Often, what might have felt good in a smaller dose might not taste that well when taken as a whole. And that is the case with VTV Ganesh. He was mildly amusing (mostly due to his sandpapery voice) in Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa as Simbu's friend; he was grating in Naveena Saraswathi Sabatham, in which he had an extended role. And, now, in this film, in which he plays the lead, he is nothing short of an excruciating presence. He plays Ganesh, a good man who fails to make the right choices. He is en route to Chennai after getting the news that his wife has met with an accident (she has actually tried committing suicide) and as he journeys by car, he narrates the misfortunes of his life to the driver, who might not be what he seems. And, so, we get to see Ganesh getting dismissed from his job
