மரணத்திற்கும் ஆசை வந்து விட்டது என நினைக்கிறேன், முள்ளை நமக்கு கொடுத்து விட்டு மலரை (மகேந்திரன்) அது பறித்து கொண்டது. அவர் பயணம் விண்ணுலகிலும் தொடரும்.

When it is director Mahendran's movie, you can see extraordinary performance from every actor/actress...
In Johny movie, when sridevi propose her love to rajini; which he rejects; she gets disappointed; then Rajini accepts her love; she smiles with tears. - all will happen in a single shot without camera movement... Rajini, sridevi acting, ellaamae Vera level... Vera level...
