Savi Review: Packed with exciting moments, Divya delivers the best performance of her career.

Savi Evaluation: Divya Khossla’s acting career has mostly consisted of supporting roles in films where she is either the leading lady or the adorable, effervescent girl. However, we will be able to see her for the first time in the thriller Savi, which debuted on large screens today. Abhinay Deo is the director of Savi, which has Anil Kapoor and Harshvardhan Rane in the key parts. Is Savi worth your money and time, then? Read our review below to find out.

The main character of the film is Savi (Divya Khossla), who resides in Liverpool, England, along with her son and husband Nakul (Harshvardhan Rane). Nakul is detained on suspicion of killing his employer; however, Savi maintains her husband’s innocence. Nakul’s life in prison is in jeopardy because of an event, so Savi organises a prison break and tries to save her husband. What happens next and whether she succeeds in doing so make up the remainder of the narrative.

The 2008 French thriller Pour Elle (Anything For Her) is adapted into Savi. Savi is a brand-new movie for me, even though I haven’t seen Pour Elle. But based on the French movie’s trailer, we can conclude that Abhinay Deo’s most significant alteration is the gender switching of the characters. In the Hindi version, the wife saves her husband, however in Pour Elle, it’s the wife who gets arrested and the husband tries to save her.

Although the film gets off to a nice start, you’ll notice that it moves slowly. However, the film gets up once Savi meets Dr. Paul (Anil Kapoor) and begins her studies on prison break. The movie improves significantly after the interval, with several sequences that will have you gripping your seat to see what will happen next. At the film’s trailer debut, producer Mukesh Bhatt declared, “This film will shock you.” Yes, it does, as Deo has skillfully described the finale, leaving us guessing as to what and how Savi has accomplished.

Actors’ Performances in Savi
In terms of performances, the film features Divya Khossla’s best performance to date. She is very outstanding and demonstrates her ability to play these kinds of characters. We hope to see more of her in roles as strong as these following Savi. Anil Kapoor has a lengthy appearance in the movie and sports several different appearances. We must admit that the seasoned actor has excelled in some of the best dialogue and sequences that have been assigned to him. He’ll also make you chuckle aloud. Although he doesn’t have much to do, Harshvardhan Rane performs a fantastic job in his position.

Savi Soundtracks

Regarding music, the track Khol Pinjra is featured as a background score during significant scenes, and it undoubtedly has an impact.

Final Verdict of Savi Review

Savi is an excellent thriller all around that will have you gripped till the very end, particularly in the second part, with its shocking conclusion. See for yourself how talented Divya Khossla is by watching this one!

Viduthalai Part 2 movie review: Vijay Sethupathi shines in a highly sermonising story

Viduthalai Part 2 movie review: Vijay Sethupathi shines in a highly sermonising story

Viduthalai Part 2 movie review: Vijay Sethupathi again puts up a class act with the Vetrimaaran film fails to live up to part 1.
Viduthalai Part 2 movie review: Director Vetrimaaran often portrays the underrepresented sections of society, including the poor, working class, and marginalized. His films depict the harsh realities of life, focusing on themes like caste, class divide, corruption, and systemic oppression. And while these form the core themes of his films, his characters stand out for their brilliant emotional depth and complexity. When Viduthalai Part 1 came out in 2023, it not only established Soori as a highly talented actor, but also spoke about the emergence of extremist groups and where they stem from.

Viduthalai Part 2, which was released on December 20, takes off from the first part with the clash between the tribals and government forces and revolves around Perumal (Vijay Sethupathi), the leader of the extremist group Makkal Padai (People’s Army). While part 1 was about Kunaresan, this moves beyond him to the main figure in contention.

What is Viduthalai Part 2 about

The police nab Perumal, and we get told this school teacher’s back story and why he became who he is. Shaped by the communist ideology, Perumal fights for what he believes is unjust, and the director has been quite clever in showcasing empathy within the revolutionary movement as well. As the story of Perumal unfolds, there is a heavy infusion of politics and emotionally charged dialogues to make us empathise with Perumal and his fight.

Director Vetrimaaran has also added many intricate political and social touches to the characterisations. For instance, Perumal’s wife, fellow comrade Mahalakshmi (Manju Warrier), cuts her hair short because she feels long hair would make her more fragile. We are also shown how Karuppan (Ken Karunas) bestows a name on himself. We are also shown the power play between those in power and those who are weak and how one exploits the other at will.

On the whole, Viduthalai Part 2 seems to be an ode to people like Vaathiyar aka Perumal, who stand up for a cause and the downtrodden. Perumal embraces lal salaam and, along with it, renounces many of the toxic values that society holds dear. For instance, he marries Mahalakshmi, who was married before, but he never questions her about it – it’s inconsequential to him.

What Viduthalai Part 2 lacks

While Viduthalai Part 2 has many aspects that one appreciates, it’s not as stellar as Part 1 as it gets very sermonising. In part 1, Soori’s character was beautifully crafted, and one expected to see more of him in part 2, and that was a letdown. Viduthalai Part 2 is all about Vijay Sethupathi and he has carried the film able on his shoulders. Unfortunately, Vetrimaaran, the astute writer, seemed to be missing in this film and that was disappointing. Viduthalai Part 2 carries a strong ideological theme and is another socially relevant film from Vetrimaaran.
