Naan Rajavaaga Pogiren has an uninspiring storyline, dialogues and average performances says S Saraswathi
Naan Rajavaaga Pogiren marks the directorial debut of Prithviraj Kumar in which national award winning director Vetrimaaran has written dialogues and is also believed to have directed one particular shot for the movie.
What’s more interesting is that, he, along with Music Director GV Prakash, and cinematographer R Velraj, has made a special appearance in the film. All three appear as judges at a college cultural event featuring the lead actors.
The film is produced and distributed by Udhayam VLS Cine Media, and has been cleared by the censors with a clean ‘U’ certificate. Nakul, Chandni and debutante Avani Modi play the lead roles along with a support cast of Manivannan, Delhi Ganesh and Mayilsamy. The film also has an item song featuring Zarine Khan of Housefull 2 fame.
The film opens in picturesque Himachal Pradesh among the lush apple farms, where both Jiva (Nakul) and his mother (Seetha) work for a living. By a chance meeting with an army officer stationed there, who mistakes him for his friend, Jiva learns that he resembles his college mate Raja (also Nakul) in Chennai.
We are then taken in a flashback to Chennai, where Raja, Rema (Avani Modi) and Wahab are college mates. After some fun and laughter, the film gets intense. Rema falls in love with Raja, but just when she is about to declare her love, Valli (Chandni) enters the scene. Raja falls in love with Valli, a social activist and law student, who believes in fighting for a just cause.
She is part of a team of activist under Kamrajar (Manivannan),
