Sundeep Kishan who is on a low in his career is back with a crime thriller called Nagaram.
The story of the film is based on four parallel stories and how everyone including Sundeep Kishan, a reckless youth, and Regina Cassandra get engrossed in a kidnap drama involving a deadly goon’s son.
One of the biggest plus points of the film is the suspense that is generated throughout the film. The film has some stunning screenplay which is superbly executed by the director Lokesh. Sundeep Kishan sheds his hero image and becomes a character in the film. Right from his looks to his taut performance, Sundeep slips into his careless role with ease and gives a sincere performance. Young hero Shri, who did the role of a software engineer is good.
The second half gets exciting as every character gets involved in the proceedings quite convincingly. The film has many subplots which have been mixed well in the screenplay. Also, the way various crimes that are carried out in a city like Chennai have been shown very realistically.
Nagaram is high on technical aspects. The camerawork by Selvakumar is astounding as the crime thriller is showcased in a realistic manner. The way Chennai and its interiors have been showcased looks superb on screen.
Coming to the director Lokesh, he has done an excellent job with his narration. Overall Nagaram is one film which will bring Sundeep Kishan back in the game for sure.
