STORY: The movie revolves around the story of two brothers. The elder brother is played by Kaali Venkat (Surya) and Kalai (Karthi) plays the younger sibling. The younger one enjoys playing pranks on his brother, he always manages to make up to him and maintains the ‘bro’ code. This underlying formula of their relationship is put to test in later parts of the movie due to a twist in the marriage arrangements of the elder. Composed in the most comical, yet convincing manner, this primarily makes up the plot. How they come out of the mix up and all becomes well to end well is the journey Raja Mandhiri will take one through.

REVIEW: Raja Mandhiri boasts of a bagful of sensible comedies. Chemistry between Kalai and newcomer Shalin is sensible and most certainly works well. Shalin is candid and capturing, carries her role neatly. Music and cinematography are tidy. The same could be said of Vaishali who plays Kaali’s love interest. Bala Saravanan’s timing comics is entertaining.

The first few minutes of the film are vital for stealing the audience attention, it could have been utilized better.

Cinematography is superb. Songs would have been better to carry on the story. Story and screenplay of the film could have been a little more pressure. Known trend in the second half of the film and then slightly bored.
