Unlike some of his recent outings like Lion and Paisa Vasool which shows him in overblown roles, Balakrishna gives a restrained performance in this film which is loaded with chilling action sequences, entertainment, and heart-wrenching emotions. Ten minutes through the second hour, an overdose of melodrama further slackens the film’s pace. The story begins to unravel from the pre-interval episode and becomes quite predictable. He extracts a strong performance not only from Balakrishna, but also from the supporting cast including LB Sriram, Prabhakar and Murali Mohan. The director handles this hour competently with some feel-good moments in a territory that seems quite familiar to us.

The first hour of Jai Simha is entertaining with Balakrishna in his elements - the best part is the actor’s discourse about priests and slokas. Who is Narasimha and why is he on the run forms the essence of Jai Simha. Meanwhile, he gets framed for the murder of the town’s dreaded gangster Kaniyappan’s (Kalakeya Prabhakar) brother. During the course of his life there, Narasimha learns that his childhood sweetheart Gowri (Nayanthara), who hates him due to some reason lives there.

He lands in Kumbakonam, earns a living as a driver to the village temple’s trustee - played by Murali Mohan. The film introduces Balakrishna as Narasimha, a man with a dubious past, who leads a nomadic life with his one-year-old son.
