    Vow! what a great movie. If anyone want to direct a movie or compose music or to act, don't go anywhere.. Just watch this movie.

    The film starts with a fantastic title..a traffic jam in the background (many thanks to Ilayaraja, the other hero) one of the best title made by ever and with wonderful scenes and songs and ends with a great climax.

    In the 90's my dream was to become an engineer but after seeing this movie I had changed my plan to become a director like him.

    If anyone says that which movie is best than Agni Natchatiram then I will give all my wealth
