IS SANTHANAM JOINING BJP? BISKOTH STAR CLEARS THE AIR

Santhanam commented so while celebrating the release of his latest with his fans.

Behindwoods' criticism of Biskoth reads as follows: After being promoted as a film with Santhanam in triple roles, the expectations were high, but like rain playing spoilsport during Deepavali, the treatment of the concept spoils the movie. For every four jokes attempted, only one manages to land. And out of every four jokes that land, only one makes you laugh your heart out. One such would be the sequence where an accident takes place and the driver's face is buried into the airbag of the car. Motta Rajendran immediately says, "Enna pa inga okkandhu Chola Poori saapadranga?" This timing is what the other jokes miss.

There's nothing wrong about making films under the Santhanam universe. We had A1 last year that was a laughter riot, in the same universe. The difference is that A1 was well aware of its shortcomings and focussed more on the strengths. Here, with Biskoth, the film tries to take itself too seriously at various places, which doesn't give a favourable result to both the movie, and us - the audience.
