Satham Podathey Tamil Movie
Get set to experience a finesse movie with class apart, if you haven't yet seen Satham Podhadhe. It is a mind-blowing, psycho thriller from the fabulous director SM Vasanth.
The movie takes its credit not just for the story, but also takes the cake for its excellent screenplay, splendid direction, best acting performances and listenable music from Yuvan Shankar Raja.
The movie starts with a fast pace and the suspense only begins in the second half of the movie.

Rathnavel fakes up saying that he has told all the truth to his wife and got married. Now here, the audience is here for a sudden twist in the story. Rathnavel was a hardcore alcoholic, an impotent guy and had even been to jail for killing a 6 year old kid.
Banu is completely unaware of all this. She comes to know about her husband's drawbacks but accepts it thinking that it is not his fault.

The whole suspense can really make you think what is going to happen next. Rest of the movie is suspense thriller that takes to completely unpredictable events, thanks to the fantabulous screenplay!
Nitin Satya has given his best to his role after his success in the movie Chennai 600028. He grabbed the attention of the entire movie and portrays a very strong role. Padmapriya has done a fabulous job and applause should go to her as well. Prithiviraj has supported both the characters very well. The beauty of the movie lies in the suspense, the punch dialogues and definitely excellent direction from Vasanth. Vasanth's movie has always been different with a new story plot and here he does a great job yet another time. In entirety, the film is not worth to be missed! Award winning performance by Nitin Satya and Padmapriya! Must watch!
