Movie Review: Partner

-

 An IT impersonator indulging in fraudulent recycling of stolen goods,  Kalyan's ( Yogi Babu), has a friend Sridhar ( Aadhi Pinisetty) who suddenly comes to Chennai looking for work. He  is in need of 25 lakhs to pay off a debt and rescue his sister from a forced marriage to the loan shark.






In order to make a quick buck, Sridhar lands up in a scientist's home to steal an important chip for a businessman ( John Vijay). But due to a series of events, his friend Kalyan gets injected by a mysterious drug in the scientist's lab. The next morning, to his horror he finds that Kalyan has turned into a girl ( Hansika)! 

What happens next? Does Kalyan get back to his original form? Can Sridhar save his sister on time?

The film is a laugh riot. Yogi Babu rocks as Kalyan, in a role different from his usual ones. Robo Shankar, Thangadurai, Muniskanth and Ravi Mariya add to the fun. 

Aadhi does a good job of his role and his scenes with Yogi Babu brings out their strong bond. Hansika does a splendid job of her role as a boy in a girl's body. Her scenes with Aadhi her well conceived and executed by the duo, as they try to adapt to the strange situation. For Hansika its a meaty role and she gives it her best as a performer, one of the main reasons the movie clicks.

The visuals are good,  music is pleasant and the comic caper moves faster in the second half, with enough laughs to keep family audiences invested.

On the flip side, not all the  jokes work. However, the movie could be seen as a welcome break from films of violence and messaging.

A fun family entertainer, with an interesting storyline, performances and a fast moving screenplay which keeps the laughs coming.

Rating 3/5
