Buffoonery gone wrong

Vaanavarayan Vallavarayan is a two hour challenge to the audience to 'Laugh If You can'. The audience unfortunately cannot live up the challenge despite their best efforts. But there is one thing that the film succeeds in.(more)

This comedy drama is likely to work with the rural masses

VV's recipe is clearly targeted at the rural masses and the cocktail of comedy, familial tiffs and sentiments ought to work with this target group. The male leads, Kreshna and Ma Ka Pa Anand are energetic and perform without inhibitions, with the latter's famed timing at comedy coming in handy on quite a few instances. (more)

Siamese torture

Admittedly, the occasional joke works, but there is just no excuse for how mirthless most scenes are. To borrow a modern expression, almost all its jokes are lacking in the 'lulz department'...(more)

Brothers Vaanavarayan and Vallavarayan share a great bond but Vaanavarayan falls in love with Anjali, who feels that Vallavarayan is the cause for her lover being a wastrel. Will romance cause a split for the brothers?

Vaanavarayan Vallavarayan feels like a different version of the 80s romance drama Chinna Thambi Periya Thambi, going by the initial scenes. We have two brothers who are extremely fond of each other and are a terror to the village folk, especially if anyone talks ill of either of the two. As in that film, the problem arises with the arrival of a girl into their lives, but this is where the movies begin to differ. There, both the brothers fall for the same girl and start fighting, but here, it is Vaanavarayan who falls in love with Anjali, a college student from a neighbouring village. However, the conflict in this film arises because of Vallavarayan, whose unruly behaviour causes problems between both their families. The rest of the plot is all about how the brothers try to win back Anjali. (more)
