It is a difficult task to convey the idea of ​​the film to the audience before its release,But that’s where Saani kaayidham wins.From the posters to the trailer that released the end, it is clear to the audience what the film has to offer.

Saani Kaayidham has a special ‘buzz’ in Kollywood as Director Arun matheswaran‘s directorial venture after the Raw-Violent thriller Rocky. Saani kaayidham also caught the attention of the audience as ace director Selvaraghavan‘s acting debut.Keerthy Suresh‘s makeover and Swag were seen in an unusual way in the trailers.it is also an experimental film by Keerthy, who did not have any notable performances after Mahanati.

What works

Arun matheswaran is genius in the craft of handling violence in poetic way.He already prove that with rocky.The film, for instance, is segmented into chapters, and each chapter has a title written in large font.
The biggest strength of the film, on the surface, are the performances. The intensity in the violent scenes shown by keerthy is tremendous

keerthy suresh -just nailed it,After a very long time,she gives a great performance and she lived as Ponni throughout the film. That street Van scene she makes goosebumps.Especially climax portion speechless.

selvaraghavan has given his heart and soul to the film and he is in top form. He has convincingly portrayed his character incredibly in acting debut outing..

Yamini yagnamurthy‘s cinematography is one of the major USPs of the film. The shots have been composed in an unconventional manner and the lighting is also tremendous. Sam CS‘s music is commendable, giving solid support to the movie.

What not works

Saani kaayidham is a plain revenge drama,lacks emotional connection.It is simple and nothing you haven’t seen before. predictability and slow narrative style doesn’t keep viewer on edge.Other supporting actors were not convincing except for some known faces. The film has logical loopholes. Where are the cops? Why is the milieu deserted and looks like no man’s land?

Bottomline

A RAW-VIOLENT REVENGE DRAMA,

WATCHABLE!!!
