Director Karthik G Krish’s Takkar (Clash/Conflict), which can mean different things in different languages, is a commercial entertainer that hardly entertains.
In the film Mahalakshmi aka Lucky (Divyansha) is a feminist with no faith in love and men and Gunasekhar alias Guna (Siddharth) who works in a firm renting out luxury cars.
Lucky eventually falling in love with Guna and how both these characters influence one another and bring about a change in their belief systems is what Takkar is all about.
The problem with Takkar is that it does not have anything substantial to offer to you as a viewer and everything in it comes across as being either artificial, exaggerated or superfluous.
The action sequences, like in quite a few other commercial films, seem to have forcefully fit into the plot to raise the stature of the hero’s character in the film.
The romantic portions, for the most part, appear to be of a transactional nature. The comedy, which is served to viewers primarily through Yogi Babu’s character, hardly works.
