But Aravind has followed the group, says he never wants to see Tamizh again for betraying him, and storms off. Feeling guilty, he decides he will tell them both the truth once he goes back to Chennai. For their first anniversary, Tamizh, Hema, Kumaran, and Hema's friend Revathi go to Darjeeling without telling Aravind and Tamizh's father Vijayraghavan. Tamizh starts to woo her and the two eventually fall in love, while Kumaran and Tamizh's neighbour Revathi also fall in love. Tamizh and Kumaran leave out Aravind, as they feel due to his better looks, he might hinder their attempts at the girls.
There he meets Hema, who is an Anglo-Indian and architect student and likes her. One day, Tamizh's mother tells him to go to the temple for a pooja (blessing ceremony). He comes home for the night after he gets drunk, and flashback starts.ĥ years earlier, college student Tamizh, Kumaran, and Tamizh's cousin Aravind were inseparable friends. Desperate, Tamizh gets a job at a roadside biriyani shop. All the companies are pleased with his resume but are hesitant to give him a job due to occurrences in his past job. Tamizh leaves them with his friend Kumaran while he looks for a job. It merely floats with Anirudh’s music.Tamizh, his wife Yamuna, and mother move into an uncomfortable home. ‘Thanga Magan’ refuses to be an entertainer. I agree that it’s a mass dialogue for crowds that visit the theatres to see their Star win against all odds but it sticks out like a piece of chicken in a bowl of broccoli. Actually what he says there makes no sense whatsoever within the cinematic boundary ‘Thanga Magan’ draws. That dialogue about Tamil not losing to other languages in Tamil Nadu (which appears in the trailer as well) brings fewer whistles compared to Dhanush’s romantic escapades with Amy. While the villain is on the verge of a nervous breakdown as his speech about how he’s born to win is demolished by Tamizh’s handwork, Dhanush, the star, is awarded with a punch line.
It’s okay if Sathish can’t come up with gags when the film is taking a dramatic turn the way it happens in many Tamil television serials, still it’s not okay to watch uninspired action scenes featuring Dhanush. Similarly, humor makes way for action in the second episode. He neither has dialogues nor has his shadow in the film anymore. Midway through the film, Sathish loses importance. Sathish tags along with Dhanush throughout the first episode. Writer – director Velraj has shifted his focus from mother sentiment to father sentiment in a year and gives Samantha and Amy some delectable scenes even though all that Samantha does is support her screen husband who is the only lead. Slowly, Dhanush reveals a part of the story via flashback. The movie in fact opens with the death of the father (K. Velraj killed the mother’s character in ‘Velai Illa Pattadhaari’, and in ‘Thanga Magan’, he kills the father’s character. She is so good-natured I’d say she’s marshmallow in human form. She falls for simple lines at first and later walks away due to flimsy arguments.
His instant attraction toward Amy works in his favor after he delivers a couple of harmless jokes regarding her beauty. Tamizh’s (Dhanush) life is divided between the time zones of first love and first marriage. Dhanush is a real “thanga magan” in ‘Thanga Magan’ but if the two hour movie were released episodically (one hour each), the audiences would have been happy with just the first episode because the second episode here becomes a mini-struggle to sit through.
