There was a time when director Suseenthiran made small-budget films in a very smart way. But his first big-budget masala movie Rajapattai, fails to impress.
In his earlier movies namely - Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu, Naan Mahan Alla and Azhagarsamiyin Kudhirai, strong story and powerful screenplay helped the movies sail through. But these vital factors seemed to be missing in Rajapattai.
With a big star like Vikram playing the lead, it was expected that Suseenthiran would come out with a convincing 'commercial' script, but that sadly didn't happen.
During the course of the story Murugan meets Dakshinamoorthy (Viswanath) - a senior citizen, who runs an orphanage. The elderly man is threatened by a set of evil people, who want him to vacate the property.
