Performances
Vijay
Anthony
has
rendered
his
usual
best
with
subtle
and
measured
performance.
He
knows
his
strength
and
weakness
and
hence,
chooses
his
movies
suiting
his
demand
and
capabilities.
Anjali
&
Sunaina
have
done
justice
to
their
roles
adding
weightage
to
the
movie.
The
rest
of
the
cast
and
crew
have
chipped
in
with
their
share
of
contributions.
Technical
Aspects
Along
with
actor
Vijay
Anthony,
it's
the
music
director
in
him,
who
has
scored
well.
The
background
music
holds
the
audience
back
to
the
seat
while
songs
are
not
left
behind.
Arumbey
single
track,
which
was
released
few
months
ago
is
a
chartbuster.
Editing
is
adequate
which
doesn't
spike
the
viewing
experience
nor
lets
the
audience
down.
Cinematography
by
Richard
M
Nathan
is
one
of
the
key
drivers
of
the
movie.
Kaali
travels
from
the
USA
to
India
with
different
locations
and
varied
lighting.
He
has
handled
the
camera
well
and
offers
a
good
viewing
experience.
Director
Kiruthiga
Udayanidhi's
name
was
doing
rounds
after
the
release
of
Vanakkam
Chennai
for
her
impressive
debut.
Being
associated
to
a
prestigious
family
and
the
wife
of
actor-producer
Udayanidhi
Stalin,
Kiruthiga,
had
her
own
name
chiselled
after
her
debut
movie.
Though
Kaali
speaks
about
its
own
merit,
the
screen
treatment
could
have
been
better
considering
its
interesting
storyline.
Nonetheless,
Kiruthiga
scores
pretty
well
with
her
overall
rendition
of
output.
