Velayudham Review

Hansika looks cute, appears confident, and is well cast as the

spirited Vaidehi. Her comedy scenes with Vijay are a scream especially

the scene when she comes in western clothes to impress her lover.

Genelia does justice to her role and Santhanam’s jokes are funny.

Saranya Mohan is perfect in the sister role.

One major plus for the movie is Vijay Antony's songs which are

melodious and mass. The Vijay introductory song Sonna Puriyadhu..,

Chillaxxx.. and Molachu Moonu... are the pick of the lot.The first half

of the movie appeals very well with family audiences, which has good

mixture of few action scenes, comedy, romance and so on. However as the

second half starts, the transformation of Velu to Velayudham has been

showcased well without any logical traps. Raja has also ensured to even

finish the movie well with a gripping climax, unveiling a new Vijay for

all, who can portray emotions like never seen before. The way vijay

carries out his emotions, comedy, action sequences, and ofcourse his

dance in the movie is a biggest plus

On the otherside, the film is far too long, especially the second

half. Shorter in length, Velayudham would have been even more crisp. But

still it is a perfect outing with family, if you are looking for time

pass entertainment.

Vijay has ensured to deliver a neat commercial cinema yet again.

Along with Vijay, a special thanks to Raja for his good and gripping

screenplay, Vijay Antony for his peppy songs, and also to Suba who had

penned good dialogues, which has lifted the movie to great heights now.

Verdict: Paisa Vasool and Entertainment Guaranteed. Its Thalapathy Diwali this time !!
