    Like Salman Khan in Dabangg, Simbu carries the movie on his shoulders and delivers his best.

    Adding to Simbu's performance is Gopinath's colourful cinematography and S Thaman's foot-tapping music.

    Sonu Sood is also good in the Tamil version. He was applauded in Dabangg too.

    On the whole, Osthi is a commercial entertainer which is worth the money you spend in watching the film.
