Theal narrates the story of Durai, a man who works as a collection agent for a loan shark in Koyambedu. Durai is a violent man who will not even think twice before breaking a leg of a person, but his life changes when his mother comes back into his scheme of things, after 30 years since she abandoned him.
The film is based on the Korean drama Pieta, and takes its skeleton from there. But the narrative by Harikumar is packed with emotional moments, gut-wrenching scenes and some commercial elements which act as breathers. Harikumar has a very basic approach to the making structure of the film, and moves on with the narrative by giving us a very shabby look at Durai’s life, and how it slowly gains color and shape. The film’s final run is swift, and it takes place with lots of twists and surprises, ending with a high.
