Saguni is the right prescription.

Karthi is one reason to buy a ticket for the film. He has evolved as a bankable commercial mass hero and his dancing in "Vella Bambaram" song is a revelation. The moment Santhanam appears on the screen people burst out laughing, and he is too good.(more)

Spicy mass masala

The first half is entertaining; Santhanam's hilarious one-liners and trademark verbal punches carry you through to the intermission when, thankfully, a mild twist occurs to make you sit up.

A passable entertainer

Karthi and Santhanam share a delightful screen chemistry. The first half is breezy, humorous and engaging. It's in the second half that the screenplay falters.(more)
