With much expectation Ajith’s Asal movie got released yesterday. After seeing this movie we would got full satisfaction after a long time we had good Tamil movie with Hollywood effects.
Asal Ajith plays a dual role with one character dealing with international smuggling and the second role as a son. A new brand image will be given to this Boss who always break the box office through his movie collections. Aasal (Original) is directed by old hand Saran.
Ajith’s 49th film, Aasal has several unique facts to its credit.
- Firstly, Ajith has given up his title of the “Ultimate Star”.
- Another interesting fact is that the actor has been credited with the screenplay (along with with Saran and Yugi Sethu) and direction.
- Movie was Picturized largely in France and other exotic locales.
- Prashant D’Misale’s camera zips across the landscape in a breath-taking fashion.
- You can actually feel your ears turning pink with the cold captured through Prabhakar’s sleek art-work.
- Anthony’s editing is smooth while composer Bharadwaj has gone to town with Vairamuthu’s lyrics.
- Yuhi Sethu, who is known as a taut screenplay writer, has ensured that the script has no loose ends and there is no logical lapse.
Story-wise the Billa hangover continues. It’s as though every succeeding director tries to arrange his cast, crew and the script to suit the specifications of the blockbuster.
Though influence of Hollywood movies like Payback could not be avoided especially in the second half, one can forget the fact since Asal is a rich attempt that is bright and beautiful.
My verdict of this Asal movie
Ajith, Saran and Bharadwaj have the struck the right harmony again: This film main success will be shared by everyone. Billa showed ajith with oozing all stylish. Asal has showcases Ajith on roles with style and stuff.

At present he has been making a mark in Hindi. After the success of 13B, he is now busy with Teen Patti with Amitabh Bachchan, Chassini with Jaya Bachchan, 3 Idiots with Aamir Khan and will also be seen in Tanu weds Manu.
