3 - Fantasizing about a beautiful L.O.V.E story

Have you ever heard of "Why This Kolaveri Di?" song? If you haven't, please do so because you had just missed the global phenomenon on Youtube.

This song have reached about 50 million views currently and 28 million views just after a few days released on Youtube. It went so viral that there were a lot of cover version for this song from Dutch until Japan. There are replies from the girls for this song, R&B version, Punjabi version and flashmobs in Chennai and Malaysia.

Nothing special about this song actually. It's a song written using a very simple English in an Indian way where the lyricist (in this case, it's Dhanush) add "eu" at the end of each English word. The music is addictive and with such easier-to-understand lyrics, the song is a major hit!

So about the movie, I went to watch it on 4th April 2012, the 6th day after the movie was released worldwide on 30th March 2012. The show was at 11.55pm and in GSC in Summit Subang. Sagee bought tickets for all nine of us on online (thanks,girl ^_^ )

About the movie, you can check it out at Wikipedia as they gave out the whole story there. It's basically about the love story between Ram and Janani since their school days. Ram (Dhanush) met Janani (Shruthi Hassan) on a rainy day and fall for her. With that, he started to go after her. Cliché methods such as following her to tuition, waiting to see her and portraying the "intelligent" side of him in tuition. The movie's dramatic ending was the death of Ram. Janani went on looking for the real reason behind her husband's death and finally broke down after finding the truth.

This movie was directed by the Tamil Movie industry's Superstar Rajinikanth's eldest daughter, Aishwarya Dhanush and acted by Dhanush and another great actor of all time, Kamal Hassan's daughter, Shruthi Hassan. Music is by Anirudh Ravichander, the nephew of Latha Rajinikanth.

Music has been the backbone of the movie. All the songs in the movie are so addictive and were hit overall. The lyrics for all song were written by Dhanush except for "Come on girls" which is by Aishwarya herself.

The chemistry between Dhanush and Shruthi Hassan is awesome as they perfectly portrays the love between them. To stand watching her husband being close on screen with another girl, I salute Aishwarya's belief in her husband.

The story is simple and made a lot of my friends ask "is this kind of love even possible now?". I would love to answer, that love is meant to be possible for Ram and Janani. If you want such love story, then create one for yourself. That love story is possible because of the way it is actually plotted so never compare your love life with the movie's.

Over all, it's an enjoyable commercial movie. My personal rating would be 7 out of 10.
