He manages to make the beautiful girl Keerthi (Anupama Parameswaran) fall in love with him, but their relationship takes a turn when Keerthi decides to part ways with him due to his carefree attitude. Dragon takes a game-changing decision, and the consequences of this decision form the crux of the story. Where does Kayadu Lohar fits into the narrative. Why Keerthi returns to Raghavan&#8217;s life forms the rest of the story.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Performances<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Pradeep Ranganathan delivers an impressive performance, showcasing his range as an actor. He brings depth to his character, highlighting the variations in his personality. Pradeep Ranganathan once again delivers a solid performance. His appearance, tension-filled performance, and emotional expressions in the climax are commendable. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Mysskin, the noted director, plays the college principal and is outstanding in his role.

Pradeep Ranganathan&#8217;s impressive performance and Ashwath Marimuthu&#8217;s direction make the film an entertaining watch. While the story is engaging, the screenplay could have been more polished, especially in the second half. Overall, Return of The Dragon is a decent attempt at creating a youthful entertainer with a message.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">The film&#8217;s technical elements, including the music by Leon James and cinematography by Nikesh Bommireddy, are noteworthy.
