Billa

Last Sunday I watched Billa at Innovative Multiplex, Bangalore. For 5+ months in Bangalore, this is the first time I saw such huge crowed for a Tamil movie and even House full board (Trust me I'm not a Ajith fan).

Hero : Ajith
Herione : 9thara, Namitha
Director: Vishnuvardan
Music: Yuvan
Cinemotography : Nrivsha (sorry if misspelled)
Action: Don't remember his name
Story: Already 3 movies with the same story are there.

Hats off to Vishnuvardan for making such a decent(not good, still some holes are there) screen play. Even though most of us know the story, the screen play didn't make us sleepy. Yuvan too did a decent job. My name is Billa song didn't match to its older counterpart. Still it has the flavour of the old song. Vethilaya potendi and seval kodi are good.
character changes in new billa are
1.Manaromma and Thengai srinivasan characters have been removed. Just one adopted
son for velu.
2.A Friend(santhanam) characters has been introduced for velu

Surprise Surprise, Ajith didn't talk Punch dialoge. Ajith really acted well, esp in the Billa character.Even though the director tried to have a serious introduction for 9thara, Introduction of 9thara makes us to laugh. I personally feel 9thara looks good in traditional Indian dresses than Bikini. Prabu and other police guy (I dont remember his name, acted in arindhu ariyamalum and pattiyal as police) have acted well.

2 Characters have not been used well. 1. Rahman - The main villan, 2. Namitha. I feel there is no need for Namitha character.

The director has a good screen sense, for example, Since Prabhu is bit bulk in most of the scene he will be eating chocolates. Niravsha has did an wonder full cinematography

The action is too good. Unlike in recent movies where hero pulls a tractor silencer in one hand or kick a tractor tyre, the action sequence are really good with very fast movements. None of the fight sequence last more than 2 mins( or may be it was too good so that i couldn't guess the time correctly). I would say in recent times i have never seen a Tamil movie with such a good action. Ajith has did some good action scenes, the car chasing and jumping in the bridge (If they are graphics, then the graphics team has did a great job)


Some major holes in the screen play;
1. How prabhu knows about the look alike of Billa and that too in malaysia
2. How prabhu gets access to the malaysian govt database and deletes some record when he is a DSP in Indian police
3.When the entire Billa gang is transferred to prison only 2 guards will accompany them. Where as in some earlier scenes when Billa was transferred to a prison a huge convey of police will come.

I'm repeating the same once again, I'm not ajith fan.

You can watch this movie once for its qulity
