Surya's 25th film.It is not never told story in indian cinema but it is sure roaring entertainer where the screenplay is rocket-speed pace. Cop story with mass touch with a class hero Surya is treat to watch.
Story
Durai singam(Surya) is a inspector in his home town. His ambition is to keep a big departmental store in thuthukudi but for parents wish he works as inspector. Durai singam is jovial but a straight forward cop solves the local issues and problems in the town, enjoys his life with parents and his big bunch of relatives.
Anushka daughter of hero cycle business man comes to grandapa home for a holiday and instantly after some silly fight she falls in love with Surya. Surya too develops soft corner for her.on the parallel side prakash raj a goonda real estate businessman in chennai takes over the innocent land for cheap rate,if they dont go with the deal they will be punished . He also kidnaps the businessman,rich people kids,wife and make big money in the shadow of businessman.
In a real estate murder case prakash raj has been asked to sign in thuthukudi police station for 14 days as he is on parole, where durai singam is king in the town. Surya's honesty and prakash raj arrogance gets in to clash where he could not do Surya anything as he enjoys patronage of his homeplace.
So, Prakash raj with political influences brings /transfer durai singam to chennai where it is his fort. In beginning surya doesnt like the place and the rowdism attitude but finally he is back to form after the advice of his lover Anushka. He starts to clean the city with his dare devil acts which leaves prakash raj handicapped.At last he becomes the A.commissioner of chennai, makes prakash raj run for his life and finally truth triumphs.
Strength
It is surya as Durai singam rocks in the movie. Kudos to his body language and risky stunts. He is a cracker in action scenes with prakash raj and delight to watch him in love scenes with Anushka. lot of difference in terms of Anbu selvan and Durai Singam. Anushka gets a better footage in this movie instead of usual Glamour doll role. She looks beautiful and also performed well as she utilizes her role to the core. She is hot & sexy in songs.
Prakash raj performs well as it is a tailor -made role for him. Radha ravi and nasser proved their seniority in the screen. casting was appropriate in the movie. Movie has some loopholes but it overrides with fast and interesting screenplay where you have no time to identify mistakes. Hari's style of making a film gained some momentum. Photography by priyan is adequate for the mass entertainer .Editing travels at a rapid pace.
DSP music also add some pep to the movie though he rehearsed some of his old tunes."EN idhaym" ," kadhal vandhale"and "stole my heart" stays in your ears.Sun pictures marketing is big asset for Singam. Hari trademark of racy screenplay,cast and punches are there in movie as usual. Kanal kannan stunts are racy as it also a part of this movies success.
Weakness
First half could have been racy it is little slow when compared to 2nd part of the movie. Love scenes involving lead pair is good but some cute scenes would have added color to the screen. Vivek !!!!!!!!!!please stop doing the already-done comic activities(except the Erimali song in background) .we are expecting a rib tickling humorous performance in future.
All the hari movies have the big cast. It also remains the previous hari movies where the casting is similar. Time to change joint family backdrops hari!!!!. watch it for the six pack man surya, he will entertain you.
Verdict: 5/10(1 for surya,1 for Anuskha, 1 for stunts and songs, 1 for screenplay and 1 for sun pictures)
Movie punch: Singam is the king of masses
