Thiruttu.Payale.2
Director: Susi Ganesan
Cast: Bobby Simha, Prasanna, Amala Paul (lead actors first), plus supporting: Susi Ganesan, Soundararaja, M. S. Bhaskar, Muthuraman
Inspector Selvam (Bobby Simha), a seemingly honest yet corrupt officer whose mandate to tap phone calls turns into a power trip. His world unravels when Prasanna’s character, Balki—a cyber predator—befriends and manipulates Selvam’s wife, Agalya (Amala Paul), setting off a high-stakes game of deceit and digital manipulation.
The emotional tension is anchored by the triangular dynamics: Selvam’s obsessive vigilance, Agalya’s vulnerability, and Balki’s calculated charm. Prasanna’s portrayal earns distinction—not designated as hero or villain but a chilling instigator of chaos—while Simha portrays Selvam’s moral ambivalence with sharp nuance. Amala Paul embodies Agalya’s emotional confusion and resilience with compelling authenticity.
The film cultivates a taut, atmospheric tone, blending suspense with tech-driven anxiety. Chelladurai’s cinematography casts a moody visual atmosphere, and Vidyasagar’s score underscores the tension, though at times critics note its intrusive volume m.behindwoods.comDeccan Chronicle. Susi’s screenplay unleashes a gripping first half, though the second half’s pacing falters and the climax feels overstretched
