Think Goa, you are immediately reminded of fun, frolic, women and wine. Venkat Prabhu’s ‘Goa’ is no different as the movie dwells on all these things. With more of a Bollywood feel, the movie is ‘funathon’, that is light and breezy all through without any seriousness involved in it.

Venkat Prabhu has managed to keep his reputation intact. Quite like ‘Chennai 28′ and ‘Saroja’, he doesn’t take himself very serious in ‘Goa’ too. All is well but for few hiccups. The movie sets out to explore the changing relationships among the youths including being ‘gay’. But that’s takes very very little of the screen space.

The movie revolves around three youths who sets out on a trip to Goa only with a mission to fall in love with a white woman, get married and go abroad. The twists and turns they come across in their mission makes up the story.

A spoof of few popular Tamil films and songs does add to the merriment. With Premji, Jai and Vaibhav around, one is ensured of fun and frolic. There are some surprises in the form of Sampath Raj, Sneha, Silambarasan and Prasanna.

Yuvanshankar Raja is the real scene-stealer. A total of 9 songs including Goa theme are peppy and interesting to listen to. Sakthi Saravanan’s camera is equally appealing capturing the sands and sea-shores with clarity.

Goa is Soundarya Rajinikanth’s maiden production venture on behalf of Ocher Picture Productions. Once can applaud her commitment in taking the risk to deviate from the regular run-of-the-mill stuff and try something different.

However on the flip side, the movie might throw some shock to a section of conservative film audience. Also the second half wanders aimlessly and needs an immediate trimming.

At the same time, one has to say that Venkat Prabhu was clear on what he wanted to do on screen and has rightly delivered the same. If you want to unwind yourself, forget all logics and enjoy, then the destination ‘Goa’
