Siva putrudu movie music director
Khushbu, Meena, and Prakash Raj have been wasted in roles that have no substance. It is good to see Khushbu and Meena back in action with Superstar Rajinikanth and but, both of them don't really have anything to do. Nayanthara does her part well in a role that travels along with the protagonist. Keerthy Suresh is the next actor after Rajinikanth who gets more prominence in the film and the talented actress has delivered a fairly decent performance. It would have been more effective if director Siva had extracted more from Rajinikanth in the emotional scenes as his performance in the sentiment portions look artificial. His electrifying screen presence saves Annaatthe to an extent. The legendary actor looks refreshingly energetic and his performance will be a delight for the fans. Superstar Rajinikanth is in great form and he is completely enjoyable as Kaalaiyan. It would have been really good if Siva and team had concentrated more on the writing part, along with effective packaging. Siva's earlier outing, Viswasam had a strong female lead and that made the film stand out from the usual commercial films, but in Annaatthe, all the characters are one dimensional, lacking depth. Other than that, unfortunately, Annaatthe does not have anything that garners your attention. Only a handful of scenes (like the first meeting between Rajinikanth and Abhimanyu Singh) stand out, earning the claps from the audience. The pre-interval fight scene is another one that looked good. The screenplay moves in a predictable fashion and that acts as a speed breaker for the film. It is a templated mass masala commercial entertainer that banks heavily on the stardom of Superstar Rajinikanth. Director Siva doesn't try anything out of the box with Annaatthe and he sticks to his basics. In a line, Annaatthe is a film that revolves around the emotional bond between a brother and a sister, a premise that we are very much familiar with. What was her problem and how did Kaalaiyan save her is what Annaatthe is all about.
For Kaalaiyan (Rajinikanth), his dear sister Thanga Meenatchi (Keerthy Suresh) means everything to him and when her life turns upside down after her wedding, how does Kaalaiyan react to it? Kaalaiyan decides to avenge the people who were responsible for making his sister's life miserable. If you have seen the trailer of Annaatthe, you pretty much know the crux of the film. Annaatthe is a film that has excited the film buffs sheerly for its star cast that includes the likes of Khushbu Sundar, Meena, Nayanthara, Keerthy Suresh, Prakash Raj, Jagapathi Babu, Soori, Sathish, and others. Amidst huge expectations and hype, Superstar Rajinikanth's Annaatthe has released in theatres and the film is expected to attract the family audiences in large numbers.
