Driver Jamuna Review

Movie Plot

Driver Jamuna doesn't just concentrate on female drivers. The story centers on Jamuna (Aishwarya Rajesh), a cab driver who, by chance, ends up traveling to a wedding with three other men, a singer (Abhishek Kumar) and Jamuna. Jamuna is unaware that the three passengers are contract murderers traveling to kill a former MLA. Jamuna is forced to survive while defending others since she is caught in a dangerous predicament with the goons and the cops. Abhishek Kumar, a comedian, and social media celebrity, plays the aspiring musician, providing a charming and hilarious touch to the plot even though the movie seeks to build suspense. He's a lot of fun to watch because of his amusing transformation when he finds the crooks and his hilarious attempts to play ominous music in the taxi while unaware of the danger.

Review

India Times

The immersive thriller that Driver Jamuna promises falls short of the viewer's expectations. The movie turns into a formulaic ride with little substance because there are few confrontations and shallow moments. Jamuna, a passionate taxi driver with an unknown past, is first introduced. Her life takes a perilous turn when she accidentally rides with three hired killers. Maragadhavel, an ex-MLA, and his son end up being the murderers' intended victims. Jamuna is drawn into this battle, which makes her journey difficult. The movie's suspense gradually wears off, and the characters start acting absurdly. Although the climax has a twist, the events don't have the impact required to elicit empathy from spectators. While other characters have little opportunity to demonstrate their acting skills, Aishwarya Rajesh gives a strong performance. The ambiance of the movie is nicely enhanced by the music and cinematography. Despite some interesting moments, driver Jamuna does not succeed in being a fascinating road movie that viewers would willingly choose.

Hindustan Times

Aishwarya Rajesh has made a name for herself as a self-assured leading lady, taking on roles in films like Driver Jamuna, where she carries the narrative's burden. The suspense movie takes a predictable route but delights viewers with a clever turn. The payoff makes up for the predictable plot and provides a satisfying experience. After her father passes away, Jamuna, played by Aishwarya Rajesh, decides against her aunt's wishes to become a taxi driver. She finds out during a ride that her guests are hired killers on a mission to kill a local priest. The majority of the thrills are saved for the last 10 minutes of the movie, which may not be appealing to everyone. The movie builds up to its climax gradually.

The story, however, shows wit by putting up a predictable front that is ultimately shattered by a strong twist. Highlights of the movie include the accurately planned vehicle action scenes, which heighten the tension. Aishwarya gives a good performance in the lead role, but the rest of the ensemble doesn't make much of an impression. Overall, improved writing would have helped Driver Jamuna keep readers' attention for the first hour.

Aishwarya Rajesh, a rising star in the Tamil film industry, has shown her acting talent by making wise selections in her filmography. There was a lot of excitement about her movie Driver Jamuna, which centers on a female cab driver. The plot centers on Jamuna, played by Aishwarya Rajesh, who accepts a ride from three crooks who are actually planning a high-profile homicide.

The movie presents an intriguing premise but falls short of living up to expectations. The audience is left to doubt the intelligence of both the perpetrators and the police as a result of the narrative's apparent flaws and logical inconsistencies. Although Aishwarya Rajesh gives a respectable performance, the hurried scenes and perplexing passages leave viewers baffled. In the final act, where the plot's threads are joined and offer a satisfying resolution, the movie receives some consolation. The climax, though, lacks emotional power and turns out to be predictable. Aadukalam Naren, Sriranjini, Manikanta, and Kavitha Bharathi are among the supporting actors who give strong performances. Gokul Benoy's superb cinematography enhances the movie. The thriller Driver Jamuna might have been tighter and more compelling if the screenplay had received more care.
