Padikadhavan


There are few films that inspire you to review them at 2 in the night.. Padikadhavan is one such movie.. Not for how good the film was or how much Tamanah lived up to expectations (both of which didn't happen) but for how much the movie insults one's intelligence..

Typical mass entertainer with zero logic, which would've been okay if it had some good humour or good songs, something for me to write about here.. The songs are the worst i've heard in a while.. Humour was there in abundance but it was at the expense of the movie.. I don't remember ever laughing so hard during the intermission.. We had our own doubts that Sathyam would throw us out for the noise we were making in the corridor..

The irritating part was how they wasted good actors.. Shayaji Shinde and Atul Kulkarni are good actors, its a pity they waste their time with such movies.. Vivek's jokes were okay in parts.. I still can't fathom why Tamanah agreed to do this movie.. 

There was a joke in the movie (strictly for Tamizh folks) where when Tamanah says she can't stand the sight of Dhanush, he says "Paatha pudikadhu, Paaka paaka dhaan pudikum".. Narayan joked that the same would be the case with the movie but unfortunately, it went from bad to worse.. I dread to imagine what it would be like watching "Villu" given most reviewers claimed Padikadhavan was a better movie!!

what a waste of time it was...I still can't believe how someone like Atul kulkarni wanted to be a part of this!
