Now Ramachandran is exposed and is about to be arrested. Akhilan requests his father to surrender but however, he discovers his father’s ugly side and finds out that he and his brother are just a result their father’s failed experiment. His father states that he used the whole society as his research lab, through Energion. His leg is then crushed by a rock when he tries killing his own son and hence his father dies. Akhilan receives national recognition for bravery.
There is no doubt that Suriya's performance is very good. But the screen play might have been improved not to show heart transparent surgery. It might be difficult to see for the kids. The fight scene taken on roller coaster ride was too lengthy. Eventhough comedy and romance was there in the movie, only scary part can remain on the people's mind after watching this movie. Mattraan Matri Edukka Vendiya Padam.
