Amongst the technicians, V.T.Vijayan's editing responsibilities need to be highlighted, as he makes sure that the film doesn't sag too much. Rakki Rajesh's stunt work is almost impeccable here and Gopinath's crisp cinematography captures these scenes very realistically. No wonder Dharani is considered such hot property in Kodambakkam today. Director Dharani, whose previous outings include 'Dhill' and 'Dhool,' both Vikram starrers, has grasped the details of the Telugu original story and screenplay of 'Okkadu' and fashioned a Tamil remake that showcases Vijay's talents and builds his 'star' image even further.

But 'Ghilli' is purely a visual treat from start to finish, what with car/van chases, running, swimming, jumping, pulling, pushing and just about any other '-ings' you can do in the name of stunt sequences. What brings Vijay (Saravana Velu, aka Ghilli), a kabbadi pro, and Trisha (Dhanalakshmi), a hapless lass caught between her downtrodden family and a vile, tempestuous and absolutely obsessed Prakashraj (Muthupandi) together forms the crux of the story.

You better believe it, if you are a Masala film or Vijay fan, you will lap this up in a jiffy. but the screenplay and overall treatment is as fresh and appetizing as full meals after a long day. Gilli, story wise, is neither fresh popcorn nor spicy samosa found in theaters.
