Sathuranga Vettai (2014)

In the thrilling web of deception and cunning that is Sathuranga Vettai, our protagonist, Gandhi Babu, a masterful con artist played by Natraj, weaves ingenious scams with a finesse that leaves his victims none the wiser. From peddling common snakes as exotic treasures to the unsuspecting masses, to building dreams of wealth and luxury around a phantom 'multi-level marketing' company, Gandhi Babu's scams are as varied as they are audacious. As he navigates his way through the world with a charmingly ruthless wit, he pulls off 'the rice pulling scam', an audacious deception that catapulted him into the annals of notorious conmen. Despite a brief interruption in his charade when he's arrested, the amassed wealth from his scams ensures his swift release, allowing him to return to his games with renewed vigour, untroubled by guilt or remorse. Banu, portrayed by Ishara Nair, is a beacon of innocence in this murky world. Coming from a poor family, she finds herself entwined in Gandhi Babu's devious plans when she starts working for him, eventually falling for his deceptive charm. Yet for this ruthless trickster, love takes a backseat to his insatiable greed, leading to heartbreak and betrayal. Gandhi Babu's world takes an unexpected turn when his well-laid plans misfire, landing him in the grasp of a brutal gang demanding that he craft schemes on their behalf. This unexpected predicament sets the stage for further suspense, as Gandhi Babu must use his wits to survive and continue his deceptive dance. Sathuranga Vettai is a riveting tale that explores the darker side of human greed and deceit, a world where the gullible and greedy are prey, and the cunning predator is king. This narrative is a chilling reminder of the age-old adage - caveat emptor, let the buyer beware.
