I have only myself to blame. The silly title offered me enough warning - and i went ahead and watched the movie anyway, hoping for a good family movie with Jeyam Ravi and Trisha.
The movie sucks. Is Thamizh cinema that starved for original ideas? The movie's story is a straight lift from Maine Pyar Kiya. To make matters worse, there are entire sequences lifted from Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam. The gaiety looks terribly artificial (i have been to a million Thamizh weddings, when do people do impromptu bhangras?)
Trisha does her usual thing, but her standard four expressions that she alternates through this movie and all her other movies (mischeivous, sad, supportive-to-the-hero - repeat)are tiring . Jeyam Ravi is made to overact all through first half, though he is watchable in the second half.
By the way, the hero and his family are supposed to be from London. There are shots of his dad (Bhagyaraj) talking on the phone with a "London" backdrop. There are huge skyscrapers and 5 lane (on one side) expressways. I have travelled to London many times, so correct me if i am wrong, is that really London?
