This decision by the villagers, angers the Minister who exacts his revenge on the village.

Why did the villagers refuse to leave the village, what did the minister do take his revenge, how did the village become a model village forms the rest of the story.

Analysis:

Directed by JVR, the movie has an interesting premise.  The director has presented his idea of how an idealistic village should be and on ways to solve a few existing problems in the society.

Harikumar is brilliant as an upright honest man, who is respected by the villages.

He has got into the skin of the character and has delivered what was expected from him.

Roshan Basheer and Ashika Ashokan are good in their respective role. The chemistry between the pair is impressive.

Radha Ravi as usual shines with his seasoned acting. Rest of the cast including Ravi Mariya,  Aruldoss and Kausalya are apt in their respective roles.

Cinematography by S S Ravimaran Sivan is one of the major highlights of the movie.

Biju Jacob’s songs and BGM suits the theme of the movie well.

Rating: 3.3/5
