We’re pulled into Vasco’s origin story via a dialog between him and a biryani grasp on a bus experience. Vasco is the son of a florist (a honest Ilavarasu), who solely has one dream — for his son to get a authorities job. And Vasco, alternatively, nonetheless keen he’s to rise up and work, spends his idle days consuming away together with his mates (this consists of comic Pugazh starring as a generic sidekick). However right here, we don’t get a hostile dynamic between the hardworking father and a good-for-nothing son. Conversely, his father ever so usually advises him, “Vettiya irukardhu varam / it’s a boon to don’t have anything to do”.
Ponram tries to infuse some freshness into the style by having a massy intro music that tells boomer uncles to take a seat down, and a humorous romantic observe that fortunately steers away from any glorified stalking. Vasco falls for Annapoorani (Anukreethy Vas in her debut), a sweetmaker’s daughter who’s written as a immodest “loosu ponnu” with an edge. However as honest as she is, the actress fails to rise above her limitations, rendering the couple’s amusing backwards and forwards tedious.
