Story:
Suriya’s Anjaan is an action-packed
thriller that begins at Kanyakumari with stunning introduction of super
cool and classy Raju Bhai [Suriya]. As Anjaan is a gangster flick set in
Mumbai, Raju Bhai and his gang speaks a lot of Hindi dialogues during
the first ten minutes. Then comes Chandru [Vidyut Jammwal], Raju Bhai’s
partner in crime and Jeeva [Samantha], Raju Bhai’s love. However, there
are set of goons to fight with Raju Bhai and here is a big surprise for
you in the form of interval bang. In the second half enters Raju Bhai’s
brother Krishna [Suriya in dual role] with a hand stick. Krishna seeks
the revenge of Raju Bhai’s death. After few predictable twists watch
Anjaan in theaters for climax…
Performance:
Suriya has re-lived his
roles as a handsome, good looking, revenge seeking young man after
Ghajini. His dialogue delivery, dance also singing when comes to Anjaan
are master piece. On the whole it is Suriya all over Anjaan.
Samantha is glamorous.
All the romantic portions between Suriya and Sam are feast to watch on
screen. They have danced well and all the songs are colourful.
Vidyut Jammwal and his team have performed well. Their correct lip-sink for Tamil dialogues is subjected to perfection.
Soori was not offered much length, but
he has done his parts well. Others namely Brahmanandam, Rajpal Yadav,
Manoj Bajpai, Dalip Tahil are okay.
Technical Analysis:
Director Lingusamy has made a colorful
and acceptable film with very routine story. Screenplay could have been
better to keep audiences hooked.
Yuvan Shankar Raja has delivered out of
the box scores. While Anjaan songs are already chart-busters, background
is fresh and kick-ass. Yuvan’s BGM has taken Anjaan to next level.
Anjaan has fantastic visuals. Santosh
Sivan’s camera works are the one to watch out for. Professionalism is
evident in every frame of Suriya’s Anjaan. Especially, the action
sequences and songs are well captured.
Editing by Anthony could have been better. As the length is one of the barriers for Anjaan. Trimming is suggested.
UTV and Thirupathi Brothers have to be lauded for high production values and good promotions for Anjaan and Sikander in Telugu.
Analysis:
Anjaan is a neatly pictured film with a
predictable script. Little more concentration on the screenplay and
twists along with the appropriate placement of songs could have been
worked well with Anjaan.
Anjaan starts with a good pace, but
slows down by the end of first half after plotting the characters.
Interval is a bang and the climax could have been better after bearing
many fight sequences in the second half and passable first half.
Suriya’s Anjaan may not be a pick from the lot for family audiences, as there are plenty of action sequences.
Final Verdict: Anjaan is a treat for action movie lovers and Suriya fans…
