You have bought a good meat & ingredients, you decide to make an unusual dish, in the process of cooking the dish promises to be tastier, but when you overcook it, the whole effort you put on to get ur desired one gets spoiled.
This is what exactly happend with Iraivi. The movie has very good performers as a lead stars, particularly SJ SURYAH was terrific. Karthik comes up with a concept that focuses on man- woman relationship and few thoughts on how man should treat his Iraivi (Woman). There are scenes where bobby tries hard to relate the core concept, like man - arakkan, woman - iraivi reference and his lengthy dialogues on how true love and attentions a woman he love deserves. Though it sounds drammatic it was quite thought provoking too.
There is one place where one of the 4 main Iraivi (Pooja Devariya) was shown as independent, living her own life, a spark on how an independed empowered woman should be, but i doubt if karthik was making fun of it as her life/relationship and freedom is all about just a 3 letter. ( does karthik Subbaraj wanted us to tease "Ivalothana unga empowerment? )
The other Mainithis (Anjali, Kamalini, Vadivukarasi) of this film has very little part of the three men's life, and all of them are affected emotionally mentally just because of man's hasty decisions! (Probably this is what director's ingredient), but when Karthik Subbaraj overcooks it by just focusing on the men's reckless decisions & subplots to feed such decisions, there the film become more artificial and forced towards the end, Which makes a wannabe classy film as annoying to an extent.
Iraivi - unconventional but overcooked !
