We have had some action-oriented films down South this year. ‘Gatta Gusti’, the Tamil-language sports comedy film directed by Chella Ayyavu definitely falls in this genre. The protagonist Keerthi (played by Aishwarya Lekshmi) is a wrestling champion who is married to a man who is unaware of her past. He has always wanted to marry a timid, not very educated woman and thinks Keerthi falls under the category. However, their marriage does not turn out the way they both expected.
