Story-;
Athira, a 25-year-old cop gets to investigate her best friend’s missing case. The case turns out to be very mys ter ious when she suspects that her accident has been staged and that she has been murdered. After digging deep into the case, she gets to know shocking revelations about her and now she has to make some life-changing decisions. Thittam Irandu aka ‘Plan B’ sounds like a title well-suited for a heist film. Director Vignesh Karthik’s latest film does involve a heist, but there are enough twists and turns to blindside you. If you have watched the film’s trailer and have a set idea in your mind, let us assure you that Thittam Irandu will lay waste every single assumption of yours.
The film opens with a scene, which is a staple in movies involving a psychopathic serial killer. It is late at night and it’s raining. The killer arrives on a black scooter, wearing an all-black ensemble and completing his ‘murder wear’ with a black helmet. He’s limping, and gives an impression of a handicap. But, he is capable of scaling the front gate of the house, where his poor, unsuspecting victim is fast asleep. So we think. The setup is a cliche, and we have seen it multiple times already in assorted films. And that’s what Vignesh wants. He wants the audience to go into the film with a preconceived notion about what’s about to unspool. In that state of mind, the audience would relax and let their guard down, which sets them up for a slew of surprises that Vignesh has up his sleeve.
Vignesh has this clever idea to exploit the trappings of the whodunit genre to his advantage and subvert the expectations of the audience. But somewhere between conceiving a clever idea and fleshing it out, the director loses his own vision. He seems so obsessed with the final payoff, he forgets to construct a compelling course of events that makes the final reveal as ground shaking as he imagined it to be. Even the core conspiracy in the movie is not as puzzling as he wants it to be. It is because neither his screenplay nor characters inspire us to care for what’s happening in the story.

Movie Review-;
Director Vignesh Karthick’s Thittam Irandu begins on a realistic note. Athira (Aishwarya Rajesh) gets into a private sleeper bus only to find that she has to share the pod with an unknown man, who is later introduced as Arjun (Subhash Selvam). But, love blossoms between Athira and Arjun after multiple meet-ups. While Athira is a cop, Arjun is an aspiring actor. Aishwarya plays Inspector Aathira, a young woman moving to Chennai to take charge at her new posting. She meets Arjun (Subash Selvam), a fellow passenger on the bus to Chennai. Though she’s a senior police officer, Aathira feels unsafe about sharing the co-sleeping space with a man, and he offers to move to a seat next to the driver. Needless to say, a romance blooms between the two of them. Aishwarya, who shot to fame when she played a young mother in Kaaka Muttai, has never shied away from taking up bold roles.
Athira, a high-ranking cop, played by Aishwarya Rajesh, becomes obsessed with a missing case. The woman, who has gone missing, is her childhood friend Surya. Aishwarya, however, hardly makes an effort to make us feel the pain of her character’s loss or the burden of her obsession. She looks and behaves so casually, making it hard for us to buy what the film is selling. Not to mention the romantic exchanges between Athira and Arjun, which are so cheesy. You see glimpses of Gautham Menon in Athira’s voice-over dialogues and her initial conversations with Arjun. And then we see a bit of Mysskin in the mix, particularly in the scene where Athira bumps into the killer and begins to chase him.
Working one’s inspirations into his work is not wrong. It is how many of the great filmmakers have been making good movies since the inception of cinema. But, it has to be done with an aesthetic sense combined with some original thinking. 10 minutes into the story, we are introduced to the conflict. Athira’s childhood friend Surya (Ananya Ramprasad) is missing. Few days into the investigation, Athira and her team find a charred dead body in a burnt car. Forensic declares that it is Surya’s dead body. Athira refuses to believe the reports and starts her quest to find out who the killer is. The investigation reveals multiple subplots and twists.

Meanwhile, Aathira’s childhood bestie Deepa Surya (Ananya Ramaprasad) is found dead in a car accident. But Aathira smells a rat and decides that it was a staged murder. All is well so far. Aishwarya looks great as a police officer (the make-up could have been more subtle though, is it really necessary to cake her naturally charming face so much?), exuding confidence and control, even as she blushes whenever she runs into Arjun. The investigation and their love life travel in parallel. Broadly speaking, a thriller needs a captivating narrative to leave an impact. Papanasam, a remake of Mohanlal’s Drishyam, is a case in point. While the film did not really feature a revolutionary plot, it managed to keep fans hooked as the narrative…
