Biriyani Review

Cast: Karthi, Premgi Amaren, Hansika, Nasser, Ramki, Mandy Thakkar, Sampath, PremDirection: Venkat PrabhuDuration: 2 hours 29 minutes
Synopsis: Sugan, a compulsive flirt, and his friend Parasu, go after Maya, a sexy woman they encounter at a biriyani eatery, in the hopes of a promiscuous night. They get drunk and pass out, and when they wake up, they find the cops on their heels, blaming them for the disappearance of business magnate Varadarajan.
Review: Venkat Prabhu definitely knows how to have a cake and eat it too. Fun is certainly the core of all his movies — not only the fun he has while making a film but the fun the audiences have while watching them — even when the genres are varied, be it a sports movie (Chennai 600028) or a thriller (Saroja), or even a noir (Mankatha). That is the case with Biriyani as well. It is essentially a murder mystery but Venkat seasons it with his brand of wink wink nudge nudge filmmaking, and turns it into an engaging entertainer.
The plot revolves around Sugan (Karthi), a compulsive flirt, and his friend Parasu (Premgi), who is always unfortunate when it comes to women (Sugan is mostly to blame). Sugan has an on-off relationship with his girlfriend Priyanka (Hansika), a TV personality, and he makes an impression on business tycoon Varadarajan (Nasser), who is being investigated by CBI officer Riyaz Ahmed (Sampath) for a quarry scam. Meanwhile, the duo encounters the sultry Maya (Mandy Thakkar), who invites them to her hotel.
