Tamil Movie Review

Vinnai Thaandi Varuvaaya is a captivating love story, narrated with precision in Gautham Vasudev Menon's signature style. The appeal of the film is enhanced by the lead pair Simbhu and Trisha with their fantastic onscreen chemistry, the terrific music by Oscar winner AR Rahman and the stunning visuals from Manoj Paramahamsa. Anyone who has fallen in love can relate to the story.

The Story begins like this, Karthik (Silambarasan) a mechanical engineering graduate from a Hindu Vellalar community who's just out of college, dreams of becoming a film maker. He meets IT professional Jessie (Trisha), a Malayalee Christian girl and falls in love at first sight. Karthik lives with his parents, on the ground floor of a house owned by Jessie's father (Babu Antony), whose family occupy the top floor. Karthik befriends cinematographer Ganesh (producer Ganesh) who helps him get a job as assistant to acclaimed director K S Ravikumar. Meanwhile, the love-struck Karthik follows Jessie wherever she goes. One day unexpectedly he confesses his love for her.

Jessie, however, is shocked and more concerned about her father, who she knows would never agree to such an alliance. Their personalities too are poles apart. Jessie is cold and controlled, while Karthik is passionate and impulsive. He strongly believes that Jessie is concealing her true feelings for him. Finally after several meetings they come to an agreement to be just friends, but a train journey from Alleppey draws them closer and Jessie's real feelings are revealed. Just when everything seems to be perfect, Jessie expresses her uncertainty over the relationship. She wants romance, but with the consent of her father, which leaves Karthik in a state of confusion. After several mix ups, Jessie finally tells Karthik that she will not meet him any more and has decided to marry a boy of her father's choice. The movie's suspense and tension lies in whether Karthik and Jessie unite in wedlock or part ways. The end is unconventional.

The film is more character driven than incident driven and truly belongs to the lead pair Simbhu and Trisha. Simbhu delivers a knockout performance devoid of his usual antics. With his body language perfectly suited to a love smitten boy of his age, aided by apt dialogues, he scores in every frame and is a treat to watch.

The credit goes to Gautham Menon for his inspired casting. Trisha in a complex part is a revelation. She slips into the role of a cold hearted beauty with ease. Trisha's character is enhanced with minimal makeup and simple outfits by Nalini Sriram. There's a sprinkling of humor as the one-liners and gags shared by Ganesh and Simbhu evoke instant laughter. Among the supporting cast, Babu Antony, Kitty, Uma Padmanabhan are convincing.

AR Rahman spells romance in every song whether it's the opening delight Hosana or the poetic Omana Penne, his music simply rocks. Manoj's camera beautifully captures the lush greenery of Kerala, picturesque old churches of Malta and some fresh locales in the USA. Antony's slick editing and Rajeevan's art direction add to the authentic feel of the film.
There is, however, a downside. The movie drags and moves at a slow pace in the second half. Some of the dialogues, including the altercations between the lead pair, are repetitive.Despite all this, Gautham weaves a romantic, magical tale which will linger in our minds for a long time. Devoid of clichéd villains, silly comedy and mindless action, VTV should not be missed.

Few days ago well known actor Silambarasan specially known as "The Little Superstar or The Young Superstar" celebrated his Birthday in a grand manner. Most of of film fraternity attended the party to felicitate actor Simbu.

As the most expected film of Simbu Vinnaithandi Varuvaya which is directed by Gautham Menon and the music is scored by A.R.Rahman is about to release soon. The music of this film has made it to #1 on the chart and it was the first film from Tamil film industry whose audio launch was held in foriegn country(London, U.K). Iam sure Vinnaithandi Varuvaya will be a massive hit like Vaaranam Aayiram.

Latest buzz about Simbu is that the ace director Mani Ratnam have approached Simbu for his next film and the actor have also agreed to the director without any hesitation.

Vinnaithandi Varuvaya will portray Simbu and Trisha in a different form as Gautham have directed this film in very different manner, waiting to watch this movie in big screen.

