Vettai Movie Review

By Siddhartha
In what promises to be an action packed thriller, this "Vettai" (Hunt) delivers very little in reality. The story line is nothing but old wine in a new bottle stuff, whilst its screenplay isn't that great which further dampens the spirit. Lingusamy though has done something different in this film by virtue of the scene composition in which Arya and Sameera Reddy lock horns which gives a feeling that these two are the budding lovers in the storyline which later turns out to be not.

The movie begins when the brothers Thirumoorthy (Madhavan) and Gurumoorthy (Arya) are young kids who grow sans their mothers under the supervision of their father. Like all films, the young kids grow up within the wink of an eye and continue in the same vein they were during their younger days.

Thirumoorthy due to family circumstances takes up the job of a Sub Inspector while Gurumoorthy just whiles away his time doing nothing. Vasanthi (Sameera Reddy) and Jayanthi (Amala Paul) on the other hand are sisters who eventually end up marrying the brothers accordingly.

Thirumoorthy comes across the bad guys in Annachi (Ashutosh Rana) and Mari (Gaurav) and they both at logger heads with each other join hands to crush Thirumoorthy's police actions on them.

Does the brothers end up being the saviors and what are the hindrances that come their way is told in the remaining part of "Vettai". The movie has a running time of 165 minutes and to be honest it is Arya who hogs the limelight along with Amala Paul. A perfect example to this fact is that Madhavan and Sameera Reddy together do not have a single duet together while Arya and Amala Paul have two.

Nasser plays a guest appearance while Thami Ramaiah does what he knows to do best and that is playing a supporting role. Music by Yuvan Shankar Raja is a disappointment sans few clusters. Screenplay is bit slow and easily predictable which could have been avoided by Lingusamy.

In terms of the acting of the lead actors, Madhavan has done a decent job while Arya has given a commercial performance. Sameera Reddy and Amala Paul have limited scope to play in a hero centric subject but even in the limited screen time they come, they make sure that the front benchers get their money's worth.

"Vettai" has nothing significant to mention.

Helping an Employee Who’s Struggling with Postpartum Depression

By
Going back to work is tough for any new parent, but the transition is especially difficult for those suffering from postpartum depression. (Remember, postpartum depression affects both women and men.) If you manage someone who has recently had a baby, pay close attention to how they’re doing — a parent’s struggle doesn’t always show on the outside. Some people may overcompensate by working too hard, while others may show a loss of enthusiasm. Familiarize yourself with the services your firm offers — which may include groups for working parents, health care coverage for counseling, or post-natal yoga or meditation classes — so that you can help your employee access support. Offer options such as flex time, telecommuting, gradual return, or peer mentoring. In fact, it’s a good idea to offer these things to all team members so that the new parent doesn’t feel singled out. Find ways to make supporting employees and their mental health part of your culture. Adapted from " What Managers...

If Your Team Is Overwhelmed, What Can They Stop Doing?

By
Project overload is real. But as a leader, it can be hard to tell whether your team needs more resources or just could be working more efficiently. Start by asking people to identify their key activities and how much time they spend on them in a typical week. Use that data to assess workloads and priorities. Consider which tasks the team could stop doing and which might benefit from having their process rethought. Pay special attention to low-value projects that have to get done but that take up an inordinate amount of time. Are there ways to simplify the workflows to reduce the amount of time your team spends in these areas? And last but not least, look for tasks that simply can be done more quickly. If your team is still struggling after these steps, it might be time to hire more people. Adapted from “What to Do If Your Team Is Too Busy to Take On New Work,” by Dutta Satadip
