Don Movie Review: Sivakarthikeyan’s film is a formulaic entertainer with a message

Don Movie Synopsis: A youngster who is still figuring out what his passion is gets into an engineering college where he clashes with a disciplinarian faculty.

Sivakarthikeyan belongs to an ordinary family. Strict father Samuthirakani from an early age of Siva. Samuthirakani enrolls Sivakarthikeyan in an engineering college so that his son can study and become an engineer. Sivakarthikeyan, who is not well educated, goes down trying to do something he likes. Whether he succeeds in it or not is the rest of the story of the film.

Today’s engineering studies, colleges, students studying in it, as well as the desires of some parents are shown throughout the film.

1. A student who comes to study engineering for parental desires.
2. The administration thinks that the college will get a good name only if it behaves in a very conditional manner.
3. A father who thinks that his son should not suffer like him.

These are the story of DON.

Sivakarthikeyan knows the mood of today’s fans and is careful in choosing his films and characters. Sivakarthikeyan plays the role of Chakaravarthi who finds his favorite and wants to conquer it. His character is the real life of many young people today. They change their lives to suit their parents desire more than they like and eventually immerse themselves in it. Sivakarthikeyan scores a little higher than his friend and love, who is afraid of his father’s strict behaviour.

Priyanka Arulmohan as Sivakarthikeyan’s girlfriend. There was not much love story in college between the two. But, it is that love that happens at school in flashback story that makes it cute and enjoyable. Priyanka Arulmohan is so suitable as a school student and a college student.

S.J. Surya is the professor who controls the college even though he is not the principal of the college. Sivakarthikeyan’s friends are Balasaravanan, R.J. Vijay and Sivaangi. They are responsible for the vibrancy of the film and have done it right. Samuthirakani has lived as a normal father. The climax has an eye-popping scene for many. Adhira Pandilakshmi, who plays Samuthirakani’s wife, comes to mind in that one scene. Soori is just a character in the film. More attention not given to him.

Songs in Anirudh music are kind of firecrackers. The background music is also noteworthy. The whole story takes place in college. So there is always a crowd in the film. Baskaran has managed everything and done the cinematography.

It has been a long time since we saw a lively college story in Tamil cinema. This film has overcome that shortcoming. Debutant director Cibi Chakaravarthi understands very well what kind of film today’s youth will appreciate if given. The film manages to entertain as well qas inform, with scenes and verses corresponding to them.
