Rajkiran is back with 'Sevvel' after a long gap. The main subject of the movie centres on the bonding between father and son. Though the script has quite a few flaws, debutant director-script writer Primose (he is also the cameraman and producer) should be appreciated for making an effort to be different from the routine stuff. The slow narration mars the pace of the film. Primose's camera has captured exotic locales of Sri Lanka.

Story:
Sudalai (Raj Kiran) is a village head who commands great respect among villagers. He leads a peaceful life with his wife Sevandhi (Seetha). Due to some turn of events, Sudalai is publicly humiliated by the cops. Unable to tolerate the insult meted out, he leaves the village and shifts to the city with his pregnant wife, and manages to join a female State Minister as her car driver. The minister gets killed in a tussle that takes place between her and lawyer Parasuram (Kalabhavan Mani), the blame falls on Sudalai who is present at the scene. Sudalai gets arrested and imprisoned. On hearing the news, his wife dies of shock, leaving their little son (Sevvel) an orphan. A noble heart takes care of the little child and years roll by. Sevvel, now named Raja is a law student. His search for his father continues. Sudalai settles down in Chennai and ekes-out a livelihood by running an old paper shop. Raja works in Sudalai's paper shop without knowing that he is his father. He graduates from Law College in flying colours and sets out to restore his father's lost reputation. He joins as Parasuram's junior to expose him. The rest is all emotional drama that ends up in the father- son reunion.

Performance:
Raj Kiran is at his best in Sevvel. He does overact in a couple of scenes though. Jai Akash as the son has done a fairly neat job. Debutant heroine Misha hardly has anything to do except dance around. Kalabhavan Mani is passable as villain.

Music:
Music by Aasan is average.
Verdict:
Below Average.
