Tamil Movie Sindhanai Sei Review

Cast: Yuvan, Sashanth, Bala, Madhu Sharma, Madhu Priya, Kadhal Dhandapani Direction: Yuvan
Production: RMA Factory Production Music: Thaman

Sindhanai Sei by debutant director Yuvan is about five friends, who have failed to succeed in life, joining hands with an ulterior motive. The movie begins as an emotional drama and becomes an action-flick dealing with bank robbery.

Yuvan, who has also donned the protagonist’s role, has come out with a different theme. He has looked into the ill-effects of humiliation caused by inabilities. The psychological insight has been presented in the backdrop of an engrossing tale of a crime.

Adhi (Yuvan) is one of those who haven’t made any impact during school life. After being neglected by his family as a useless fellow, Adhi comes to city to seek his livelihood where he meets a rich and beautiful Gayathri (Madhu Priya) and instantly falls for her. To his surprise, the girl too falls in love with him and they get married in just a month. But they get separated in just a day.

Shattered Yuvan meets his four friends, who studied with him in school. They too are struggling to make both ends meet. Together they hatch a conspiracy to rob a bank. Their clever plan puzzles police after robbery. After getting the money, mistrust crops up. Friends get killed one after another and the hunt for the killer follows. Yuvan, who survives, tries to settle scores with his conceived offenders.

Yuvan has conceived a story with complexities and executed it well. He has handled the psychological aspect of the experiences in a commendable manner. The movie progresses in a brisk pace post interval but songs apply speed brakes.

The problem with the script is that it becomes predictable after a point. The pre climax sequences are dragged beyond a limit and hence they try our patience.

Music director Thaman (one of the boys in Shankar's Boys) has given a couple of racy songs.

On the whole, Sindhanai Sei impresses with a new theme and a different treatment despite a few flaws and predictability in the narrative.
