This is a film that is feels like going on a long voyage with a full tank.  The director deserves a reward of a foreign bike for making us feel like writing a travelogue.

The hero, a self-centered man; the heroine who is also interested in other's welfare.  In making these two who are at opposite poles come together, the hero loses his heart to the heroine.  The heroine is successful in separating the hero and the selfishness in him.  The story is the voyage the hero undertakes in looking for his love and what he learns in the process.

The face of philosophy peeps into every other scene like reciting the lines of Zen books. The screenplay that narrates several short stories about birth, death, feeling for others, separation, fundamentalism and tolerance and gives us a feeling of a pleasant experience in us is something very new.

Looking for the heroine Kamalini, the acting of the new face hero Sarvanandh is first class.  One can see in Sarvanandh the elements of subtle acting that is the hallmark of Karthik.  The facial expressions that reflect the meaning of the message he learns after every incident are very enjoyable.

Ravi Krishna has just about got on to the right route.  He has become good in getting the right delivery of dialogues and right expressions that fit the characters.  Becoming an acquaintance just to steal the hero's bike and becoming a dear friend of the hero later, is simply poetry.  The scenes of making money out of the milk can in the stolen bike and selling the can itself on the way bring down the roof of the theatre with laughter.

Loosing his wife who was wearing jewelry all over her body and riding pillion on Ravi Krishna's bike earns M.S.Bhaskar a prolonged applause.

Ilankannan who has written brilliant dialogues that suit the beautiful screenplay deserves our appreciation.

The trinity of Vidyasagar, Mani Sarma and E.S. Murthy has composed the music for the film.  But who has composed the songs and who has done the background score is not clear.  But they are very good.  Editing by V.T.Vijayan and cinematography by S.A.Vincent have certainly added value to Ravi Krishna's efforts.
