I went into Con City expecting a heist film with the word con doing all the marketing heavy lifting and I walked out thinking about something entirely different. How strange it is that four people who lie for a living end up being the most emotionally honest family unit I’ve seen in a Tamil film all year.
That’s the trick Con City pulls off in its moments.. It’s also exactly where it stumbles when the plot machinery kicks in and starts demanding twists the story hasn’t quite earned.
Let me back up and actually tell you what this film is because the marketing around it has been a little scattered. Some outlets called it an action thriller others a crime drama and honestly the truest label is the one it’s a con-com.
A comedy about con artists, dressed up in the clothes of a family drama, set in the slightly overlooked city of Mangaluru instead of the usual Chennai or Madurai backdrop Tamil cinema keeps returning to.
A Family That Isn’t One Saravanan Arjun Das. Mithra Anna Ben look on the surface like an ordinary lower-middle-class couple running a modest eatery in Mangaluru. They have a son, Jeeva Akhilan who uses a wheelchair Living with them are Janaki Vadivukkarasi who plays the household matriarch and her son Jackie Yogi Babu a small‑time schemer with big‑time delusions of becoming a filmmaker.
For seven years this arrangement has held. The neighbours know them as a family. The local grocer knows them as a family. Even Jeeva in his way has grown into believing this fabricated unit is his real one.
Except none of them are related. Every single relationship in that household is a performance that started as a con and calcified into something resembling love. Or at least something close to love that nobody in the house wants to examine the difference too closely.
That’s a good premise and I want to give the film full credit for it before I get into where it loses its footing. Harish Durairaj, making his debut here isn’t interested in the will they get caught tension that most heist and con films lean on. He’s interested in something quieter
what happens to people who have spent long performing intimacy that they’ve forgotten how to tell the difference between the act and the real thing. When the film sits inside that question it’s genuinely absorbing.
When the Con Works If you watch the first hour of Con City you’d probably walk away thinking you’d found a low‑key gem of the year. The film takes its time. More time than a mainstream Tamil audience is used to. Establishing how this fake family actually functions day to day.
We see the choreography of their deception: Jackie and Mithra play siblings, both children of Janaki while Saravanan slots in as Mithras husband despite having zero biological connection to Jeeva. There’s a lived‑in, documentary quality to how believably these four have built domestic routines around a lie.
The scams themselves in this half are the films strongest set‑pieces. Without giving much away Saravanan runs an electricity‑board scam involving a rigged printer that feels specific and clever rather than generic movie‑heist nonsense.
The kind of scam that sounds like it could actually work on someone, which is exactly what a good con movie needs. It’s the difference between a con that exists because the plot needs one and a con that exists because the character logically would have thought of it. This one falls into the better category.
Arjun Das, an actor I’ve mostly seen play menacing coiled‑up characters in films like Vikram and Maaveeran is doing something here and it mostly works. He plays Saravanan with a kind of decency a man who fell into crime out of circumstance rather than appetite and who seems to genuinely enjoy the domestic normalcy of the con more than the con itself.
There’s a scene on where hes helping Jeeva with something mundane homework or a chore I won’t spoil the specifics and Das plays it with none of the intensity he’s known for. It’s a almost tender register. It’s a .

Anna Ben, as Mithra is arguably the anchor of the film. Shes playing a woman who’s simultaneously the most competent con artist in the house and the most conflicted about what the constant performance is costing her relationship with Jeeva, who believes she’s his biological mother. Ben has a way of holding grief and warmth in the expression and the film leans on that skill more than once. If theres a reason to watch Con City beyond curiosity about the premise it’s her performance.
