The trailer and stills of David made it clear to us that the movie was about two characters in different time eras and different places, but with the same name. Goa, 2010 and Mumbai, 1999 are the scenes of action with Vikram and Jiiva being the protagonists respectively.
While love is the bone of contention in Vikram’s story about a freewheeling Goan for whom drinking is a way of life, Jiiva, an aspiring guitarist has a bigger mission on hand as he has to get even with the politicians who had excoriated his father’s name.
The director, Bejoy Nambiar, frequently switches between these two stories in a non-linear narrative, trying his best to make both meet convincingly on a common ground. As the handsome Goan hunk always in an inebriated state, Vikram is terrific. He makes it look so easy. Jiiva on the other hand is spunky as the emotional youngster. His styling is trendy and he looks the part as the Mumbai youngster. The actor continues to live up to his reputation as one of the best talents in Tamil.
Among the other actors, Tabu and Lara Dutta have similar roles, that of a moral support to the two male leads. Both these former hotshots have aged and matured.
