ETimes review of ‘Hi’
‘Hi’ features Nayanthara, Kavin, Prabhu, Radhika Sarathkumar and late actor K. Bhagyaraj in important roles. Jen Martin has composed the music for the movie.ETimes praised Kavin’s performance and noted the contribution of the supporting cast. The review read, “Kavin keeps it light and quick. A lot of the comedy works because he is there, even when someone else gets the line. His expressions and voice modulations are on point, and there is quite a bit of variety in this film. Nayanthara lends star presence to a role that demands not too much. Radhika Sarathkumar thankfully doesn’t have television-mother excess. Bhagyaraj, in a posthumous release, reminds you how much he could do with a dry line and a raised chin. Jen Martin’s music is functional.”DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers and the data in this article are compiled from public and industry sources.
