Dham
Dhoom
is
the
last
film
by
Jeeva,
but
before
he
could
make
the
final
touches,
he
left
the
world.
If
he
had
done
the
remaining
portion
giving
it
his
classic
touch,
definitely
it
would
have
achieved
new
standards
(even
though
the
plot
is
a
mere
copy
of
Richard
Gere's
Hollywood
movie)
His
assistant
Manikandan
has
failed
to
make
the
film
as
his
guru
Jeeva
would
have
wanted.
But
the
music
of
Harris
Jayaraj
and
Jeeva's
fantastic
camera
work
and
picturesque
locations
of
Russia
make
the
film
watchable.
The
story
is
however
not
so
interesting.
Jayam
Ravi
is
a
happy
go
lucky
guy,
a
medical
practitioner
by
profession.
One
day
he
makes
a
visit
to
his
sister
Anu
Hassan
at
Pollachi
and
comes
across
Kangana
Ranavut.
As
expected
he
falls
in
love
and
after
some
problems
from
both
the
sides,
they
plan
to
get
married.
Immediately
the
marriage
is
also
fixed.
But
Ravi
is
then
sent
by
the
government
to
Russia
for
a
medical
conference.
In
Russia
some
drug
mafia
trap
Ravi
in
a
murder
case
and
the
local
police
arrests
him
and
tortures
him
Later
with
the
help
of
a
Tamil
lawyer
(Lakshmi
Rai)
he
escapes
and
collects
the
evidence
to
prove
his
innocence
in
the
case.
At
the
same
time,
in
Pollachi,
Kangana
is
confident
about
Ravi's
return
and
asks
her
parents
to
make
arrangements
for
the
marriage.
However
in
the
end
Jayam
Ravi
appears
in
Pollachi
and
joins
his
fiancee.
An
important
minus
of
the
film
is
its
poor
plot.
It
rambles
unnecessarily
between
Russia
and
Pollachi.
Pollachi
seems
unelievable
and
the
scenes
are
not
in
order.
Every
scene
is
predictable
and
the
climax
is
not
much
impressive
typical
of
Jeeva
films!
But
apart
from
these
minuses,
Jeeva's
excellent
camera
work
and
Harris
Jayaraj's
soothing
melodies
make
everyone
watch
the
movie.
The
picturisation
and
tune
of
"Anbae
Anbae..." with
the
backdrop
of
picturesque
Coorg
is
a
treat
for
cinema
lovers!
The
scene
where
the
hero
escapes
from
a
police
car
after
an
assassination
attempt
by
jumping
onto
the
top
of
buildings
is
amazing.
Hollywood
stunt
director
Chris
Anderson
has
done
an
excellent
job
in
these
portions.
Jayam
Ravi
plays
the
role
with
great
involvement
and
real
enthusiasm.
He
perfectly
fits
the
role
of
a
vigorous
action
hero!
Kangana
looks
slim
but
lacks
nativity
especially
in
that
of
a
typical
Pollachi
girl's
costumes.
Though
Lakshmi
Rai
appears
throughout
the
film
without
make
up
she
has
done
justice
to
her
role.
Jayaram's
bad
guy
role
does
not
suit
this
comely
and
friendly
face.
The
poor
screenplay
and
casting
have
spoiled
the
film.
