Reviews
"Sakalakala Vallavan" has opened to mixed reviews. The audience say that the storyline is not fresh and characterisations are weak. But there is lots of comedy and glamour to keep the cine-goers entertained. People can enjoy the film if they do not bother about logics. Jayam Ravi is good, Trisha is colourful and Anjali looks glamarous. Soori steals the show.

#SakalakalaVallavan is harmless and entertaining & sometimes, that's all a movie needs to be!
#SakalakalaVallavan is a laugh-riot. Just the right balance of comedy, action and emotions. A second consecutive HIT for @actor_jayamravi

#SakalakalaVallavan - 2/5. Outdated,typical 70's 80's crass masala mix . The laugh is on the audiences. Low brow comedy, too long.
#SakalakalaVallavan - 2/5. Soori gets slapped by everybody,Rajendran shouts @Actor_Vivek is ok, @actor_jayamravi is earnest but film is not

#SakalakalaVallavan: The best thing about it is that it isnt as horrible as Alex Pandian. Well, they could have left that title alone.
#SakalakalaVallavan: Regular fare. Few good comics, flashy costumes, a sizable cast and some sleaze constitute this typical Suraaj film.
Pissed with the high level of women objectification in #SakalakalaVallavan. There is even a scene where Soori advices Ravi to beat up Trisha
Maybe that's why Hari is considered a step above all the commercial directors in this age. Even his worst films respect women very well.
Average Ratings Given by Audience: 2.5

#Sakalakalavallavan 1st half - Very clichéd, sparsely entertaining .. Depends on #Soori's presence & #Anjali's glam factor. Testing !!
Seeing #Sakalakalavallavan - #Anjali a nalla vechu senjrukaanga!! In the Sadhigaari song, her costumes are damn skimpy .. U certificate vera

#SakalakalaVallavan - A brash,stale movie like this doesn't add any value to the career graphs of actors such as #JayamRavi #Trisha #Anjali.
yoursanjali Pls dont choose movies like #SakalakalaVallavan . You have proved urself as a fine actress. Why turn to such glamour! Gud luck
#SakalakalaVallavan - Swimming scene and cycling scene in #JayamRavi - #Anjali romance!! Hmm !! Director nalla feel panirkaaru. #Glamour
#SakalakalaVallavan - B C centers may go watch it.. But for the betterment of the industry, it is better that such films don't happen often
#SakalakalaVallavan -Avoidable. Just a few laughs here and there. Fails to work despite the presence of leading actors. As old as it can get
#SakalakalaVallavan - A typical Suraaj premise which has space for all the commercial ingredients. Ravi's liveliness is the USP. #Interval

Watched an early screening of #SakalakalaVallavan. 1.75/5. Another wasted product from Suraj, who fails to leave minimum impact.

#SakalakalaVallavan Full length comedy entertainer wit superb timing frm Soori & @actor_jayamravi combo. @Actor_Vivek does a cracker cameo^2
#SakalakalaVallavan Rajendran is at his usual best. @yoursanjali fits her role perfectly. Prabhu & Radha Ravi does their part perfectly
#SakalakalaVallavan @trishtrashers in a dfrnt role frm usual soft roles she had played #AngryBird v T compliments wit her neat performance
#SakalakalaVallavan comes wit a good message of how a couple shud live complimenting each other even with their differences. @lmmiltd
#SakalakalaVallavan First half is fast paced while 2nd half is cliched and drags towards the end. Songs are colourful and tap worthy.

#SakalakalaVallavan first half : Simply waste, erotic #Anjali throughout & best part is censor board has certified an 'U' certificate
Halfway through the film, Patrons have just walked out of screen! #SakalakalaVallavan #Appatakkar #AlexPandian scenario repeats.
@amarnath708 only #Anjali is worth watching a 'BIT' #SakalakalaVallavan #Appatakkar
