I always like Baradwaj Rangan's (Hindu's film critic) reviews and elaborate dissection of technical aspects of the movie (songs, background score, cinematography, lyrics). BTW,
Rangan is an ardent fan of Ilayaraaja. Rangan wrote two reviews on Friday in his blog post. I would encourage our members to read an elaborate blog on Director Rudraiya and his multiple attempts to direct many movies. It's unfortunate to read about SP Muthuraman's advise to Kamalhaasan to focus only on commercial films. The second review is about "Kaaviyathalaivan" movie. What a bad choice!!!! It's a musical subject with wrong players. I am surprised how directors go about selecting their cast and technical artists.