I think its one of the awesome party i have ever seen bcos Ultimate Star Ajith Kumar and his wife Shalini Kumar were present and even Sarath Kumar and wife Radhika Sarath Kumar were present at the party.

Other who attended were Director K.S.Ravikumar, Gautham Menon, Venkat Prabhu, Dharani, Bala. Actor Ajith Kumar, Sarath Kumar, Arya, Bharath, Siva, Jai, Premgi, Music Director Yuvan Actress Shalini, Radhika, Trisha and even some serial star were present at party.

Finally, actress Trisha will be seen sharing screen space with the versatile and top Indian actor Kamal Haasan for his next untitled film directed by K.S.Ravikumar. Many say that the Ulaganayagan himself wanted Trisha to play the female lead role, which is said to be performance oriented. Insiders also reveal that the entire film will be shot in the USA in one schedule and the actress has been asked to dole out dates at a stretch. The movie is produced by Udhayanidhi Stalin under the Red Giant movies banner.

It may be recalled that Trisha missed out the opportunity of teaming up with Kamal on two earlier occasions -- first it was Dasavatharam when she could not accommodate the dates and the second being in his magnum opus Marma Yogi, a period flick which did not take off despite an official announcement.

In the history of Tamil films its the first time, the audio release of a Tamil film which was held outside the country. The Silambarasan & Trisha starrer Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya’s audio was released in London on Saturday, December 19, 2009. The Double Oscar winner Rahman composed music for Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya and the album has seven songs, one of which is rendered by Rahman himself.

Few songs were screened at the venue to the jubilant NRI audience and the dias of the event was shared by Gautam Menon, Rahman, Silambarasan and Trisha clad in ravishing black outfits. The movie, a breezy romantic story, is expected to catapult Silambarasam to the big league and is expected to be released on 14th February, 2010, on the Valentines Day.

As we all know that Trisha is all set for her Bollywood debut opposite Akshay Kumar in Priyadarshan's Khatta Meetha, and after reducing a couple of kilos of weight, the actress looks all set for her new venture. The shooting of this Hindi movie is expected to begin from October 1st in an island, which is a two-hour drive from Mumbai. But actually the shoot was planned at Panchgani? for which Trisha denied the fact, Trisha is right now busy at Salzburg, Austria where she is currently shooting for the Telugu movie Namo Venkatesa opposite Tollywood star Venkatesh. She's joining Priyadarshan only from October 15.

The secret behind her new look is Power yoga, she learnt it in Chennai from a trained instructor called Maya. This form of yoga is easy for her to practice it in her hotel room which she does for half an hour everyday before she leave's for shooting. The pretty actress reveals another secret to her trim figure is no-oil diet.

Priyadarshan films always have a dash of humor in them. She was appreciated for her sense of timing in some of Telugu films and even in Tamil. In Khatta Meetha she has lots of scope to prove her acting skills and explore her talent with regards to comedy. Some of the top names in fashion like Rocky S, Neeta Lulla and Manish Malhotra are being considered to style Akshay's and her costumes in this movie. But all that we can say at this point is Akshay Kumar's films always have the right combination of glamor and style and since this is his home production, one can definitely expect the same.

Trisha Krishnan who entered Kollywood through director Priyadharshan who's also Trisha's mentor. Trisha is very happy that her lucky director again giving her good break but this time its Bollywood. Trisha was waiting for such opportunity or a long time lucky that she got it from Priyadharshan.

Trisha will pair with Bollywood action king Akshay Kumar in movie Khatta Meeta and Priyadharshan will direct it and the music will be scored by Pritam Chakraborty, the film will have six songs and the movie will be a romantic comedy. I think Trisha actually suits for these romantic comedy role, hope this will give her a good break in bollywood. Trisha the second heroine after Asin to step into Bollywood that to pair opp with big stars.

When Akshay Kumar was looking for new face for Khatta Meeta it was Priyadharshan who suggested Trisha to Akshay, then they saw some for her films and they got impressed. Then Trisha flew down to Bollywood for a discussion and everything turned fine.

The Movie will commence in October and expected to finish it in one single schedule. Now will Trisha shine like Asin.
