Well written & executed, spoiled by bad acting by the Antagonist & bad music

I think there should be a law banning all Producer & financier & their kins from acting in the movie they finance. These idiots more often end up spoil well written scripts This movie is a classic example. The script is well written & is quite engaging throughout with a good acting by the lead pair, well recreated from the malayam movie. However every good movie esp a thriller needs a strong villain to create the impact, here in this case, the producer decided to cast himself in it & spoils the fun. Extremely bad acting by Nikesh ram, he has no body langauge for an pyscho character & start annoying you for the fact that he is single handedly spoiling a great script. To make it worse, they had someone else dub for him, which sounded like the dubbing you in English to tamil dub movies. Another key component for thriller movies is its background score, which is also miserable in this movie. score in most scene do not blend at all with the scene, looks like someone randomly added those tracks to the scenes without even seeing the movie.
