Velan isn't a groundbreaking picture in
tamil cinema, but it's also not a difficult film to watch. Velan, directed by debutant Kavin, is a typical rural family
movie about a doting
father and his happy-go-lucky son, with a humorous subplot concerning the latter's
love interest! Velan (Mugen Rao) is the jovial son of a wealthy and powerful manufacturer (Prabhu). While Velan's
father believes his kid is a gifted student, the results of the public examinations astound him. Our protagonist fails the exam, and his
father quits speaking to him.
Velan now studies diligently and receives a passing grade, but he is unable to persuade his father. Velan's
father, on the other hand, agrees to the
marriage after learning of his son's
love interest from the girl's
father (Thambi Ramiah). But there's a catch: Velan's girlfriend isn't the daughter of Thambi Ramaiah! The plot revolves around Velan's attempts to sort out his misunderstanding and reclaim both his
father and his lady love...
Mugen has a youthful appearance, strong
comedy timing, and a knack for
love moments. But he needs to work on the scenes that are emotionally taxing! Prabhu, the veteran, is outstanding, while
thambi ramaiah is adequate. Hareesh Peradi, the villain, is a classic villain who, in the conclusion, causes inadvertent laughter. Soori, who appears in the second half, is a hilarious character who plays an important role. The
comedy and emotions work in this standard country entertainer with a predictable plot.
Gopi Sundar's songs are technically sound, and the scenery are impressive for a country film. Kavin's dialogues are also beneficial to the film. Velan is, in conclusion, a typical rural family action entertainment.
