Thambikku Intha Ooru
Thambikku Indha Ooru is the routine subject that has been ground and reground innumerable times in Tamil cinema with different stars. This time around director Badri (Veerappu fame) tries the path that has often been trodden with Bharath, Sana Khan and Madalasa in lead cast with a title which bears resemblance to superstar’s yesteryear hit.
Bharath runs a five star hotel in Singapore who falls in love with a Squash champion Sana Khan who accepts his love but decides to settle down in marital bliss only after she achieves a considerable position in squash. Meanwhile in a birthday party, Bharath realizes that his biological parents are not the ones with whom he has been raised for so long. He sets out on a mission (!) to unravel the mystery shrouding his lineage and reaches Chennai. The events that follow his Chennai trip form the rest of this unexciting film.

Story till this point moves at a languid pace. Prabhu appears fifteen minutes before the interval and energizes the film for some time and with his fading out, it falls flat again. Whenever Prabhu materializes, story surfaces and vice versa. Director could have just shown this part alone and the duration of our ordeal would have been considerably lessened. On the whole, the narration lags, screen play meanders and the film flounders.
Now, a secret breaks out that Akil is an orphan. But then, the foster reveals that his biological parents are still alive somewhere near outskirts of Chennai. On the course of searching for his parents, he also tries to convince Divya’s dad, which isn’t an easy thing to accomplish with. Meanwhile, he comes across a hooligan Kumaraswamy (Prabhu).
With the intentions of mingling so many plots, Badri tests your patience irksomely.
Nothing much to analyze on the film’s narrative or technical aspects. The only hope was Dharan, who had delivered some good tunes in the past, but dashes down our hopes. The cinematography looks is over-bleached at many sequences and editing is quite amateur.
Bharath has to strictly undergo a crash course in acting. If he has plans about sustaining his presence in film industry, he must get serious and not so careless. Choosing a right script, underplaying his role would surely win him credits as he has the ability to do it. Sana Khan and Madhalasa are meant for nothing while Prabhu’s involvement for the sake of monetary gains isn’t worth appreciable. Vivek’s ridiculous comedy tracks are stereotyped and may not receive felicitations.
Finally, ‘Thambikku Indha Ooru’ has no chances of surviving at box office and has nothing to offer for audiences.
