Block Buster Movie of the Year 1992... Rajnikanth lights up the screen in both the comic and serious portions. Kushboo serves as a nice foil for him.

Radharavi, with a mannerism of scratching the back of his neck, is impressive when he asks for forgiveness from Manorama. 'Nizhalgal' Ravi is an effective wolf in sheep's clothing.
