Iraivi - female noun of
Iraivan. Karthik Subbaraj creates "Iraivi" for us to understand and
appreciate womanhood. And how!
His
story telling style is unique and intriguing. There is a clear display of
genius. Any other director might have muddled this up. But not Karthik.
Each
character is etched so thoughtfully. Guess his favourites are VS and Bobby
Simha. They have not let him down at all. Reliable bets! Wonderful performance
by both of them. But, SJ Surya is a surprise package!!!! Class act. Have liked
a couple of movies directed by him. That was all. With Iraivi, SJ becomes a
true blue actor and performer. Superb! All credits to the director!
Again,
have not liked Kamalini earlier. But in this one, she has really acted. Good
job.
Anjali
has a power packed performance. Liked her especially when she retorts to Vijay
Sethupathi about her feelings. Truly fitting reply for such men! Tight slap, in
fact!!
The
Chithappa character (Crazy Cheenu???) touches your heart. And so does Radha
Ravi.
Santosh
scores again! Somehow got Raja feel. But guess it was apt.
The
"getting drenched in the rain" euphemism...... Extremely intelligent
and takes time to sink in.
"Aan
nedil. Penn kuril. " Sorry non-Tamil folks. I am not that articulate to
translate this wonderful piece of dialogue in English. Cannot even guess how
they will sub title this dialog!
Overall
- worth every minute of the 3 hrs. Not a second did I find boring or dull.
Karthik has done a splendid job elevating the status of women! But in his own
style!!
Don't miss it.
