Plot
Adhi, working as SW Engineer and big dreams of becoming an icon like Bill Gates with lot of money. Tara, Architect dreams of going to Paris, she had a bad past with her father got separated from her mother. Both were against institution of marriage and unnecessary commitments. They decided to live together and through the incidents in their life understands things which they were never experienced before!!
Actors' Performances
DQ -- WOW!!!
Nitya -- Wonderful!!!
Prakashraj -- Awesome!!!
Leela -- Good!!!
Direction - Mani
Each scene has a definite Mani magic!! He is back with a bang!! Some of the scenes
1. Church scene
2. Taking Adhi to hospital
3. Temple scene where the story about Leela unveils
4. Final search scene
5. Portrayal of Leela - prakash romance
Music & BGM - ARR
What can I say the brilliance of ARR!! Scene by scene what a BGM score. If you like the music before, BGM is sure to supersede that!! As said in some reviews, BGM is another character in the film! The songs are blended with the film (like in RDB) and no imaginative prioritization or dance items which are outside the theme.
1. Kaara Attakkara -- Start with this and comes when the video game part comes in the film!
2. Mental manadhil -- Situational energy song at 25th min and climax
3. Maula wa sallim -- comes as backgrond song when Tara visits the architectural monument
4. Paranthu sellava -- Really good one portraying the feelings of lead couple. You will like the song more when u watch the film.
5. Naane Varukirein -- Situation song indicating she has come to her. I feel Mani could have given full song in this...in the film only one stanza is there.
6. Malarkal ketein -- Comes nearly at end of first hour and as Tara try to impress Leela (who is a carnatic singer) by singing this. Again the song comes as background at around 1.30 hours in the hospital.
7. Aiy sanamika -- Comes when Adhi misses Tara on first occasion. Wonderfully done!!
8. Theera Ulla -- Final 10 days of Tara - Adhi together..Good one!!
Camera - PCS
Wonderful man..pic by pic...frame by frame..Some of the scenes show awesomeness are
1. In Architectural mosque where Adhi sits top of the monument and Tara sits on the ground part and water flowing through the vacant space between them!!
2. All rain scenes
3. Aiy Sanamika
4. Paranthu sellava
5. Naane varukirein end scene and focus given on the fish and other items in the room...
......
.....
Never ending list
Positives
1. Fight between 3 genius -- Mani, ARR, PCS -- After end of the film u wonder who was the best among 3...
2. Lead pair performance -- DQ, Nithya
3. Performance of supporting cast -- Prakashraj, Leela
4. How the emotions of youth are portrayed in the film and its transformations
Negatives
1. Single line story -- who cares
2. Some similarity with Alaipayuthe on how the emotions gets transformed -- both films drives on the same...Basic story no similarity!!
Verdict
Thumbs up..and 4/5...(Low class audience may not like)
Chances of Blockbuster
Note: This is my first detailed review..So please excuse for the pattern mistakes
