![]() ![]() ![]() Movies like this revive the utterly lame trends of guy-stalking-girl to get her attention and the protagonist going lengths to pay the hefty dowry demands made by his sister's to-be in laws. Together, their scenes are a bore (and not the laugh riots they're supposed to be). Soori plays Annadurai, the childhood bestie of Thambidurai. 'Kathanayagan' which translates to lead hero, is about a coward Thambidurai who at a given situation has to both, get his sister married as well as create a positive impression in front of his girlfriend Kanmani's dad (who's seen him run away from his manly duties earlier). There's barely any freshness in the storyline, which basically is an excuse to hop from one running-gag to another (even the supposed humor is of subpar quality). The movie, for good part, fits into the seen-it- all- before category. It's a bunch of comedy skits knit together clumsily. Films like 'Kathanayagan' (directed by Muruganandham and starring Vishnu Vishal as Thambidurai & Catherine Tresa as Kanmani) are bound to jog our memories of that terrible phase in Tamil cinema where majority of the scenes looked like mere filler.
