"There was once a baby bird, a very active one. But the baby bird wasn't like the other baby birds of the community. So the parent birds of the other 'normal' baby birds pointed out to the parents of the active baby bird that it needs special attention and cure. Taking their word for it, the parent birds took their baby bird to different schools and doctors, but no one could give a solution the parents wanted to hear. Knowing not what to do with their kid, the parents put the baby bird in a hostel. The baby bird found another sad little baby bird like herself, who shared the same story as her. The two baby birds grew close and one day escaped the hostel. They found another friend outside the hostel, who took them to his wonderful parent birds - mother, a teacher and father, a psychiatrist," narrates Nayana, one of the two main characters in the movie, on the stage welling up like a stream. Child artiste, Vaishnavi, who plays Nayana makes the strongest impact with that dialogue and also makes that sequence strongest point in Pandiraj's Pasanga 2.

Nishesh, who plays Kavin, also scores throughout, but his strongest points being his dance performance in the end and his little hyperactive antics that keep kindling chuckles. Thanks to Nishesh, Vaishnavi and the rest of the kids, the film brims with innocence.

On the rear side, Karthik Kumar, Bindhu Madhavi, Ramdoss and Vidya Pradeep as sloppy parents look apt. As parents, who neither complements nor have the ability to appreciate or even acknowledge the high energy of their children, the four actors have done commendably well.

To acknowledge and support a good script is one thing. But being top stars, agreeing to play supporting roles, requires great sense of regard and appreciation towards art of good cinema. Firstly, kudos to Suriya and Amala Paul. Not only have they brought in their brands into the film, but also high spirits, good intentions and heartfelt performances.

If it is the kids, Suriya and Amala Paul who spread liveliness through performance, it is Arrol Correli, who contributes immensely to the mood through his spirited music. The song Chhota Bheema is a treat to the ear buds and eye balls too. Cinematographer Balasubramaniem's 360 degree shots in the song are exciting and animated. His shot of the kids applauding during the establishment of 'Pasanga 2' title marks height of innovative framing.

Editor Praveen KL must have had the hardest job in hand - to chop off the shots involving those amazing kids that were ruled unnecessary, if there were in fact any. However, his cuts were as usual flawless and smooth, making it very comfortable for the audience to watch.

One must definitely appreciate director Pandiraj's competence in skilfully handling scripts revolving around kids and kids themselves. To make the children understand of their character and extract incredible performances need exemplary conviction and unimaginable level of patience.

On the downside though, Pasanga 2 is predictable, has a few dialogues that sounds merely like reading out facts. But the film is high on emotions, which compensates for the shallow story.

All that being, Pasanga 2 is definitely a feather in Pandiraj's hat and a venture Suriya can be immensely proud of, as co producer.
Verdict: Do a favor to Tamil cinema, watch Pasanga 2, let other superstars try what Suriya has!

( 3.5 / 5.0

After the National award winning 'Pasanga' and 'Marina', director Pandiraj is back with yet another film that takes us into the word of children. This time he has teamed up with actor Suriya as a producer and he has also played a pivotal role in the film. However Suriya has smartly cautioned us to not expect things that we would expect from a usual Suriya film but promised that the film about kids has a lesson for everyone to take home.

Let's look how the film has lived upto this promise.

Naina (Vaishnavi) and Kavin (Nishesh) are extremely active and naughty in school and their parents are forced to keep on changing the schools. Only after meeting Tamil Nadan (Suriya) a child psychiatrist, they learn that their kids have Attention Deficit Hyper Activity Disorder. The rest is how the kids overcome the disorder with the help of Tamil Nadan and his wife Venba (Amala Paul), a teacher who has an altogether different perspective on parenting, education and schooling.

With 'Pasanga 2', Pandiraj proves yet again that he is the master of handling films related to kids. The film definitely lives up to its promise and it gives some much needed lessons to society especially the young parents on how they should look at their kids and how they can positively influence their kid's right from the time of pregnancy.

Pandiraj's unique brilliance strikes right from the first scene where a relatively fat boy participates in a long run competition and he wins a prize despite coming last in the race. The idea of using the titling space for subtly conveying the point that how the kids are influenced by what their moms do during pregnancy is another delight.

After the two lead kids are introduced you cannot do anything but enjoy with laughs and claps. The travails faced by the parents due to the kids are also captured realistically. Thankfully the emotional scenes do not touch the line of melodrama and ever parent can relate to the situation faced by the parents of these two kids. Especially the climax sequence can leave tears in your eyes.

After the introduction of Suriya and Amala Paul, which happens towards the interval, the proceedings lighten up and we get some really sweet moments of parenting, educating the kids and getting educated by them in the second half. The two characters have been used to quell the misunderstanding of parents about kids with such extraordinary abilities. But the reliability aspect takes a little beating in these sequences, as the couple (Suriya and Amala Paul) are shown as the 'Ideal' who run one 'Happy family'.

The film offers umpteen infotainment and the messages are conveyed without being preachy. Apt stress has been made on the importance of the complete dedication and involvement of both the parents and family in various phases of growth of a kid. The scene explaining this using a sapling as a metaphor for a kid shows Pandiraj's brilliance as a writer.

The film has its share of clichés but they are not bothersome. It is also predictable but this is not a film that one would expect twists and turns. The film deals with upper middle class and middle class families and how the messages reach all the sections of the society is something we have to wait and watch. The problems of the disorder and dealing with it could have been allotted a little more time in the script.

The film's lead actors Vaishnavi and Nishesh make a brilliant debut. Everyone will definitely love these kids and also the other kids appearing in the film. Nishesh deserves a special mention for his dancing skills.

Karthik Kumar and Bindhu Madhavi are Vaishnavi's parents in the film. Kartik especially has got so deep into the character as at any moment you don't feel you are watching him perform in a film.

Ramdass (Muneeshkanth) and Vidhya Pradeep are the parents of Nishesh. Ramdass excels well in emotional scenes and offers some good comic moments as a person with kleptomania.

Both Bindhu and Vidhya are apt in the roles of young and educated mothers.

Suriya and Amala Paul have played extended cameo roles. But it would be apt to call theirs as pivotal supporting roles. Suriya is at his best as a child friendly young parent and a level-headed psychiatrist. Amala Paul gets one of the best roles in her career and watching her is a delight.

Arrol Corelli's songs are passable while re-recording passes muster. Balasubramaniem's camerawork is apt and fits the tone of the script and offers us a delightful watching experience.

Verdict: An enjoyable and enlightening ride into the world of kids.

Rating : 3.25/5
