There have been many fantasy stories about search in Tamil cinema, including this week’s Agathiya starring Jeeva, Arjun and Raashi Khanna directed by lyricist Pa Vijay. Let’s see.

Storyline
Jeeva is an art director in cinema and his first film is dropped. When his hard-earned set goes in vain, Raashi Khanna gives Jeeva the idea to turn it into a scary house.
So turn it into Scary House and do business, where many paranormal things happen. Meanwhile, Jeeva gets an old reel in which Arjun appears as a Siddha doctor.

Arjun comes as a Siddha doctor in 1940 and cures the sister of a cruel French king and tries to find a cure for bone cancer.
As the story ends, Jeeva’s mother is suffering from this disease and Jeeva wants to know what happened in 1940.

And whether the cancer drug was discovered, if so, to think that we should take it and cure our mother, a ghost came in the way, and then what happened is the rest of the story.
Analysis of the film
After a long year, Jeeva has given a hit through a blog and has once again made a new attempt in Fantasy story. He has done well in his role.

At the same time, Arjun, who comes as a Siddha doctor, has done his usual non-carefree performance. Edward, who comes as a villain, attracts attention, and Radha Ravi has also made everyone enjoy the hateful sneer as a white stooge.
Also, the story of the 1940s and the present is alternating, and one of the reasons for this is the usual haunted bungalow. But what Jeeva knows is a logic loophole as if he had seen the video taken by Arjun, but nothing else can be done.

In the 1940 scenes, references like Bharathidasan, Ambedkar, Rettamalai Srinivasan, Murasoli are enjoyable. At the same time, there are no interesting scenes to make you sit up like the story of Magadheera, even though the story moves from time to time.
Especially if such ghost films are to work comedy scenes, but we do not laugh even if they say that this is their comedy. Technically, the film’s cinematography is superb, the 1940 scenes are very special, Yuvan’s music is not very impressive.
The grandeur of the climax may have been there throughout the film, but it was similar to what we saw in the Marvel film Doctor Strange.

Scenes that I have been used to seeing in many ghost films.
There is confusion whether this is a horror film or a fantasy film.
