Chaverpada (2010)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Chaverpada tells the story of a group of engineering college students Ameer (Manikuttan), Abhimanyu (Arun), Vivek (Vivek) and Tony (Tony) who have developed a means of their own to voice their protests against the ills that have gripped today's society. The testing phase of a software that they have developed causes unexpected jams in the traffic signals as well as the wireless system of the city. The youngsters realize that they are in trouble when the cops find out more about the incident. Police moved to the college to arrest them. However, they are kidnapped by the terrorists before the cops could lay their hands on them. Visal Sabhapathi (Bala), the leader of the N. S. G. Commando wing, is soon called in to look into the case and rescue the students.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
