This movie is very close to people's heart the reason being many could relate themselves to the characters of the movie and it could happen the same way with you if anytime in your life you had loved someone.The story is about a Hindu guy Kartik(Simbu)falling in love with a Christian girl named Jessie(Trisha)and shows the ups and downs and the hardships which the characters go through in their relation.The feeling of watching this movie is so subtle and so heart-warming that Director Gautham Menon has taken care of each and every detail shown in the movie which makes you to feel the movie rather than just watch it..The BGM of the movie is so beautiful and feels so apt that one will instantly fall in love with the music, A.R Rahman's music feels like heaven and multiplies the feel good factor of watching the movie.My fondness for this movie increases each time I watch it.The cinematography is beautiful and the movie has been shot at one of the best locales like Alleppey,Kerela and it just mesmerizes the attention of the audience and thus intensifying the romantic feel inside each one of us.In short one can live each and every moment while watching this movie and the experience is just splendid.I can say this is one of the best work of Actor Simbu,Trisha and the talented Director Mr.Gautham Menon.

I am really not sure how come so many liked the movie and i just did not like the movie at all.. For a start i am not a big fan of Simbu.. so my comments could be a little biased.. Simbu's way of dialogue delivery is not like-able at all.. he has a typical way of trying to copy Kamal but it just does not work... more over it looks like he is trying too hard to act... the love story also did not have any kind of depth to it.. boy sees girl, girl sees boy.. they see something in their eyes.. and they started loving each other.. since the first time they ever saw each other.. very silly, very very silly. there were only three things that i liked. The Music is awesome.. however i did not quite enjoy the background music at some places.. they sounded a little too loud for the scene. second is Trisha.. i think she showed how mature a actress she now is.. full points to her.. she looks a little old in the movie (perhaps that was meant to be).. but she looks very elegant.. She was also wonderfully dressed throughout the movie. a third thing i liked about the movie was the camera work and visualizations for the songs. these three things are typical of Gautham's movie. However no story, really makes the movie fall flat for me.I felt the movie was longer that it actually was.. kind of gave the feeling of watching a television serial close to its climax, when the producer wants to keep extending it for few more weeks.. I certainly got bored watching.. only thing that kept me going was because i was curious to know why the movie was a hit.. perhaps there was a very good ending.. but again disappointed.

With many expectations like Gautam Menon and AR Rehman's new combination and the knack for romance which Gautam has and delivers in each of his flicks, I went to see this. Result: Certainly i am way too satisfied with the movie. It exceeded all my expectations and apparently it lived up to its hype.Story: Karthick(simbhu) falls on love with Jessy (Trisha) when he sees her for the first time. ( A typical GM's love start)Jessy is from an orthodox Christian family while Karthick hails from a hindu family who aspires to be a director. As a golden rule in Tamil cinema's love, religion, father and every possible thing which comes to your mind put their love in disguise. And the story unfolds showing whether they have joined hands or left apart with an interesting climax.Performances: Simbhu has done a very nice underplay here and he shines. I always believe there is no such thing called a "good actor". Its all the director who pulls the talent out of an actor. And Gautam shows he is an expert in this in the form of Karthick's role.Trisha though looks pretty aged, blows us with her performance. She portrays a girl's emotions and the challenges which she undergoes with all finesse. Ganesh who comes as a friend of Karthick gets more applause than anyone when he utters those quirky remarks.Music: The world knows why Rahman is a genius. But at certain times, the music which has the upper hand sometimes suppresses the beautiful, poetic lyrics by Thamarai. Other than that Rahman tries fusing traditional Indian vocals with an awesome guitar play in Aaromale which is nothing short of a classic. Omana Penne, Manippaya gets better while watching on screen. Hosana is this year's Adiye Kolludhe! Its refreshingly new.Cinematography and Art: This guy simply blows away. Gautam shows his life he wanted to put on the screen through the lens' of this guy. A cinematographer or art director shouldn't be praised for his individual elements and tricks he employs in the movie. What matters is, even if its simple, how it gels with the flick really matters to me. in that sense Manoj and Raajevan win hands down. The choice of colors they used makes it simple but elegant in the screen.Editing: Antony should have been generously cut some 15 minutes of scenes in the second half as it spoils the flow of the flick.On the down side, songs were not in sync with the movie. Only when Aaromale and Mannipaya you feel a certain connectivity with the movie. Other songs though they feel good to hear, however doesn't go with the story. Being a little dragged during second half and songs every 10-15 minutes certainly spoils the movie's flow to an extent.But of late I didn't witness any honest story straight from the director like this. How frequent we come across a dialogue or a BGM playing in the movie make us getting goosebumps? The climax scene while trisha shaking hands with Simbhu and the Mannipaya playing in the background did bring me goosebumps. And this is why i like movies. When you feel for the character or you think yourself as a certain character, the director wins. And so Gautam Menon. Period.Forget the minor flaws(which could have been corrected by crisp editing) and whining about it.Watch a great, simple and honest love story with hurdles which they overcome being the ones you watched umpteen times in other movies but with a soul to it in VTV and with a different treatment.

A Beautiful experience with soulful music by A.R. Rahman and some great acting by its stars.The movie will capture the hearts of those around the age of 20-25.Both the main leads Silambarasan and Trisha have a done a great job.Superb Camera work,electrifying Score(Both music and background) by A.R. Rahman,great direction,very good screenplay to keep you hooked,great story and last but not the least,excellent performance by Silambarasan as Karthik and Trisha as Jesse.Watch the Movie if you are in love,if you were in love and also if you have loved and lost.At the end what you have is the feel that the movie gives you and which is hard to get away from your mind and heart for a long time.Mu verdict 5/5...a Movie with a Big Heart
