Story

The film begins in 1988, where a Spy agent has been branded as a traitor and this makes him go into exile. His son Vijay Prakash (Karthi) is introduced as a police officer in the present day and is haunted by the shadow of being a traitor’s son.

When Samira (Laila), an activist, starts campaigning against the privatization of mysterious water body deaths, he tries to find out the murderers only to realize a complex web of lies and deceit that has put the nation under danger.

The super efforts of super spy in exile (Karthi again) to stop an evil Rathore (Chunky Pandey) and his criminal plans will form the rest of the Story.

On-screen performances:

The film, Sardaar is all about Karthi’s one-man show, Nayantara, O2 Fame Rithu Rocks gave a awesome performance. Chunky Pandey essayed the antagonist like regular Bollywood villains we get to see in Tamil films.

Raashi Kanna and Rajisha are just ok in their given roles. Laila did his role perfectly and this can be a new start to her second innings.

Off-screen talents:

G. V. Prakash is the second hero of this film through his BGM. It haunts you in so many parts and makes you connect to the social issue which we fail to address in our normal life. After Abhimanyudu and Shakthi, P.S. Mithran again came up with this drama, which addresses current situations in society. We can clearly see the research and efforts he made.

The cinematography by George C. Williams is good and the editing part by Ruben could be more better and would have been trimmed 10-15 mins easily and also the production values are very good.

Positive Points:

• Karthi’s outstanding performance in a dual role
• Screenplay
• Background Music by GV Prakash
• Last 20 mins of the Film

Negative Points:

• Too much cinematic liberty
• Movie length
• Chunky Pandey who played Villain

Overall Verdict:

On the whole, the film Sardar is an engaging and entertaining Spy drama that neither leaves you awestruck nor disappoints you.

Rating: 3/5
