Kanchana 3- Extremely stereotyped horror- comedy that works infrequently
Four times after the third investiture in the Muni series, Kanchana 2 released, Raghava Lawrence is back with the fourth movie in the series- Kanchana 3/ Muni 4. With the caravan and promos giving a sense of deja vu, let's see what surprise Kanchana 3 has in store.
The ghost stewing Raghava( Lawrence) and his happy family comprising his mama ( Kovai Sarala), family( Sreeman), family in law( Deva Darshini) and their son set out to Coimbatore for a family function, and there, the whole family including Raghava's relatives( Vedhika, Oviya, Nikki Tamboli) substantiation strange, scary incidents, and Raghava getting held.
The posterior events lead to the disclosure of another character Kaali( Lawrence again) and how an wrong minister Sankar( Tarun Arora) and his family Bhavani( Kabir Duhan Singh) ruined Kaali and lover Rosy and their Vihara. Now how Raghava helps Kaali achieve his vengeance is what the movie is each about. Raghava Lawrence is back as the ever alarmed Raghava who has a fun time when it comes to seeing his heroines, and as the differing Kaali is filled with mass, and the getup and discourses( though stereotyped) are apt. The three glamorous heroines Oviya, Vedhika and Nikki Tamboli have nothing further to do other than trying to invite Lawrence and all of them indulge in overacting, in the name of being funny. The fun triad Kovai Sarala- Deva Darshini and Sreeman give the ridiculous relief as usual, though it gets way too monotonous and over the top this time. The antagonists Tarun Arora and Kabir Duhan Singh are stereotypical and do not look menacing.
The first half of the movie is a reprise of the Kanchana series occurrences, with the only change being three heroines in place of one, and all of them have no inhibitions in glamour that they bat around their house amidst family members in extremely meager outfits, no families would substantiation. After several unwarranted songs, fallacious sequences and glamour, the movie reaches conflict point in the interval, in usual Kanchana style. The alternate half of the movie establishes the alternate character Kaali, and while the flashback itself is extremely stereotyped, Lawrence makes it tedious with three back to back songs towards the climax. And the movie culminates with a typical Amman appearance, except that this time we have got a whole new exorcists vs Amman plus Aghori quintet, and the climax is a damp spoof. Background score by Thaman is loud, while the songs from Doopaadoo fail to impress. Vetri's illustrations capture the template sequences impeccably while editing by Ruben must have been better, especially with respect to song placements.
Raghava Lawrence is back to what he does best- the horror comedy ballot he'd established with Muni/ Kanchana series, and this around he has chosen to remake Kanchana 2, with the new change being three heroines in place of two( banning the fourth heroine in the flashback), and an extraordinary new conception of Aghori vs Exorcists combined with the godly power of Amman. The movie rigorously follows the Muni template, and indeed as Kovai Sarala and platoon try to elicit laughs with gross lines and body language, Vedhika, Oviya and Nikki Tamboli irk followership in the name of soliciting Lawrence, as none of them could get their expressions right, and their overacting and non sync discourses just add to the straits.
It's egregious that the costume developer of the movie must have had an easy job, as the heroines, apparently a part of a family following traditions, sashay around in bare minimum attires. While generally the pictures of the ballot will have further occurrences of Raghava character giving fun moments, this time the character is fully letdown and Kaali character, though stereotyped, takes priority. With every investiture of the series, the villains have been getting less important and this time, despite two villains, they look like loud caricatures than menacing. Despite pungency and monotonous occurrences, Raghava Lawrence has aced the art of attracting B and C followership with his packaging of glamour and horror with comedy flavour, and Kanchana 3 will find patronage from B and C as well, and end profitable. Replete with shibboleths and loudness, as Kanchana 3 arrives to an end with the preface of fantastic Exorcists into the ballot, you are being thrown the scariest part of the movie- Kanchana 4/ Muni 5, coming soon, and that is when you will scream loud in fear, in the whole runtime!
