I recently got to watch the Tamil movie Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa on my comp (without sub-titles!
). Directed by Gautam Menon, this movie is about a Hindu guy and a Christian girl falling in love with each other, and the confusion and difficulties they face in their lives from there on.
The story is very slow, with very few characters apart from Simbu and Trisha, but the cinematography and locales, and awesome music by A R Rahman, more than make up for it. Simbu looks very decent for a change, and Trisha looks prettier than ever!
…
There are a few songs from the movie which are my personal favourites :
Omana Penne : Sung by Benny Dayal and Kalyani Menon, this song reflects the feelings of a new love emerging in one’s heart. It is fresh and lively, thanks to Benny Dayal (of ‘Pappu can’t Dance Saala’ fame)
Kannukkul Kannai : Sung by Naresh Iyer, this song revolves around the wait that a guy goes through when he has proposed to his lady-love. Very hip-hop type, and great dancing by Simbu!
Mannipaaya : Sung by the legendary A. R. Rahman and Shreya Ghoshal, this is one of the most melodious songs of recent times. Soft and soothing, Shreya Ghoshal continues to charm with her magical voice
Anbil Avan : A very rocking number sung by Devan Ekhambaram and Chinmayi. The tune makes you feel like you are inside a church, attending a marriage
There are other songs as well, like Aaromale, Hosanna and the title track itself, which enhance the otherwise dull storyline. My suggestion is that you should watch this movie atleast once, for the brilliant music, fantastic cinematography, and for the ever-so-gorgeous Trisha!

Haven’t seen it yet.
being a hindu girl who married a christian boy
But i guess i would probably live through the story well
Hey…thats nice to know!
…You’ll probably like the movie more than I did then
Ya nikki.. lovely movie! n Trisha.. omg! I love t first dialogue Simbu says when he sees her n t last dialogue of t movie!

Don’t have patience to watch/read movies/books where story continues at a slow rate.

Interesting Read..
One of the most realistic movies that have come in recent times. Though slow, it leaves a lump in your throatt in the end. ARR is God and he proves it again with this album. This movie is said to be based on the experiences of its director.
