Survival of the Fittest
"Pudupettai" is SelvaRaghavan's latest venture. The director of 7/G teams up once again with Superstar Rajni's son-in-law Dhanush (after their blockbuster 'Kadal Kondain'. Cast includes Raghavan's would-be (or already?) wife Sonia Aggarwal and Sneha. When dubbed, the title first thought was "Kottha Peta" true translation of the tamil title meaning "New City". But the dubbers, fell prey to the mass value of the name of the area "Dhoolpet". The film can be thought of Raghavan's version of that Mani Ratnam classic "Nayakan".
Fitting to its tag line "Survival of the fittest", the movie presents before us a proof of concept for the Darwinian Hypothesis. On the same lines,only the fit ( read ... fairly insenstive ) can survive this gory violent-glorified mass flick. I am not sure if a movie will be made again with this amount of violence ( I curse my vocabulary, for not having enough synonyms for this word) For once CBFC rated A certificate's limitations are exposed. I have just sent an e-mail asking the Censor board to create another category "V". This is one helluva hard-hitting dark movie.
As anyone can guess from the title, the hero enters a new city for his survival; after a catastrophic personal bereavement. Forced into a situation in which he ought use his latent talent; he undergoes a mutation (not chromosomal or genetic but a behavioural one).From there on Natuaral Selection takes over.In this tumultuous journey he encounters Sneha( a prostitute-Parallel with Nayakan again).Later on Sonia Aggarwal. There are one or two intimate scenes. Naa. You cant term them hot. They are naturally natural (raw).
Special mention of the background score. As expected Junior I Raja ( Yuvan Shankar) gave his all. Songs wont stand out as they blend into the movie. Commedy has no room at all.Dhanush excels in a tailor-made role but for Gossake why doesnt his tailor suggest him to improve his measurements?
Movie is a strict no-no for fairer sex and weaker hearts. And anyone with a criminal streak of even 0.012 nano meter thickness is bound to turn into a full time criminal with this.
The film offers a complete and comprehensive tutorial on:
1. how to sell dope
2. how to cut off a right hand
3. how to murder
and a lot more.
The 1st song of the movie goes something like this "Maa Area Loniki Raavaddu ...". Heed the advice. Dont go anyway near Dhoolpet.
Note : The thickness of my criminal streak is 0.013 nm. Want some dope? Stretch your right hand!
