Surprise! Surprise! Finally after a long time here comes a Vijaykanth movie that does work, just for the mere reason that it is anything unlike the typical formula fare that Vijaykanth was dishing out. Surely it has traces but things have been kept to the bare minium. The lack of any intolerable comedy track, hard to digest song sequences, and over the top hero praising has eventually made this product a much better one than anything we usually associate Vijaykanth with.
Arivarasu (Vijaykanth) is a senior trainer at the police academy and is having a happy married life.
His normal life goes for a toss with the disappearance of his best friend and brother in law, Manoj (Biju Menon). Also the fact that he is currently investigating the murders of a few top notch scientists working on a path breaking research programme does not help the cause.
The sudden circumstances forces Arivarasu to head to Canada in order to get to the bottom of all this. Here with the help of a Canadian cop Lara (seril Brondo) , he gets more clues and moves closer to crack the group of terrorist baddies (headed by Rahul Dev).
