by Rinku Gupta MPME as this film is referred to in short, is centred around the events of a chain -snatching bid gone awry. Sentiment, drama and action in a package is what director R Rahesh had tried to give us, quite successfully. When the lead actor Dhruv, is shown snatching chains for a living after winning the attention of and entry  into  a dangerous gang of chain snatchers, there is ample amount of curiosity generated.  And the film keeps up the pace, capitalising on the director's good research on how such gangs operate, who is behind  them and how the public become inadvertant victims. To say more would give way to spoilers. This part of the film moves fast with some risky stunts performed well by Dhruva and the cast of villains. The director seems to have done his homework and his effort shows. Aishwarya Dutta is shown  as  a spunky girl training to be a cop and the girl Dhruv falls for. But there is a another girl ( Anjana Prem in a goo...
