Sundar C, the director known for his commercial success with low budget mass masala flicks, has now established himself as a successful commercial hero too. In his earlier two movies as hero, he has acted in sensible roles. Now in Sandai, Sundar becomes takes on a role of a full - fledged hero and delivers a mass flick with comedy, sentiment and illogical action scenes.

The film has been received well by the B and C audiences with whistles and claps. Of course, compared with the so called A class audiences, the B and C audiences are the better customers who always get their tickets for a good price and never expects complementary tickets.
