It'd be hard to say that the movie was boring due to its sluggishness or GVM's usual style of romantic sequences but the fact that GVM has come out of his comfort zone of making soft tales is appreciable.
The overall film looks like an obvious remake of Vijay's Nenjinilae which came more than 20 years ago and with a style/ mixture of Angaadi Theru + Pudupettai/Godfather with more screenplay touches of Vetrimaaran & Lokesh especially when the film tries to bring in the multiverse concept by introducing Naayagan's characters as the plot revolves in the same Mumbai region, I think that's where Tamil cinema is travelling towards which got ignited by Lokesh's LCU.
The most interesting part is that the film doesn't look like the usual GVM movie and does have elements in the plot that keeps you engaged despite its slowness/sluggishness.
And Simbu has done a decent part in this film after a very long time, that's appreciable too
and Rahman's music does play a big role in it but I feel still it could've been bettered up.
Overall, this is definitely a one-time watch but I hate the concept of making 2nd part just for the sake of it.
