Boss Yengira Baaskaran

Cast: Arya, Santhanam, Nayanthara, Saravanan and many
Director: Rajesh
Music: Yuvan Shankar Raja
Genre: Comedy





In his second film very much similar to the first SMS (Siva Manasula Sakthi) Rajaesh had experimented with a very different crew and had succeeded in entertaining (and tickling) the viewers. Arya after his serious role in Madrasapattinam had relaxed in Boss as Boss.

Baskaran's brother Saravanan (Subbu Panchu) is a veterinary doctor and the one who runs the family since his father had died. Baskaran, a city cruiser, not even finished his degree arrears with no work to do (added qualification for Tamil comedy entertainer) meets Chandrika (Nayanthara) in one of his arrear attempts. Boss's friend Nallathambi (Santhanam) owns a Saloon which is the hang out for our hero. 

Boss falls in love with Chandrika, who also happens to be his brother's sister in law. Boss and Nallathambi join hands to make Boss a well earner for the sake of marrying Chandrika. This plight of the two builds up the story.


The first few meetings of Arya and Nayanthara are too coincidental to be believable, but the dialogs and the comical back ups manage to erase the flaws.

The location selection is awesome, temples and ponds filled Kumbakonam is where the film progresses. Santhanam's slapsticks are sure clap gainers. Santhanam this time, had managed to reduce his vulgar and hurting (what-many-calls) comedy. 


Tamil film culture of having hero's friend getting into trouble all the time with hero escaping is re-written. The guest appearance of Jeeva, and Shakila could be avoided, but as our hero says "idhalam jagajam".


With maximum possible importance to people other than the hero, wonderful comedy sequences and justice to heroine's salary this film is a guaranteed family entertainer.


A lot of worthy movies had vanished into commercial cloud hope this one escapes the Endhiran mania.
