Badhri, the remake of Telugu movie Tammuddu, with Vijay in the
lead released finally. Vijay excels in the role of a no good fellow, black sheep
of the family who finally redeems the family prestige in the boxing ring and
Bhoomika as the innocent girl in love makes a mark as an actress of good
caliber. Monal too as the oomph girl does her job well.
Vijay is weak in studies and a roadside Romeo. His brother Riaz Khan is a kick
boxer on whom his father has pinned lot of hopes. To woo Monal a rich girl,
Vijay poses as a rich guy and she falls for his charms. On the other hand is
Bhoomika the next-door neighbor girl who loves him but Vijay sees her as only a
source to get money and a shoulder to lean on. Vijay's façade is ripped off and
Monal ditches him for a rich guy Bhoopinder who is the kickboxing champion.
Vijay is thrown out of the house. Riaz is bashed up and crippled by Bhopinder in
retaliation for his sidekicks being beaten up. Vijay now undergoes training and
enters the ring to settle scores.The action scenes, the song- dance sequences
and the comedy is done well by Vijay who plays the title role. Music by Rammana
Gokula,cinematography by Jayanan Vincent, comedy by Vivek is blended well by
director Arun Prasad.
