Kali - This love is Faithfully FURIOUS!

What happens when a hot-headed person is asked to handle front-end customers in an institution like bank? To complicate the situation further, how will it be if an irritating co-worker rankles and infuriates an already enraged personality to his extreme by repeatedly slapping him on his back despite his warning signals? It is sure to lead them on a warpath where the obvious outcome is a thunderous slap and several bad mouthings to the annoying person. Does the person deserve it? That's a question for another blog but what is the net effect that the outburst of this maddening anger has on the personal relations is dealt in a lucid and wonderful manner by the director.

The protagonist , Dulquer Salmaan, has essayed with the ease the character of a person who has anger management issues right from his childhood but who had failed to address it. The result is a cacophony in his personal life with his wife - Sai Pallavi. The chemistry between the lead pair is a treat to watch which doesn't cross the border yet still manages to sizzle on the screen with their cuteness. After Premam, Sai Pallavi hogs the limelight by being an extremely caring and loving wife who wants her husband to change for the better. Unfortunately, Siddharth's penchant for getting into trouble due to his rage was causing enough friction in their marriage life to the point of them getting a divorce. The final nail in the coffin was when Siddharth slaps his annoying co-worker in front of everyone during an office party thereby causing deep humiliation and shame to Anjali despite her continuous advice and suggestions for Siddharth to be calm under stressing situations.

What happens after that is a simple yet interesting story by neatly tying up the very first scene of the movie ,where a person is being kicked out from his shop by a ruthless ruffian, with the second half of the film by entwining with Siddharth's and Anjali's life. 

The entire cast has done a fantastic job in this uncomplicated storyline especially the truck driver, Chakkara with his villainous and devious intentions for Anjali. At the end, when the sailing gets smooth between Siddharth and Anjali, Karma catches up with Chakkara. Siddharth finally realizes the negative effects of his anger and wants to forgive him but it was Anjali's turn to be furious with Chakkara for making her blood boil with his outrageously unrestrained and sickening behavior towards her.

Kail's a must watch just for Dulquer and Sai Pallavi and how anger can cause destruction in a person's life if left unchecked.
