In cinema across the world, when the story revolves around mafia, corruption, police and a common man striving to help the right and be just, we have always seen that it never goes wrong. In Kaithi, we witness the same.

In a gripping story on how the police lay their hands on multi-crore drugs and what ensues henceforth till the audience is left with a cue when the end credits roll that something more will happen, Kaithi is a power packed film which grips you for 2.5 hrs not allowing you to rest. It is an edge of the seat thriller where you cheer and root for the protagonist to be successful in whatever he has set out to accomplish.

#Karthi is powerful in the role as Delhi, a screen name and role that will not be forgotten in the near future. He is rustic, raw, and convinces you easily as a convict who has been released from prison a good four years before he completes his life imprisonment sentence. Who knows why did that happen and if at all that was the reason. You will be left with this question when the true motive of the protagonist is left for the audiences to guess. And we just smelt a second part with that last dialogue.

Karthi is that star who is an actor too and understands what works with the audience. It is very evident with the kind of scripts he selects and ensures that the message reaches the audiences without fail.

The second hero of this movie is the terrific background score which keeps you restless and at the edge of your seat throughout. It is that nail biting tension of what will happen next, which makes this movie even more enjoyable.

Kudos to the director for not succumbing to the usual pressure of committing to song and dance sequences trying to give the hero a role that suits his image. This song-less thriller will do wonders with the sole reason that the thriller genre has actually got one solid candidate in a very long time in the form of KAITHI.

While other departments like action and stunts, cinematography, and art direction are also commendable, I wish the screenplay and writing was a little more crisp and avoided few glaring mistakes which could added more depth to this thriller. Since the audience have already smelt a sequel, I hope these are addressed well enough in the next part.

Be prepared folks... Karthi is going to be back with a sequel and I cannot wait for that.

Go and watch it now, else you would regret later for having missed watching this thriller in a cinematic atmosphere.
