fate
of
Tamil
film
goers
to
tolerates
this
nonsense.
Nobody
would
deny
TR's
efficiency,
musical
taste
and
powerful
dialogues.
When
those
are
performed
by
others
through
TR,
it
will
surely
be
enjoyable.
But
this
time
TR
has
directed
himself.
Nobody
is
there
to
control
him.
So
naturally
over
confidence
or
over
enthusiasm
can
destroy
the
successfullness
of
such
a
film.
Vijaya
T
Rajendhar,
acting
in
the
title
role,
is
an
advocate
and
a
local
MLA.
He
is
always
doing
good
things
to
the
people
whom
he
sorrounds.
His
sister
Sheela
falls
in
love
with
a
pimp's
brother
Ajees.
After
coming
to
know
about
their
affair,
Veerasaamy
tries
to
object
to
it
but
is
not
successfull.
The
pimp
criminally
plans
to
marry
Meghna
and
Ajees.
Meanwhile,
Meghna
falls
in
love
with
Arun.
A
naive
Meghna
enacts
a
drama
and
separates
Arun
from
Veerasaami's
sister.
Parellel Story: Mumtaj, a glamorous neighbor who has been watching Veerasamy for a long time, attracted by his "goodies", falls in love on him. Up in arms against her family members, Mums leads a different life staying away from them. A sequence of events leads to a local rowdy winning the local elections and in the process defeating Veerasaami and eventually marrying Mumtaj. Unable to bear his physical abuse and torture, Mumtaj plans to walk away from her husband. Veerasaami then takes the responsibility of setting things right in both the families. Does he succeed in his mission and what sacrifices he was compelled to make, is what the story ends with. That you will have to watch and see!!!
One can't compare this film with his earlier commercial hits like Thangaikore Geetham or Mythili Ennai Kaathali. Veerasaami is a kind of movie, which is sure to provide a quaint relishing experience for the audience who will enjoy watching Vijaya T Rajendhar romance, run around the trees, flexing his muscles and delivering typical 'TR' dialogues. The audience can be enjoy this film like watching a recorded dance programm.
In his previous films, TR had been playing in a key role, which helped the film to be more enjoyable. But in Veerasamy, in the first half, TR portrays himself as a 'mass hero' or avatar for save the people from all their miseries. Sentiment and emotional dialogues occupies the second part. However TR takes up the entire screen space right from the beginning and "threatens" the audience. Seeing him in colorful costumes and dancing along with Mumtaz with his bubbly physique has really embarrassed the audience. Particularly the double meaning dialogues prevented the old TR fans from watching the film enjoyably. He also not missed the opportunity to campaign his political ideology and also make some references about his son Silambarasan.
Mumtaz plays as a daughter of a prostitute, later she falls in love with TR - she done a good job. It is good joke that Mumtaj sings duet song with glamorous costumes but TR never touches the glamour doll till the climax of the film. It seems that in every scene Meghna Naidu had clearly understood what her director has expected from her. Donning the role of a rich and a suave girl, she does her part so glamorously. The rest of the cast including Santhanam comes around Vijaya T Rajendhar singing his paeans.
Vijaya T Rajendar has handled the story, sreenplay, dialogues, lyrics, camera, art, stunts, music and direction departments. Among these, composer Rajendar attracts easily. There are 11 songs in this film. Simbu also sung a duet song for his father! Few could be really enjoyable. Vijaya T Rajendar has the potential but it should be exposed in a controlled and decent manner. Otherwise we will be the evidences for few more 'Veerasamies'!
