Thesilly story centers around a young smuggler Deva (Surya) jetting aroundthe world on smuggling trips for his mentor Das (Prabhu) and making theIndian Customs look like a bunch of buffoons.
A long-hairedcartoon character Akashdeep Sehgal plays the villain Kamalesh. Ifsomeone were to stick a tail to this Akashdeep character, it’d becompletely at home in the Vandalur Zoo as would Jegan who plays Deva’ssidekick Chitti.
Not content merely with making the Indian lawenforcement authorities look like a bunch of blithering idiots in thisceaseless affront of a movie, Ayan director Anandadds insult to injury by bizarrely rewarding one of the professionalsmugglers with the plum government job of ProfessionalConsultant/Officer. Don’t even try to justify this as a reward forassistance rendered in the cause of justice. Some reward. Some justice.
Surya - Mediocre Show
Suryaonce again delivers a embarrassingly poor performance. Whether on asmuggling mission in Congo, racing around like a maniac in Malaysia orcavorting with his lady love Tamanna, this fella disappoints. Big time.
Even Surya’s dialog delivery lacks pizzazz.
Worse, the clown doesn’t even seem to make an effort, perhaps in asinine hopes that his broad chest will deliver the goods.
At this rate, Surya will have as much success in Kollywood as his old man Sivakumar had in his heydays, which is very little.
Tamanna
Tamanna plays Yamuna, Surya’s lady love in the movie.
Given the sophomoric nonsense of a story, the Mumbai lass doesn’t have much of a role in Ayan except to act like a retard at frequent intervals.
WhileTammana is without doubt a better actress than the ugly Kollywoodtrinity of Nayantara, Trisha and Shriya, we wouldn’t put her in theMeera Jasmine, Sandhya, Navya Nair or Padmapriya category.
By the way, we found Tamanna’s smile bewitching. Sweeeet.
Music
We were not entranced by Ayan’s music either.
