Sundar C and Vishal have collaborated for the fourth time for Action after Madha Gaja Raja, (unreleased), Aambala and Kathi Sandai. This flick is much bigger in terms of budget, as the movie is majorly shot outside the country.
The movie has Tamannaah Bhatia, who had earlier worked with Vishal in Kathi Sandai, playing the female lead. Apart from her, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Akanksha Puri and Chaya Singh are the other heroines who will be seen in key roles.
In the supporting cast, Ramki, Kabir Duhan Singh, Anandraj, Sayaji Shinde and others are part of the cast. The film has Hiphop Tamizha's music, Dudley's cinematography and NB Srikanth's editing.
The movie has been shot in the foreign countries like Azerbaijan, Cappadocia, Krabi Islands and Istanbul, apart from filing key portions in Chennai, Dehradun and Rishikesh.
Story:
The movie revolves about Colonel Subhash (Vishal) of the Indian Army. The story revolves around his undercover operations along with his colleague played by Tamannaah Bhatia. Akanksha Puri will be seen as a ruthless assassin, while Aishwarya Lexmi enacts the character of Subhash's wife.
Analysis:
The movie has opened to negative reviews. Although the story seems to be good, Sundar C has failed in the execution part. The action sequences gets thums-up only on a few occasions and it lacks to build the tension usually associated in this genre.
Hype:
The movie has managed to create good buzz around it. In fact, it is the biggest movie to be out after Diwali releases like Vijay's Bigil and Karthi's Kaithi. The audience are curiously looking forward for its release. Check it out in the audience's words below:
Arun T:Just back from a terrific and tremendous #Action . Firstly a big applause for taking up such a bold and sensational script.Stunned with action sequence in interval block and electrifying climax.Climax scenes will make you to forget any lags or hiccups.#worthit
S Abishek Raaja: #Action
Quite liking the story, but the execution part is yet to hit the high point.
A bit of cliche and humour slowing things down.
@VishalKOfficial shines 1st half.
Sidhu: Awesome. A special video with
@VijaySethuOffl comes on at the start of #Action he explains that all the characters in the film will speak in TAMIL for 'audience convenience'.

KollyBuzz: #Action First half - Good
Sundar C tries a different attempt this time with a small twist and a good chase in the interval. Songs are the speed breakers.
@tamannaahspeaks Tamanna is beautiful as ever and vishal killing the action scenes.
Going good so far.
Salem Theatre Association: #Action - Poison! Sundar C came out of his comfort zone & tried somethg, but didnt click. Plus-Vishal's fight, locations, glamour. Logicless script, weak screenplay & worst BGM spoils everything. Interval block action seq is gud. Okayish 1st hlf followed by a Horrible 2nd hlf.

#Action idhu Sundar C padama? to be honest awesome first half.. First 20 mins little draggy and usual sundarc masala but post that top throttle screenplay. Intermission
Fantastic #Action Film. Thou he did some compromise for commercial aspects, some loopholes, this is a film you would never expect this from Sundar C. Certain scenes were brilliant. HHT bgm is good songs are real speedbreakers. Overall a good film. A different attempt from SundrC
Forum Reelz: Action : Review : Apart From Few Action Scenes #Action Turns To Be A Disappointing Stuff From #SundarC With A Logicless Script
#AiswaryaLakshmi Didn't Had Much To Do In Her Tamil Debut , #Vishal Excelled In Action Scenes & #Tamannah Was Ok
sai_graphics: #Action - Blockbuster.
Villain Role of Vishal Bhai Stands Out. He nailed the Jihadist Role. HHT Oscar level Score and Sundar C is the new Micheal Bay of India .
5/5
