Meipporul, made by NRI Tamils from USA, is a Hollywood -style thriller. Natty Kumar and Krish Bala – both IT professionals - have produced and directed the film, while Natty has written the script. The IT professionals have come out with a neat script that reflects their passion towards the medium.

The story is set in the backdrop of NRI Tamils living in the USA. Devi (Anusha) is a journalist working in a Tamil magazine there while her husband Sam (Krish Bala) is a leading neurosurgeon. Devi happens to know about an abduction of a child and saves the child.  She becomes famous overnight.

While you expect something to happen related to the incident, the story takes a turn and deals with ESP (Extra Sensory Perception). One day Sam meets Gautam Raja (Natty), who happens to have ESP power. Sam, a rationalist, couldn’t help believing Raja’s predictions, as all of them become true. Sam faces his first failure in a surgery, which was predicted by Goutham. Sam is in for a big shock when Gautam predicts Sam’s death and informs him that his wife Devi will be cause for his death. The climax with its unexpected yet convincing set of twists lets you know what happened to the prediction.

Songs by Rahul are hummable but the picturization of them leave much to be desired. Background score by John Meshai is apt.

The heartening thing about the movie is that the narrative never tries to resort to gimmicks and the momentum is maintained through genuine use of suspense element. 

Meipporul: Worth a watch!
