Review on my Favourite Movie "DON"

Review on my Favourite Movie "DON"

INTRODUCTION:
Chakaravarthy (Sivakarthikeyan) is born to a middle-class family where he was always looked down by his father Ganesan (Samuthirakani) as he is an average student. As he grows up, the gap between them increases always keeping them at loggerheads. To find out his talent and potential without having to study, he starts staying in hostel at his engineering college controlled by a strict professor and disciplinary committee head (Bhoominathan).
 
College Don is the movie I needed to see. The first half of the movie itself is Comic Relief of the Movie, laughed all the way through Intermission. Some scenes are straight up absurd. The love story was good. S J Surya gave a great performance as Principle but the highlight of the movie is the father son relationship between Sivakarthikeyan and Samuthrakani.

Samuthrakani's performance is top notch and I understood why is he so hot right now as he's in every other movie I watch. The second half slowly turns into drama and by the time of the climax it takes complete 180 and turns really dark in a good way. This type of Father Son dynamic is not new but this movie is different in my opinion, it is so relatable and at times I was watching myself on the big screen and by the end made to think and appreciate my father a bit more.

The cast makes it work. Sivakarthikeyan is a perfect fit for this role, even selling the school portions, and it is his earnest performance in the climax  that actually lifts it. SJ Suryah is splendid in a role. The minute changes in his expressions add to the comedy in the first half. And Samuthirakani's helps us overlook the last-minute transformation of his character. The rest of the suporting cast Soori, who appears as Chakaravarthi's relative, Bala Saravanan, Vijay and Sivaangi, who play his friends, Aadhira Pandilakshmi as his mother is solid, though the sub-plot involving Raju and Shariq as Chakaravarthi's rivals in college feels forced. One also wishes that the director had found a way to make Angayarkanni's father refreshingly, a genteel cop part of the proceedings in the latter stages, given how he is used for some warm moments early on.

Finally, Cibi Chakravarti’s conviction and Anirudh's vibrant score carry the film over the finishing line and ensure that despite the somewhat formulaic treatment of this material (it is clearly influenced by the films of the early 2000s), the film remains largely entertaining.
 
Conclusion:
From this movie I conclude that no matter how much time it takes you have to go through your passion and your goals. Even though you dont know your passion wait patiently util you find it.You have to work for your passion. You have to know what is your passion and goal and go through it until you get success in that specific work.
