Raayan is written and directed by Dhanush. It's his second directing endeavour, and he chose an action-packed story with a brother formula for his second go. dhanush takes his time first establishing the universe and the individuals that live in it. Each of the sisters' and brothers' short backstories offers nothing novel. The story first feels a touch dragging due to the sluggish tempo. The flatness is a problem as well. This sensation is enhanced by the drama and action's subtle quality.
 
Occasionally, though, little adjustments to the dependable material keep everything cohesive. The police and gang aspect finally gives the proceedings the focus and traction they so need. The interval and pre-interval fringe are both excellent. But again, given the potential and breadth available, one thinks that much more might have been done. The actual "action" takes place in the second part. One begins to sense after a while that the narrative is really a means to create the exquisitely filmed action blocks.
 
A crucial plot twist designed to heighten the tension in the second half comes off as incredibly fabricated and detracts from the feelings it was going for. Even when a lot of effort is made to persuade it, it is not convinced. The good news is that despite the problems and slowness, action never stops and we keep getting new action setpieces. There is a lot of gritty action here, but it's not the extravagant kind. the one where the sister is used as an illustration.
 
When we consider the plot as a whole, it doesn't provide anything novel. It's all well with the brothers and their drama. They don't really experience the extreme highs in their emotions. However, nothing is negative simultaneously. Both the deed and the objective are fulfilled. All in all, Raayan is a story about the brothers that is expected. What makes it work is the execution, which has excellent BGM and action. Try it if you enjoy action films, but when it comes to drama, have patience.
