gautam... a name which everyone would like to see on big screen, this guy holds a name in many people, that's the reason why i made time to see this flick.

OK, into the story.........

venkatesh (sarath) , a med rep of alpha pharmaceuticals is happily married with kalyani(andrea) and the have a kid ,nanda( some toddler),

the kid turns out to be a level one diabetic , which worries kalyani and deceides not want to have a second child and denies him from making love to her....which pisses of venky a bit.........


next he meets "geetha" (jo) on the emu, and one more thing trains play a great role in the movie so learn to like them ,............... TRAINS ROCK.

they get close go for dinner and he rescues her from an auto which was kidnapping her and beats the goons ..........................

they plan to make out on a resort in ecr and while they going to start , MILIND "PLEASE LET ME ENTER KOLLYWOOD" SOMAN enters beats him up takes his money and numbers address and ties up sarath kumar and rapes jo.....................................

they return to their respective homes and sarath tells he fell down from the train and is injured due to that.......................

lawrence(milind) starts extracting money from venky and is blackmailed that if he doesn't give the money , jo's hubby would be notified .

the story goes and 8 lakh rupees are extorted from sarath , all his savings for his diabetic kid.............................

INTERMISSION

THANK GOD IT IS INTERMISSION.....................

Upton the interval the movie is slow paced and boring with very romantic dialogues and a role which sarath kumar isn't fit for, the audience gets bored and shouts are very clearly heard from most of the theatre.

back to the story,

after all the money is extracted , venky confesses to kalyani and kalyani leaves home which puts sarath in tension and nanda is in want of his mom.

the next day,

sarath kumar sees milind soman come to his office and hides from him and follows him to his destination on reaching a point he is "shocked" milind soman enters the call taxi which had taken him to the resort where he got robbed..................and when he gets out , along with him jo also steps out , so now the plot is clear;y defined , they are a gang whose modus operandi is what happened to sarath kumar.

meanwhile ,
kalyani returns home and venky tells her about the gang and vows to get the money back and....................................

the story picks up faster than a "shikansen" from this point.............gautam menon..........this is what the audience was waiting for ,all this while.................................

venky vows to get back all the money he has lost and asks kalyani to have faith in him , which she has.........

now venky gets an illegal gun , starts following the gang and he sees that another person has fallen into their trap, he follows them to the same damn resort where he got robbed...................................

he sneaks and before lawrence can enter the room, he hits him hard and enters the room and tells the guy everything and milind soman regains consciousness and fierce fight follows and when the guy who is trapped tries to go out the call taxi driver stabs him and in the process milind soman is badly stabbed, jo is shot, the driver is shot in the leg and stabbed and the guy who has been trapped is killed.....................................

venky takes out all the money and before he can escape the whole gang comes up and they get baten up by venky....................

the family now ditch chennai and move to hyderabad, and they are now a happy family...............................

one day when venky returns home he finds that his house is ransacked and kalyani and nanda are kidnapped , he gets a call from the gang to get all their money he took to a lane near charminar.........................

early morning next day........sarath approaches the place and is escorted by the same taxi driver into the gang's hideout .


now the gang is quite a big one and is headed by none other than jo herself and milind is dead , and she survives somehow..................

seeing jo play the villian is new and she has carried it out to perfection , the briskness of doing chandramukhi is seen............

she has the perfect gangser look and the dialogues are mean..............................

a violent fight takes place between the gang sarath kumar the whole sequence is superb.......................and jo is shot in the end and sarath kumar returns the gangs money back and warns them not to interfere with him anymore.......................................

that was the story.....................

the fight sequences by stun shiva are too cool giving sarath his typical style .......................................

the music harris jeyaraj is fantastic........................

in one song, jo shakes her booty big time , maybe she's enjoying it being the pre-final film for her...........................

the cinmatography is slick and the and a hollywood feeing is there.........

the dialogues are just like the ones seen in kaakha kaakha , but in a lesser quantity , gautam reduced the quantity of foul words and even abuses in english are used , which adds flavor to the roles of milind and sarath , even jo has a go at them................................................................

overall , this film would also run, but not to the extent of "VV" or "KK"

but, PKMC is surely a boost for sarath kumar's career and nice icing for jo's career end.................................

this film is nowhere when compared to derailed , the so called english version of the film..........it's just the same book , both films are based on......................

the film carries an "A" rating , appropriate only for the audience aboce 18 years of age.........................................................like it's going to matter eh ???????
