The story is based on a ‘Clock’ Time machine which freezes everyone. Suriya is in a triple avatar as twin brothers and as a son. The story is intriguing and you will only see Suriya everywhere. As he is the protagonist as well as the antagonist.
Plot:
The film starts with Dr. Sethuraman (Suriya), who was a watchmaker and a brilliant scientist. He discovers the time machine. He was living with wife, Priya (Nithya Menen) and son. Suriya, who also playing the evil avatar Athreya arrives to steal the magic watch. To safeguard his wife Priya and his baby, Sethuraman shoots himself. He dead only to save the baby and the machine from evil Athreya. Athreya is severely wounded and went into a coma. He woke up only after 26 years and finds his brother son Mani (again Suriya).

Direction, Music, and Screenplay:
Director and writer Vikram Kumar have come up with an interesting concept which is well portrayed by Suriya. Vikram has dealt the story very sensibly and gives a good amount of Fun and intense situations. The visuals of freezing people are quite fascinating. A R Rahman’s must is commendable especially the background sounds. The music is good enough to groove Suriya fans. Tirru is good with the screenplay things and the picturesque locations are larger than life. His work really deserves a clap.
The last word:
A must watch for all the Science fiction maniacs. Though you may be feeling this film just like ‘Mr. India’ but here the person is visible and only people freezes. A good movie to go for this weekend.
