Aegan - what is it all about?

After the stylish Billa, a lot was expected from Ajith's Aegan. After flaunting a stylish look and feel in Aegan, here comes Ajith..he definitely has put on more weight..no six packs..instead there is a single pack :)and a big one..Aegan was widely touted as a copy of the Sharukh Khan flick "Main Hoon Naa" and even if first time director Raju Sundaram, the erstwhile dance master (I think he should stick to his dancing)denied that it was anything but a copy many parts of the movie definitely reminded me of its hindi counterpart in many places. Ajith a.k.a Shiva goes back to college in Ooty as a "student" to find out about Ram Prasad, the once accomplice of the deadly villain, John Chinappa, played by Suman (that wig looked so out of place on him)and then turning an approver as he does not agree with Chinappa's way of handling things. Chinappa is all out to kill Ram Prasad but fails in his attempts to do so. In the meanwhile, Ajith (in mufty) lands in the Ooty college where Chinappa's daughter Pooja (Pia Bajpai of Poi solla porom) is studying as he is sure that the Father and Daughter would definitely meet. There Ajith also finds out that his step-brother (Navdeep of Arinthum Ariyamalum) studies in the same college. The rest of the story is about how Ajith fights John, reunites Ram Prasad with his daughter and how he himself unites with his family.. The movie has a lot of action.. Ajith needs to improve a lot on his comic skills.. some of hanifa's comic scenes were so predictable.. well.. how many times could I give the restroom excuse to go out.. that brings us to Nayanthara.. now this lady definitely needs to start acting instead of posing and showing off her tanned body.. Iam surprised at the way this teacher dresses to work.. anyway.. Nayanthara needs to start doing some serious roles or she cannot survive for long in this industry or the only choice she would have left would be to become an item girl which by the way is also very lucrative:).. showing off your newly tanned body will not take you anywhere.. Suman could have done with out that awful wig.. his look in Sivaji was great.. Jayaram seriously overdoes the comic bits many times.. overall a very average fare.. but well if you are a die-hard "Thala" Ajith fan.. then go and watch it for him.. but leave your brains behind.
