On Target
The debutant director N V Nirmal Kumar actually has a rather routine revenge drama as his plot. But he scores with his execution. It is also a very clever ploy to extend the character of Salim from Naan. It is never mentioned in the film and was not even done during the promotions. Though not a sequel, Salim sort of works like a franchise. (more)

Salim - sluggish first half, watchable second half.
The director has justified Salim�s fighting capabilities by including a tiny shot of him teaching martial arts to small children in the title montage that establishes the character of Salim. (more)

Salim Review - Doing the right way
Timing sense and sense of time are both perfectly in place in the movie. Many scenes, especially from the latter portions of the movie, leave you pondering over questions on truth, reality, conduct and morale. And all this in a clean entertainer, but for just a couple of dialogues left uncensored. (more)

Salim, a model doctor and a do-gooder, breaks down when he loses his job and rejected by his fiance. He turns into a vigilante to teach the powerful a lesson...
You have to give it to Vijay Antony. He is definitely not an expressive actor (all he has is one stoic expression) but with Naan earlier and now Salim, he has managed to find roles where impassiveness is a trait of the character. In this film, he is a doctor by profession and a do-gooder at large (a fact which is established needlessly through innumerable scenes where he helps the needy in his profession and even outside of it). He gets engaged to Nisha, who, with her volatile personality, finds it hard to comprehend his Zen-like nature. Things get to a point when Salim's service-mindedness at work and non-confrontational nature when he's with Nisha end up in him losing his job and the girl.(more)
