Hari is back with what he knows best - movie set in South Tamilnadu with loads, of action laced with family sentiment.This time in Vel he has Surya in a double role.Though the plot is very very predictable, credit goes to Hari for making it fast, engrossing & trying to steer away from cliches most of the time.
Charan Raj & Saranya are the parents of twin sons.One night in a train, a beggar kidnaps one of the babies for the jewellery lying on the baby.This Surya is taken up by a large family headed by Lakshmi in rural Dindigul.The other Surya grows up in Chennai with his parents.While the one in Dindigul becomes a typical zamindar heir with lots of temperament for settling things with the fist, the other is a composed detective in a private detective agency.
The city Surya falls in love with Asin ( 7 Up Swati- a T.V Anchor!!!) & after some hitches their romance gets going full swing.On one visit to Chennai, the rural Surya gets to see the city Surya & his parents.Similarly the city Surya comes to know about the other Surya's existence & hence decides to go over to the village & meet the other Surya & the family.
After some melodrama both the brothers swap places.The city Surya who is now in the village goes hammer & tongs to take revenge on the villain Kalabhavan Mani who had killed the other Surya's foster parents.Of course after all this there's the mandatory happy ending.
Surya looks convincing in both the roles.Asin is quite adequate & Kalabhavan Mani hams a lot.Music by Yuvan is a big let down.All in all a good diwali entertainer.
Rating- 2.5/5
