Performances:
Santhosh in the role of
a college student is ample, but has scope to learn. Debutant is
praiseworthy in the parts, when he cuts his wrist with a broken bottle.
Turn to Manisha Yadav,
her performance looks like a sequel to Vazhakku Enn 18/9 with the
variations in her act as vivacious college girl in the first half and
emotional wrong stepped teenager in the second half.
Jayaprakash and Thulasi
stood out with their performances as doting parents to Swetha. Arjun

gang of friends.
Even though she has very less to perform, Poornima Bhagyaraj has comeback with valuable act that is feast to watch on-screen.

Anthony’s editing is crisp without losing any whip of the script.
