Plot - It is about a complex relationship between a girl and boy, which explores the complexity of girls' attitude.Performances - Naga Chaitanya is the best among the current lot when it comes to acting in romantic movies. May be, that quality is inherited by him from his father (Nagarjuna) and his grand father (Nageswara Rao) who are known as the best actors for romantic roles in their respective times. His cool attitude and underlying arrogance is just fabulous. He carried the role with élan. Samantha makes a fine debut. All other actors like Krishnudu, Sanjay Swaroop, Devan, Surekha Vani, Sudheer Babu,Lakshmy Ramakrishnan did well in their respective roles. Director Puri Jagannadh, Trisha Krishnan and Simbu shine in their brief cameos.Story, Screenplay & Direction - Story is wafer thin though a refreshing one. Screenplay is what makes this thin story-line workout. It is outstanding. Direction by Gautam is superb.Music & Background Score - Music by A.R.Rahman is just out of the world. It so melodious, intricate, intriguing, captivating, serene... Well words fall short to describe his genius. This is easily his best work for straight Telugu films. And the Background Score is equally extraordinary. Each and every emotion undergone by the lead couple has his backing. In a way, he carried the entire film on his able shoulders. This again proves a point that, what a great music composer can do to a subject which has scope for good music.Dialogues - Dialogues by Umarjee Anuradha are classy.Other technical Departments - Photography by Manoj Paramahamsa is just extraordinary. Editing is good. Art work is nice. Production values are excellent.Finally - This is a beautiful Lovestory and is shot beautifully & aesthetically. Don't go looking for some cheesy commercial elements. This is not for you if you anticipate a few laughs and larger than life fights. Thumbs up for Naga Chaitanya's acting, A.R.Rahman's music, Gautam Menon's direction and Manoj Paramahamsa's photography. Thumbs down for a (little) slow second half. Classic movie.

Reconsider before watching this film.The cliché's were too much to take and I kept thinking to myself whether or not the character's had gone mad! Granted, some people say that if a movie affected you enough to make you write a review about it, then the directer has done his job. Nevertheless, I am wondering whether or not a romance constitutes of complete confusion, wish-washy promises, and a complete disregard of logic. If so, then this is the general theme of the entire movie with an ending that satisfies all. Not to mention the complete lack of complexity of the female protagonist. (Spoiler) She barely spoke, and when she did, it was either reproachingly or overly dramatic. Either way, she was semi-obedient to her parents until she finally stood up for herself. That annoyed me the most. A female has to mature before she comes to her senses? She may have been two years older, but she certainly did not act like it. Adults, I'm assuming, speak their minds. Why couldn't she when Karthik did? The male lead, Karthik, did that way before she did even though he cowered away from Jessie's family when they were arguing with his. In conclusion, it is a mind-boggling film and if you want to be confused, go ahead, and watch it.

when i watched this movie, i kept thinking i so feel like i'm seeing an Indian version of '500 days of summer'. the quirky characters, contrasting personalities, great soundtrack, beautiful cinematography, witty dialogs are all too similar to the '500 days of summer' theme. so am i saying, is it bad? no. not at all. what i liked most about YMC is that it's not afraid of what it has to be. it doesn't have scene fillers, characters just for the sake of having it, songs, stupid dances, item songs that define the Indian ( Telugu) cinema.both the leads do their job well, keep you engrossed, but one thing i can find is, their acting seems to be pushed far by the director. sometimes, the acting looks too strained.and now the man himself, AR Rahman, i was interested in the movie, 'cos of him. what a kick ass soundtrack man, and the score, god, he just shows, why he's miles away from his contemporaries. i so love Shreya Ghoshal humming "aaromale" just after the interval.Gautham Menon, anybody who'd seen his previous movies would know he roots for urban settings, stylish dialogues involving a lot of English sometimes, and a lot of artificiality. you see them, you love them, but somehow you feel they're artificial when you walk out of cinema. that always happens with Mr.Menon. but that doesn't mean, he ain't talented. he definitely is. the attention to minute detail is very appreciable so are his shot angles and of course keeping the screenplay grounded to reality. it's not great film-making here, no surprise endings, a boy sees a girl, falls in love, proposes to her abruptly, only to find out she's confused all the time. he tortures her, as the lead says in one dialogue. he finally kisses and makes out with her in New York and they get married. end of story. one doubt? how does Karthik ( Naga Chaitanya) get Simbu and Trisha to sign a movie, without writing the climax? he even says to Jessie( Samantha Ruth Prabhu) that he's left with some 30 days of shooting... care to answer, Mr.Menon?

Ye Maya Chesave...It's about the love and only love,,,, i never seen a movie like this on telugu screen... I would like to appreciate Mr Gautham Vasudev Menon for his brave attempt...it is a movie of excellency...It is the story about two people and their feelings (excitements,conversations,fighting's & pain ) in love... the characters in this movie are so realistic and romantic... dialogues are very nice & simple, just like how we would talk to anyone in real life...Music by AR Rahman is excellent... songs are picturised well and placed nicely in the movie...
