Naachiyaar is a 2018 Tamil action drama film written,
produced and directed by Bala. The film featured Jyothika in the titular role,
with G. V. Prakash Kumar and Ivana in other leading roles. The film tells the
tale of the police working to uncover the truth after a young man is accused of
assaulting his girlfriend. Featuring music composed by Ilaiyaraaja and
cinematography by Eashwar, the film began production during March 2017 and was
released on 16 February 2018.
As soon as we read the title card that says 'A Bala film',
we expect a dark and disturbing film with a realistic approach to life. But
with Naachiyaar, though the realism remains, it doesn't unsettle the viewers.
Naachiyaar stars Jyothika in the titular role, while GV Prakash Kumar and
newcomer Ivana play important supporting characters in this engaging crime
thriller. Without further adieu, let's jump straight into the review.
Bala doesn't waste any time, as the theme of the film is
established in the first couple of scenes itself. The characters are
introduced, and their purposes are conveyed immediately. The film starts off on
a comical note, with quite a few comedy scenes that don't drift away from the
main plot. From there, the story flows into the romantic portions involving GV
and Ivana. With an important twist right at the intermission point, the film
shapes into an exciting investigative thriller. From there, there is no stopping
Naachiyaar, as it keeps us on the edge of our seats, with twists and turns
finding their way at regular intervals. Some may even feel that the film's
content is not compelling enough until the intermission point, where the turn
of events takes place.
Having said that, we must commend Bala's ability in
redefining an actor by giving them a contrasting character from what they've
played so far. Jyothika is fantastic, as she masterfully plays the role of a
menacing, short-tempered and a bold cop, with a gracious heart. It is safe to
say that this is GV Prakash's finest performance of his career, and Bala has
potentially moulded him into the role of Kathavaraayan. He is an innocent, and
unimpeachable young man, whose personality takes shape with the flow of the story.
Ivana performs exceedingly well, to guarantee a convincing debut.
On the technical front, maestro Ilayaraja proves why he is
the undisputed king of background scoring as the music elevates the intensity
of the scenes. Cinematography by Eshwar and Sathish Surya's cuts are on point,
and they deliver exactly what is necessary. Bala's idea to keep this film at
just 100 minutes, proves to be an excellent decision as anything more than what
we saw could have seemed unnecessary. Though one might feel that the inclusion
of a song in the first half could have been avoided, the sequences that follow,
make up for it. From the second half on, the screenplay travels on
perspectives, and the director has made sure to convey a strong message through
the depiction of his characters. But if you find yourself distanced from the
basic plot, you might find it less exciting.
On the whole, with strong characterization, gripping
screenplay, and top-notch performances, Naachiyaar is an interesting ride of
emotions and realism.
