But Siddharth moves to Chennai without informing Nitya and stays in a house owned by a couple Murthy (Mouli) and Jayam (Geetha). He gets close with them.

But Nitya meets with an accident. Siddharth takes the responsibility to get her back to health. Meanwhile a flashback reveals that Siddharth is a doctor in San Francisco, USA and was attracted to a fun-loving girl Renu (Priya Anand). They get married. But here is the twist, Siddharth is effected with Cancer and he would die in few months. Siddharth comes to India after learning his situation.

Now, after flashback, Siddharth takes Nitya to USA for treatment. What will happen is rest of the story. What is 180 is the main story.


Performance

It's a superb show by Siddharth. He carries the entire movie on his shoulders and at no point does he show the slightest strain

Priya Anand looks gorgeous. Special applause to the stylist! Going beyond looks, we must add that in terms of acting and emoting, she is on target. Nithya Menon as the journalist  does her part well.

Sri Charan as Siddharth's friend deserves a mention. Mouli walks away with aplause for his portrayal. The cast includes Geetha, Lakshmi Ramakrishnan, Thanikala Bharani and Janaki Sabesh.

Analysis
Everything looks fabulous and refreshing in the movie. From the banks of the Ganges to the bay lanes of Chennai, and finally the skyline of San Francisco, everything looks picture-perfect and yet realistic.

Jayendra starts to leave an impression with his visual in the first frame itself. The story or the narration may be very familiar, but the catchy dialogues and he sequence penned by Jayendra along with writers Subha is good.

Balasubramaniem's camera work deserves special mention

The first song is entirely shot in super slow motion. While it is an interesting experiment and some of the visuals are brilliant.

Highlights:
* Siddharth's performance
* Creative direction by Jayendra
* Catchy visuals
* Good Technical Standards
* Good music by Sharreth

Finally 180 is Just Ok Movie
