Saguni Tamil Movie Review
Fun under the sun
After almost a year comes Karthi with Saguni, a political thriller laced with fun, humour and joy. But director Shankar Dayal has ensured that it is packed with a strong political message.
As the title suggests, the character is inspired by a legendary character in Indian epic Mahabharatha who played mind games to ensure victory in his battle. It is a Karthi show and he in the company of Santhanam ensures there is fun, laughter all through.
While the first half is more comical and romantic, the latter part proceeds in a quick pace and is truly racy.The movie is about an innocent youth, who takes up a challenge and ensures that he uses all mind games to ensure victory in all his deeds.
The movie boasts of big names like Prakashraj, Nasser, Kotta Srinivasa Rao, Roja, Radhika among others. Music is by G V Prakash, editing by Sreekar Prasad and camera by Muthiah. Read on for Saguni Tamil Movie Review

What he aimed to.He first meets a local money-lender (Radhika), who is also a don and convinces her to file a nomination for the post of Corporate. Through his wit and machinations, Kamal makes her the Mayor.
Later, he transforms a rural godman (played by Nasser) into a powerful Godman. He adds the influential opposition leader Perumal (Kota Srinivasa Rao) to bolster his 'team' but faces unexpected troubles from the chief minister. Is he able to ward off the villain's designs and emerge unscathed is the crux
Performance
Karthi and santhanam are the two eyes of the movie. They bring the roof down with their comical acts. The first half is awesome. Karthi plays his role with style.Karthi is the pivot around whom 'Saguni' revolves and he carries off his role splendidly. Santhanam's one-liners evoke instant laughter.
Pranitha plays Karthi's ladylove. The star cast is loaded with some powerful performers like Prakashraj, Radhika, Nasser, Roja among others. Among others Nasser alone has a meaty role, while the others are wasted.
Analysis
Shankar Dayal's team is technically strong thereby helping him render a quality film. G V Prakashkumar has come up with a mix of peppy and melodious numbers. Manasellam is picking of the album.Muthiah captures the action scenes well.Reminding one of Vikram starrer Dhool, Saguni has its own moments. But Karthi's screen presence makes one forget all cliches and logical lapses.Saguni is a curate's egg in a way.
