Romance seems to be the buzzword in Kollywood now. It’s time for clichéd commercial masala movies to move over. The recent ‘Vinnai Thaandi Varuvayaa’ is followed by ‘Yathumaagi’, a mellifluous romantic flick.
With a host of newcomers, producer Chozha Ponnurangam seems to have tried his [...]
What is it like thinking beyond the conventional story telling? Look at an individual’s life and when there’s a regular scenario that needs a simple solution, you would probably hear some one telling ‘Mathi Yosi’ or in plain English – ‘Think Differently’. And this is exactly the essence that is prevalent [...]
Films celebrating empowerment of women are rare in Tamil cinema. ‘Aval Peyar Thamizharasi’ is one such flick that is more heroine-centric with a strong storyline. Debutant filmmaker Meera Kadhiravan deserves a pat for trying something away from regular commercial films.
Movie Name – Road

Vishnu [Abhay Deol], a restless young man, itches to escape his father’s faltering hair oil business. An old truck beckons, which Vishnu sees as his ticket to freedom. As he sets off across the harsh terrain [...]
Three cheers to Gautham Vasudev Menon, the big daddy of romance is back with a bang! His Vinnaithandi Varuvaaya (VTV) is pure magic. This one works and grabs us where it matters; VTV is straight from the heart.
10 years after his candy floss Minnale, Menon’s VTV is a far more mature Valentine.
Srikanth looses out terribly with yet another tedious script that doesn’t capture your interests at any points…. Director Vidyadharan has come up with such a storyline that doesn’t hold the attention and the flimsy screenplay adds more to the spoiler factor.
Vishal’s TVP starts of in a breezy manner and sets the mood for an engaging romantic comedy but has a far-out plot. The comedy team of Santhanam, Satyan and Mayilsami are a super treat and holds the film together in the first half, while Prakash Raj in a cameo passes muster.
The story is not new one, it is all about style and substance and the film is loaded with rich visuals and breathtaking sequences, making it a quality outing.
