Artists Performance

orange Surya is a perfect choice for the character of Suri. There is a scene before the interval of the movie in which they didn’t show the mutilated bodies in the TV bomb blasts. RGV has shown the horror and sadness in the eyes of Suriya. This scene speaks volumes about how an actor could be used to create superb effect of a bomb blast without actually showing the people who died in it. Priyamani is authentic as a supportive wife of Surya. Sudeep has a vital role in this movie. Subhalekha Sudhakar plays an important character. Most of the character characters are from the part 1.
