Devarattam is another film model made by director Muthiah, from a village near Madurai. He films in a rural or semi-urban Madurai, as his mentor, the actor turned director, Sasikumar, a few years ago. Village-based mbad entertainers have always been safe choices for commercial filmmakers, as they always think they have audiences in the Level 2 and 3 markets.

This is Muthiah's fifth film in five years and the director has so far made an impressive outing at the box office. The story remains the same with minor changes here and there. This is an angry young man who takes the coat reluctantly after being pushed to avenge the wicked murderer in a very violent way. Immerse yourself in an emotional angle filled with maternal or fraternal feelings, a love story that blooms after the usual misunderstandings, a popular comedian who has his own track, a little caste politics and some social issues of current . Other regular ingredients, such as temple festival chants and slow idle fights ensure that the film resonates with the mbades.
Devarattam follows the pattern of the story of Muthiah – Vettri (Gautam Karthik) lives in a common family of six sisters and their husbands. He was raised by his older sister (Vinodhini) and their relationship more apparent to that of a mother and his son. Vettri has a problem with anger and is fighting unnecessarily. But all family members love him because he is the first advocate of their family. However, soon, he goes to court when he kills a bad offender – his friend, who is the son of Madurai's dreaded gangster, Kodumpavi Ganesan (FEFSI Vijayan). Ganesan swears revenge and promises to kill Vettri as he murdered his son in the streets of Madurai in broad daylight.
The story and presentation are as old as the Kodaikbad Hills and resemble the plot of Muthiah's previous films. The main problem of the film is borrowed from the recent case of badual badault Pollachi. What works for the film is Gautam Karthik's vivid performance as an angry young lawyer, Vettri. With Devarattam, M Muthaiah gives Gautham Karthik the opportunity to get rid of his image of boy in love with the city and become a hero of rural action en mbade. But projecting it as an army made up of one man attacking a beefy villain seems a little far-fetched. Manjima Mohan looks good on the screen but has almost no hard-hitting scenes. Vinodhini, as the hero's older sister, does a neat job, especially in the climax. The music of Nivas K Prasanna is hummable and the camera of Sakthi Saravanan draws attention.
The film has a pacy first half, but the tempo drops in the second half as the story progresses to a predictable climax. In the end, Devarattam seems to be just another film that shows Madurai as a traditional land that is also a place soaked in blood and lawless where cops and gangsters stand hand-in-hand. And, just like its background, such a movie will only appeal to those who enjoy watching movies shot in Madurai.
