Granted that there is not much of a story here but it is the slick way the film unfolds that keeps you riveted to your seats. Now the gang from sheer admiration for the family turns into a revenge spree, which leads to a gory end. But nobody comes to bail them out, and the guys realize that they have been used by the political family. Azhagar to probably impress the family, takes the lead in committing the murder. Meanwhile the councilor?s brother uses them to murder a party rival, promising they will be bailed out. The Azgar- Thulasi romance creates a fissure in the gang. Azhagar, the romantist falls in love with the Somu?s daughter Thulasi (Swathy). They do the odd jobs and strike a rapport with the ex-councilor? Somu?s brother (Samudrakani), a wheeler ?dealer. The background is the bonding between four unemployed poor youths- Azhagar (Jai), Paramar (director Sasikumar), Kasi (Kanja Karuppu) and a handicapped boy living in Subramaniapuram area. The film is set in Madurai of the 80?s, and made like a Quentin Tarantino style revenge-and-redemption saga. It is a gritty and grim look at four youths growing up in Madurai who due to unemployment is forced by circumstances to turn into killers. Debutant director Sasikumar who has graduated from Bala and Ameer school of film making has come out with the stark realistic Subramaniapuram.
