Vishal's Naan Sigapu Manithan is a Revenge thriller film with a medical disorder tale in the plot. It can be compared to Gajini though this will not make a huge impact like Gajini because of some commercial elements here and there in the plot. Vishal has justified the role of a Narcolepsy patient and portrays the problem they face with the social world. Saranya Ponvannan as usual plays the caring mother character yet it's not boring what she does, make us laugh. Lakshmi Menon for a change as the modern rich man's city girl impresses us with her new looks and acting (credits to the makeup man for using enough touch up coats and colour contacts). She had a good scope in the first half of the movie and in the second half she goes as the sleeping beauty. Iniya the vaagai soodava girl has played the similar role of Thirutu payale Malavika which perfectly fits with her new transformed stunning looks. Her role is short but important and impressive. Supporting roles by Jagan and Mayakam Enna fame Sudar Ramu gives a good hand to the plot. Jayaprakash comes in a short role. The screenplay was good and quite engaging except for the fact of misplacement of songs. Story is also fresh keeping in mind that without digging much into the real medical syndrome if see this as something newly presented it feels fresh. BGM so much was mostly stolen from myakam enna and Gajini. Music was average not impressive by GV. The controversial lip-lock was not so laudable but of course the plot had adultery in so many sections justifying U/A certification. Second half twist might offend so many people particularly female viewers. Overall 3/5. -Reviewed by Sivakumar Balachandran
