[edit]Reception

The film received positive reviews.Indiagliz stated that /'Vijay, who proved his skills in playing a comedy role in Vasseegara, seems to have reproduced such a good show in Sachien too. His body language and dialogue delivery deserves a special mention. And gave a final verdict "Watching Sachien is a bit like watching the real Sachin but these days ---occasionally good."^[2]Sify wrote the verdict as "Candy floss romance" and said "Finally at the epicenter of it all is the Vijay sans any make-up. He is spontaneous, a great dancer, has perfect comedy timing and does justice to his loosely etched out character of a happy-go-lucky millionaire! If nothing else, watch Sachein for this one man show, he is there in every frame of the film."^[3]

Behindwoods praised vijay as "It is a cakewalk for Vijay and his role has been etched out keeping his fans’ expectations in mind. His comedy track with Vadivelu, who is his collegemate, is quite run-of-mill" and "Vijay looks best in roles, which require him to portray tenderness. He wins the competition thumbs down as the successful romantic hero of this generation of actors".^[4] The Hindu stated `"Sachein' is a movie that fans would watch for Vijay alone" and said "Vijay alone makes the movie extremely watchable".^[5]"Vijay is good in the film. I really liked his character," actor Vikram said during a chat with journalists on Monday.The movie was successful at the box office.^[6]

Plot

Saktivelu (Kamal Haasan) returns home to his father, Periya Thevar’s (Sivaji Ganesan) village in Tamil Nadu, after completing his education in London. Much to his father’s annoyance, he brings his westernized girlfriend (Gautami) with him to meet his family. Saktivelu plans on opening a chain of restaurants in Chennai which saddens Periya Thevar as he wanted his son to help the villagers with his education.

Periya Thevar is a well respected village chief. His younger brother and his nephew Maya Thevar (Nassar) holds a huge grudge against him over a family feud. Since most of the village is divided into these two brothers faction and as Maya Thevar always tries to one up Periya Thevar, it puts them at loggerheads with each other.

Saktivelu spends time in the village with his girlfriend by re-visiting his childhood memories. They come across an old temple which has been closed off on Maya Thevar’s instructions. He insists on entering and his friend and servant Esaki (Vadivelu) breaks open the lock for them to look around. Maya Thevar hears of this and a brutal riot is started among the two village factions. Periya thevar, in order to quell the situation, contemplates on apologising to his opponents. Sakthivelu feels it should be him or Esaki who should apologise. When Saktivelu asks for esaki, he learns that Maya Thevar has amputated Easki’s hand for opening the temple. In order to prevent further escalation of the situation Saktivelu, with permission from his father, enlists the help of his friends in the government and opens the temple for all legally. Slighted by this, Maya Thevar, hires goons to break a dam protecting a part of the village faction that supports Periya Thevar. Although one of the villagers spots one of the goons near the dam, he doesn’t think much of it.

The dam is damaged by explosives used by the goons which results in flooding of half the village. This results in lots of death including infants which deeply saddens Saktivelu. He spots the goon who placed the explosives again in the village and gives chase. After capturing, he hands the goon over to the police but the goon doesn’t give up Maya Thevar's involvement due to fear for his family’s life.

Later in order to go one up on shakthi, Maya Thevar closes a portion of his land to prevent the public from reaching the mainroad easily. Sakthivelu and his father invite them for talks at village Panchayat. In the village panchayat accusations fly from both sides. With no evidence backing up the truth, Maya Thevar accuses Periya Thevar for orchestrating various attacks on his brother's family. Disrespected and broken, Periya Thevar returns to his home and passes away soon. Saktivelu takes over his father’s duties as the head of the village.

As time passes, this incident dies down. The villagers express concern to Saktivelu about going around a piece of land belonging to Maya Thevar’s side of the village everyday to work in their farm which causes a much longer travelling time. Saktivelu reasons with the owner of the land to open it up for all villagers to pass so that their long commute is shortened. Although understanding and willing, the land owner is afraid of Maya Thevar’s backlash especially since he has a daughter (Revathi). Saktivelu assures his fear by arranging marriage between a well-to-do person from his village to the land owners daughter. Everybody involved happily agrees and the land owner opens up the land for everyone.

On the day of the wedding, the groom runs away fearing Maya-Thevar. The landowner and his daughter are distraught over this claiming that it is a huge disrespect for his family and even if someone marries his daughter, they have to live in constant fear. Saktivelu then gets permission from landowner and weds his daughter. At first, although Saktivelu still has feelings for his girlfriend and his new bride is very shy, they overcome their awkwardness and move on. But soon, his girlfriend comes back and learns the truth. Although sadden, she understands the situation and leaves. Saktivelu, too, closes the chapter about his girlfriend and starts his new life with his wife.

Maya-Thevar, again slighted by the opening of the land, plants bomb in the village festival. This results in a lot of death on both sides of the village. Both factions of the village, wanting revenge, go after Maya-Thevar and his family. Saktivelu protects the innocent family including his uncle and helps them get away from the villagers. Appreciative of Saktivelu’s efforts to protect them, they give away Maya-Thevar's hiding location.

Saktivelu goes to meet Maya-Thevar and asks him to surrender to the police before the villagers kill him. Maya-Thevar’s rabid hate for Saktivelu makes his reject his offer for help. Maya-Thevar blaming Saktivelu for all his problems tries to kill Saktivelu. In the struggle that follows, Saktivelu accidentally kills Maya-Thevar. Although other villagers are willing to take the blame for the kill, Saktivelu gives himself up to the police.

Plot


Imsai Arasan 23am Pulikesi is a comical satire on the Machiavellian politics practiced in the late 18th century. The film is laced with references to present-day happenings in politics, sports and other areas.
In a faraway South Indian kingdom of Cholapuram Paalayam the ruler (Nagesh) and queen (Manorama) are longing for a child, as all their 22 children have died at birth. Little do they know that the queen’s brother Rajaguru Sangilimaayan (Nassar) is behind the death of their children, as he wants to be the next ruler. But when the palace astrologer predicts that the 23rd child will be a dimwit, Rajguru is happy. But the queen gives birth to twins; the smarter one (according to the astrologer's instructions) is ordered to be killed while the dimwit survives.
The child is named 23 am Pulikesi (Vadivelu) and he grows up to be the new king after the king's death. Pulikesi is a weak, hedonistic bully with grandiose delusions and is a puppet in the hands of Rajguru, who colludes with the British to loot the state. Meanwhile, the other child is adopted by the palace doctor (Venniradai Moorthy) and his wife, a childless couple and he grows up to be Ugrabuddhan (Vadivelu), an educated young man and a patriot with a lofty vision for his country. Ugrabuddhan tries to kill Pulikesi, but when Ugran sees him he realizes that Pulikesi is his twin brother. Soon Ugrabuddhan comes to know about his past and to save the land from Rajguru and British, he replaces Pulikesi as the king.
