Jagame Thandhiram review
The story of Jagame Thandhiram revolves around Peter (James Cosmo) a racist mobster who is involved in a variety of illicit enterprises in London; Sivadoss (Joju George), a Tamil smuggler who leads the UK underground; and Suruli (Dhanush), a Tamil troublemaker from Madurai.
Suruli is a criminal from Madurai (a small town in Tamil Nadu). He is one of those who is more concerned about the blood spots on his shirt than killing a human being. Besides killing people to get work done, he owns a small business (parotta restaurant). One of his friends, Vicky (Sharath Ravi) is accompanied by his super boss from London who witnesses one of the coolest restaurant fights and hires Suruli to work for his boss, who stays in London.
The next day Suruli travels to London to commit a murder in exchange for a large sum of money and the prospect of owning a restaurant. Upon reaching he kills Sivadoss, a gold smuggler with a backstory. Suruli learns that murdering him, who was fighting for a cause, was a mistake. He then confronts Peter and stands up for Sivadoss' cause for the rest of the film. Though the story unfolds with some twists and turns it fails to excite you.
