Vadacurry Movie Review



Director: Saravana Rajan
Cast: Jai, Swathi,RJ Balaji
Music: Vivek and Mervin
Producer: Dhayanidhi Alagiri

Vadacurry is light and easy, enjoyable for the most part and is packed with delicious little scenes and moments that will have you chuckling, the moment you settle into your seat. Debutant Saravana Rajan, coming from Venkat Prabhu school of filmmaking has made a fun film, with right mix of entertainment elements.

The film is cooked to suit the taste buds of today’s youth audiences. It has all elements that the current audiences prefer- funny dialogues, sticky situations, item number by Sunny Leone, peppy songs, some twists and turns and all this in just two hours.

The plot itself is ridiculously simple and it is actually the situations that the hero gets into that makes the film move forward. Satish (Jai), is a newly appointed medical representative, who is basically a family man, living with his brother an autorikshaw driver and his wife (Kasturi).

Sathish is always embarrassed about his mobile phone, and much to his delight picks up a phone which is left carelessly by its owner at a tea shop. The mobile phone gets him into trouble and his carefree life with girlfriend Naveena (Swathi) turns upside down.

The subject of the film is interesting on how the hero stumbles on an organised racket where medicines which have already reached their expiry period are re-sold in the market. But the way the story is told is in bits and pieces, but finally everything falls in place quiet easily.

Jai as the cool and composed guy comes out with a neat performance, with his tongue in cheek deadpan humour, especially in a scene where he says he is a fan of Simbu but can’t do whatever he does! Swathi’s role is not very significant but she does a good job. RJ Balaji as hero’s sidekick steals the thunder and his style and dialogue is similar to his FM show, and at times mocks at himself. In fact, one of the best scenes in the film is when Balaji bonds with the people who has kept him as a captive.

Among the songs tuned by newcomers Vivek and Mervin’s Nenjukulla Nee... track is melodious while the song picturised on Sunny Leone’s Low Aana Life-u... is massy. The editing Praveen KL is apt, as he keeps scenes short and film racy at 2 hours and 2 minutes. On the whole, It's an easy watch that's bound to make you satisfied.

Vadacurry will entertain: Saravana Rajan



Jai-Swati starrer Vadacurry produced by Dhayanidhi Alagiri and his Meeka Entertainment releasing big through Varun Manian's Radiance Media opens today worldwide. In an exclusive chat, its director Saravana Rajan talks about his expectations and jitters.

 

How would you describe Vadacurry? From where did you get the idea?
Vadacurry is a fun entertainer. The idea came from my life or for that matter, it happens to everyone. It's about a guy who wants to get a better mobile phone and what happens to him along the way. There are lot of twists and turns in the movie.

You assisted Venkat Prabhu. So do we see lot of influence of his movies in Vadacurry?
Yes. I worked with him in Mankatha and Biriyani. Of-course, there will be some influence of him in my movie. But I also wanted to create my own style and so I have worked hard on it.

So you found the producer while working for Mankatha.
Yes. Mid-way through Mankatha, I wanted to narrate this script to them. They wanted me to wait till the movie is over. Once they heard the script, they green lighted it right away.

How did you decide on the hero Jai?
While I started writing the script, I did not write keeping Jai in mind. While half-way through the script, I realized Jai would be apt for the movie. If you watch Engeyum Epothum or Raja Rani, you can realize there is an innocence in Jai's face and that would suit for his role in Vadacurry.

Swati is someone we do not see that often in Tamil. How did you go for her?
The character Swati plays in Vadacurry is called Naveena. For Naveena, we looked at lot of girls. We were looking for girls who have done one or two movies. When someone suggested Swati, I thought she would suit as I wanted everyone to like the girl. Also with Subramaniapuram being a hit, I thought her luck would rub for Vadacurry too.

How about RJ Balaji for the friend character.
For Jai's friend character, I did not want to go for usual suspects. Because, people may be bored with them. So I thought RJ Balaji has not done too many friends role and I also thought he is good to tease the hero Jai whenever he makes a mistake. Also we have a good supporting cast.

Now, coming to the Sunny Leone who is one of the major USP of Vadacurry. How did you rope her in?
Sunny comes for a dream song sequence. We did not want to go for a typical item song girl. We wanted to go for someone who is very popular and who is a dream girl for many. Sunny is popular all over the world. So we went for her.

Yuvan was supposed to the music. Then you changed to newcomers Vivek Siva and Mervin Solomon. How did you find working with them?
Anirudh recommended Vivek and Mervin. When you work with newcomers, they give their best. That's what these two have done for the movie.

How about working with National Award winning Editor Praveen.
Editor Praveen has a special relationship with my Guru Venkat Prabhu. So he helped a lot and gave lot of suggestions. He cut several trailers. I'm very thankful to him for all his help for my first movie. Also one word about the cameraman Venkatesh. He worked as asst. for Velraj. He has worked very hard for this movie especially the second half.
