Story : Ajith is an effeminate. Due to this, his wife insults him on their wedding day. Avenging that, Ajith rapes her and so she becomes pregnant and gives birth to twins. Ajith takes care of one while the other grows up under his mother. While one becomes a spoiled brat, the other becomes a psychopath as a result of the situations he faced in his childhood. He seeks to take revenge of his father. He plans to murder him twice. Now, what happens ?? will he succeed in doing so ?? What happens to the spoiled Ajith ?? forms the story.Performances : Ajith is the whole and sole of this movie. He is just excellent in all the three roles he portrayed. He is perfect when it comes to dancing scenes. It seems, he did a lot of homework to act like an effeminate and all his efforts paid off. This is easily one of his best performances. To put it simply, this is a one man show by Ajith. Heroines and other cast have nothing to do as I said earlier, the whole film has only 3 major actors - Ajith, Ajith and Ajith.Story-Screenplay-Direction : As it is evident, the story is an old- fashioned one. But the screenplay given to this makes difference. Direction is fine.Music : Music by Maestro A.R.Rahman is slightly a mixed bag. The soundtrack is partly superb and partly underwhelming. While Innisai (all three versions), Katril Oru Varthai & Theeyil Vizhundha are excellent compositions, Ilamai, Thottapuram & Kamma Karaiyil are below average songs strictly meant for Ajith fans. In a way, Rahman has failed to deliver a fully good album. But, as I mentioned earlier half of the songs are awesome. The soundtrack is worth listening for those alone. Background Score is again excellent. It elevates the film to a new level.Other Departments : Artwork, Cinematography and editing is fine.Final Piece : This film solely depends on one strength called - Ajith. His fan-base is huge. Acting wise, he is excellent in all the scenes. He just steals the show. If you admire Ajith, you would like this. Otherwise, you may just get irritated. You have to make a choice. I chose the first one and really enjoyed this film.

VARALARU is a great movie, and lot of hard work in that film, P.C.Sriram, work is excellent, and A.R.Rehman, did a wonderful job.All songs are feast....The Director, K.S.Ravikumar, has add his stamp from the first scene itself. A fast-paced narration with some interesting incidents weaved in, which doesn't allow you much time to ponder on the flaws, and which camouflages the inadequacies of the script, makes 'Varalaru' engaging viewing. And the soul of the film is undoubtedly Ajit, who performs his three diverse characters with panache. The actor has put in much effort, demarcating each role with such finesse and understanding that it is a sheer delight watching him on screen. There is Shiva, the ageing business tycoon, bound to his wheelchair, sharing a strong bonding with his son Vishnu. Indulgent, while Vishnu whiles away his time with his cronies taking life easy. But then suddenly Vishnu starts behaving out of character, his drunken bouts and acts causing the father much shame and embarrassment. And when Vishnu professes to remember nothing of what he had done, the father takes him to a psychiatrist.With 'Varalaru' Ajit has bounced back with a vengeance and re-established his credentials as an actor who can deliver if given the right role and projected suitably.Then appears Jeeva, Vishnu's look-alike, and the cause of Vishnu's woes. Jeeva's target is Shiva, and his motive vengeance for the wrong done to his mother decades back. The flashback episodes has Ajit playing a classical dancer, and it is here that the actor scores. With his perfect body language to go with the character of the dancer, and the feminine mannerisms he adopts to go with it,Ajith cuts a fascinating picture. His classical dance number is performed with such finesse that it takes you by sheer surprise.

ajith has come with a refreshing movie and although it has a weak story yet it was entertaining. Looking at three ajith was good. Twin son and a father seems old trick but was given fresh injection by KS Ravikumar. Any movie by KS RAvikumar, one can hope for a very entertaining past time. The movie starts a bid slow at the beginning but once you start to confuse why the son is doing all the crap then it takes off. Enjoyable.Ajith really brings out his act especially on the soft character. An entertainment movie for all except for some rape scenes. Definitely a go for Ajith's fan. Plus look out for the final scene after the director say goodbye. tells you a lot of hidden story.

Varalaru is an good movie - It has the dubious distinction of failing at every imaginable level.Featuring Ajith in a triple role, Varalaru represents a combination of all the worst elements in Tamil movies.A pitiful story, horrible acting by Ajith, mediocre music, crude action scenes and juvenile comic interludes combine to deliver a stinging migraine to unsuspecting viewers.Varalaru is so bad that it can easily be showcased at film schools as an illustration of an egregiously bad movie.Ajith plays the role of a father Shivashankar and his two sons Vishnu and Jeeva. He overacts in all three roles but is particularly bad as the father. Ajith is only slightly better in the character of Jeeva, the vengeful young lad intent on killing his father whom he blames for his mother's madness.Apart from Ajith's acting (or is it non-acting), the other big weakness of Varalaru is its asinine story, which gives new meaning to the term bizarre.The totally unconvincing story dooms the movie from the get-go. It's weird to even conceive of a mother who harbors affection for her daughter's rapist.Then there are Varalaru's dialogs, which never rise above the banal.Asin plays the lady love of Vishnu but does not have much of a role. Which is a pity since the young girl is showing signs of becoming a good actress. Since the story revolves around Ajith's three roles, there is little scope for Asin to demonstrate her talents here.Music genius Rehman has failed to deliver the goods in Varalaru. None of the songs rise above the ordinary. Katril Oru Vaarthai is perhaps the best of the lot.Vishnu, the son of a rich businessman Shiva, generally likes to have a good time in the company of his friends. While visiting a village called Thottapuram on a social service mission, he meets a young girl Divya (Asin) and is smitten with her.Soon, the youngsters are engaged to each other and set to marry shortly.But things start to go terribly wrong for Vishnu soon. He commits various violent acts that he has no recollection of later. When Vishnu's violent behavior gets worse, his father has him admitted to a mental hospital.We quickly realize that the evil hand behind Vishnu's violent activities is actually his look-alike Jeeva.But why is Jeeva doing all those criminal acts and shifting the blame on Vishnu? The answer lies in Shivashankar's distant past as andancer who is jilted literally at the altar. Unable to bear the shock, his mother dies sending Shiva into a violent rage that leads him to rape the girl (Kanika) who jilted him.Although Kanika has a short role, the young lass shows that she can indeed act, a rarity in Tamil movies.All in all, Varalaru is awful to endure, rotten to contemplate and unpleasant to narrate
