This is a Tamil language movie, released in 2010, directed by Goutham V Menon (GVM), starring Silambarasan and Trisha in the leading roles.
A simple love story told in a Goutham Menon style, with all ingredients of his usual recipe followed like a half spoon of Tanglish, half spoon of over the top romance, a pinch of romantic cringe, four spoons of dream song sequences, one-third spoon of length of the movie, a bit of heartbreak and two spoons of amazing locations.
Of course, this movie will have a cult following as well as financial success at the box office, critics, as well as viewers, will like this movie because it is fresh for its time. Good Alappuzha locations (Kudos to the cinematographer) and amazing music by the legendary AR Rahman.
Its a sweet emotional love-drama with heartbreaks and a different ending to the movie. Sometimes I feel the movie is dragged but in some places, I felt it is necessary.
Simbhu has done a good job where I had a different image of him before this movie which completely changed by now, and Trisha is the one who you should be looking forward to, she will remain in our mind with this image for a very long time, she was tremendous in this movie, GVM brought the best of her (Acting and looks).
Movie could have shortened and those usual GVM cringes could have edited out, which would have made this movie a classic for me, but still remains very close to a classic.
I rate this a 68%.
WATCH IT for a Goutham Menon style love story, as always there are emotions, love, heartbreaks but it also comes with a little bit of cringe.
Surprisingly, as on April, 2020, I couldn't find this movie (Tamil) to stream anywhere in India. Maybe it will be available in some platform soon.
