"TOSS" Movie Review


The film Toss with Upendra, Raja, Priyamani and Kaman Jethmalni fails to live up to expectations.
The story is about Neelakanata (Upendra) and his sister Nayani (Priyamani) who lost their parents in childhood. They are the children of a sincere police conistable who serves a honest police officer Shivaji Rao (Vinodhkumar) father of parusuram(Raja) but his colleague Naik (Suman) is jealous because he did not get a police medal. He hatches a plot to defame his friend and fellow police officer.
Parsuram is a self-employed youth with a difference. He does justice to the wrongdoers by charging SET (Self Employment Tax).He comes in contact with Naik who gives him the task of unearthing 10 crore from Neelakanta. The money was actually robbed from a bank by sulthan and Neelakanta snatches it from him.
Parasuram befriends Nayana and Neelakanta. When Neelkanata learns the Parasuram is the one he is looking for since the last 20 years he wants to take revenge. Nayan is also ready to sacrifice her love for the sake of his brother's revenge. But like in all films, the film, after a couple of turns and twists ends on a predictable note - with Parasuram marrying Nayana.

Neelkanata is killed trying to save his sister from a bullet. Parasuram also takes revenge on his father's killer and also exposes Naik.
The comedy is routine. Songs are good but the film has an overdose of violence. Kamana Jethmalanai's role is somewhat unconvincing. Raja, Upendra and Priyamanai are ok. Though some dialogues are good, they don't stand out because the entire film is verbose. Fights are executed in a shabby style. The excessive cg work mars the effect of the viewing pleasure.
