Karthi's Saguni, billed as a political-satire, sets an
example of an ordinary screenplay born out of a weakest story. What was
expected to be as the edge-of-the-seat entertainer has merely turned
out to be a loosely-made film with no logics whatsoever! The only
silver line of the Tamil film is Santhanam's comedy.
The film
begins with the death of CM played by Chandramohan, a political
conspiracy hatched by Bhupati (Prakash Raj), thereby setting the tone
of the film on a serious note. But it takes the next 40 precious
minutes for the director to get into the main story. In the first half
an hour, Kamala Kannan beats around the bush to tell his past towards
auto driver Apparao Durai alias Rajini (Santhanam), who assume that the
former is rich and driving him through the city is profitable for him.
