Thoondil, a film shot extravagantly in London, tries to confuse romance, suspense, and drama which makes the entire plot boring.
The plot has some twists and turns. It is basically a melodrama about a couple that is forced to wage a custody battle over the surrogate child.
The plot revolves around Shaam, Sandhya and Divya, and the emotional complications that follow when both women stake a claim over the same child.
Shaam, a handsome young man has everything in life, a loving wife, a good job, a car and all the riches that any man could dream of. He marries Sandhya and the couple begins their life on a happy note. But Sandhya has a problem. She badly wants a child but she is unable to conceive because she cannot produce enough eggs.
She learns this from her gynecologist (played by Revathy) and the chances of her conceiving. To everyone’s surprise and Sandhya’s delight she becomes pregnant and gives birth. Life takes on a new turn for the happy couple as they discover the delights of bringing up a baby. Suddenly everything changes. Divya, a fashion model in London, snatches the child from them. Why did she do it? Why is Shaam so helpless though he knows Divya may have kidnapped the child? Will they ever get their child back forms the rest of the story.
Adhiyaman takes a familiar plot, the love triangle and adds a new element to it. The director builds the suspense carefully in the first half. Then lose the entire momentum later.
The flashback romance between Shaam and Divya is entertaining. Once the movie gets a little heavy, Vivek steps in to bring us some comic relief wooing London girl in his Nattamai Vijaykumar getup! The only solace in this film. Revathy is competent. Kaviyarasu’s camera uses the London locales interesting. Abhishek Ray, making his debut as music composer had tuned in some hummable songs. However the background score is lousy.
