Reviewing " AAYIRATHIL ORUVAN"

"Am Anitha, archaelogical department", says reema sen. Anyone who knew she could be this glamorous would have hired her ages back. Until upto the first half, karthi seems to have no part in the movie, except fighting with reema and trying to romance with andrea! Andrea, a worthy choice, has played her part well!
The director has gone well into the history and the trouble he has taken seems to be worth it. The unknown depths of the Chola and the Pandia kingdom may not be a fact, but has the expected effect on the audience. Parthiban, as the Chola king, is also a good choice and has played his part well.
The 7 problems faced by the travellers while travelling to the chola kingdom, how the overcome that, what is reema's part as the leader, why is karthi involved in this, does andrea find her father?? The answers to these questions is the basic story all about!
Andrea seems to be getting all the things right at the end of the day with her constant reference to the ola chuvadi. The two ladies of the movie fighting on one particular scene, is fun to watch. karthi looks like he is the same as in paruthiveeran again, his style, attitude, mannerisms!
The fact that the chola kingdom still exists in the Ming Hua island in Vietnam sounds unbeleivable. The audience seems to be expecting only the remnants of the kingdom, but it comes as a shock to see that the entire empire exists, awaiting the return of the young little prince of the chola kingdom who was sent away for his safety!
The return of the prince in turn would mean that the kingdom would grow up and see light! The entire story for this return of the prince is painted and the king seems to be referring the paintings alone, as in the ola chuvadi!
The war between the chola and the pandia can be called as a dramatic end to the movie. Where karthi goes at the end, is unsaid, and the audience are dumb-struck and dont realise the end of the movie until the lights in the theatre are switched on, and leave the theatre in daze, not knowing if it was a good movie or not!
Selvaraghavan could have completed the movie with a proper climax instead of an open-ending! Audience seem to be getting restless waiting for the movie to end in the second half which is a drag! G.V.Prakash's muic is outstanding, un mela aasa thaan song seems to get the score.
