"SAROJA saaman nikalo". Do you remember this line. - Then this is where the title SAROJA was picked up by Venkat Prabhu for his second directorial venture. After watching movies like Muniyaandi...., Satyam, Chi Thu sorry Dhaam Dhoom, this movie came as a biiiiiiiiiiiigggggg surprise to me. I had planned to watch this in local Chengalpattu theatre but happy that i got to see it in Mayajaal First Day Night Show.

This movie is a Racy thriller. Right from the word go , this movie would be sending chills down your spines. Oh my god did i say that. Well this is what i had thought when i was seated in the theatre just before the movie started, but there was something else in store for me "COMEDY". Such a beautiful and practical narration. The movie starts in a quite distorted way (this is what i felt for the first few minutes). But as the movie proceeded, the director proved me wrong. He has tried out differently by blending different stories together and providing the right mix to the audience. Right from the introduction of the Heroes, the comedy time starts. The way everyone behaves even during crunch situation just adds beauty to the film. The way Premji adjustes his hair just before he openes the eye knot of the girl whom he tries to save, the way SPB Charan is tugged on both sides of the hole in which he is struck, the way of introduction of Shiva (i dont know how it will be to look at this guy in a serious role.), the courage the new comer shows, and few of the dialogues that still lingers in my mind.

"Yen sir intha Train Chennai ku pogatha?"

"Sir enkitta rendu purse iruku. Naa venumna ungalukku oru purse tharen sir"

"Rendu Andhra brothersum nalla hyderabad biriyani thinga thaan laiku."

"Sir rendu perum damages share pannipeengala."

I know this would make no sense to those who have not got the chance to watch the movie. But once you see the movie, you would just laugh it out. The other persons who are to be congragulated are Yuvan and Sakthi Saravanan. Yuvan, for giving the right music and the right inclusion of background scores especially when Premji sees a girl. And Sakthi Saravanan for his Camera work. More than half of the movie have been shot at night, this might have been really tough. On the whole, this movie is a comedy racy thriller and the Director is back with a Big Bang. This movie according to me deserves a 5 star. There might have been many flaws in the film, but to me i could just notice the plus in it. Congrats to Venkat Prabhu on SAROJA.

I still remember, in some Chennai 600028 function Rajnikanth made a promise to Venkat Prabhu that he and KamalHaasan will surely attend a similar kind of function if his second movie proves to be a success. This is going to turn true for Venkat Prabhu.

Kudos to entire team for giving out a good film.
