Story is simple and etched from various other films from the past. Dr Sabarivasan (Vijaykanth) is a noted cardiologist working at the Chennai government hospital. The man is upright, morally correct and is always ready to help the poor and needy. At the same time he is no Gandhian, and uses his brawn on the bad guys and also believes in eye for an eye theory.

Two women- Nandini (Jyothirmayi) and a house surgeon (Malavika) are attracted to him because of his kind nature and a streak of macho in him. Finally he chooses Nandini over the house surgeon as his wife, after a few songs with them.

The bad guys are loud, leering and have no human quality in them. They are Vajravel (Pradeep Rawat) and his long haired brother (Aryan) and a corrupt Minister (Pitamahan Mahadevan). As predictable as the Chennai summer heat, Sabari runs into them as they paint the town red. The angry crusader takes them on, and finally eliminates them in a long drawn out climax. To add to the cacophony of the yelling villains, an absolute loony looking villie (Aishwarya) in the form of Vajravel’s wife makes an entry.

There is plenty of blood and gore, punch lines, flying kicks and songs in exotic foreign locales. But sadly director Suresh has no story to tell and stretches it for nearly three hours. All said and endured, Sabari, tests your patience.

Verdict: Forget it!
