Kadhalil Sodhappuvadhu Yeppadi

Kaadhalil Sodappuvadhu Eppadi, the short film that won the name and fame for director Balaji Mohan gets made into a full length feature film. A promising debut, Balaji Mohan!The film conveys that there is "no made for each other couple" that we come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly. the story , screenplay and presentation about boys, girls, love and heartache is worth a look. the chemistry between lead actors; cinematography and music are positive aspects of the film. A romantic comedy makes an appearance in Tamil cinema after a long gap.

cheers for Balaji Mohan for a good debut venture...

It was the one movie that I had seen closest to the reality. Ever since I saw the short film "How to mess up in LOVE", I was surprised by the way the director etched up such a cute complete story in just 8-9 minutes. Even i was passionate about movies and always wanted to make one but it never happened. The film maker in me felt inspired seeing that short film and wished all my best luck for Balaji Mohan and I felt it actually worked when I heard his upcoming movie with Siddarth as Kadhalil Sodhappuvadhu Yeppadi in Tamil and LOVE Failure in Telugu. The direction of the movie, if its not what you call Awesome, I really have no idea what else to call it!! The performances are very natural from Siddarth, heroine and everyone else. The casting just looks perfect!! A perfect trend setting cinematic style with a novel screenplay is what I'd call it :)

its a very good cool movie.the causal disturbances which arise between lovers & even wife and husband due to the problem of Ego and misunderstandings.life is nothing but adjustments and patching up with the one whom we love.songs are awesome and all the actors worked well.boys who want to love sum1 must see and should be ready to face the complex situations in the love life.all types of love and the reasons for the failure are all showed in a very perfect way.Happy to watch the movie....So love is a very important thing in any1's life.please do not break up for small small misunderstandings..girls love will be always ultimate boys have to adjust and understand them for having a very happy life...

Good Movie. Everybody acted good in the movie. Songs and BGM in the movie were good. The comedy scenes in the movie were so good. The movie was not so boring. The movie somewhat lagged at some scenes. This movie is one of the Best Movie of Siddharth. Good Movie.

Kadhalil Sodhappuvadhu eppadi, if you don't know by now, is a 9 min short film with the same name which received positive reviews and has been expanded into a 2 hour movie. The short film is on youtube and can be viewed here.

The storyline is nothing new. Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus. They are so different in the way they think that they can never be made for each other. Good relationships happen only when both partners understand this and make compromises. One must give credit to Balaji however for the fresh script and a different way of narration. While it might be easier to come up with a short film and make an impact, I think it is very difficult to blow it into a 2 hour movie without blowing up. I also liked the way the heroine's parents failing marriage and its resurrection was weaved into the story.

Sidharth might have crossed 30 but doesn't really look a misfit as a college student. His antics really suit the college boy Arun who constantly messes up in love and keeps lamenting to the audience. Amala Paul as Paaru is cute and impresses as a college girl who is unsettled by her Parents failing marriage and struggles to understand her love interest Arun and ends up pouring all her emotional tantrums on him. All other characters including the friends and the hero and heroine's parents have done a good job. The music by Taman is really good and there are 2 songs which appeal - Paarvathi Paarvathi and Azhaippaya.

Anyone who has fallen in love or is married can appreciate the view points presented in the movie. Humour in the movie is not artificial and is woven into the storyline. The hero's friends are all new faces, thank god there are no old comedians coming as college students! There are some really interesting anecdotes shared in the movie like comparing girls to a monalisa picture in the museum and saying from whatever direction you look it looks like the picture / girl is looking at you. Showing a waterfall every time a girl is about to cry was cute.

The movie does have some minor downsides. The film I thought goes into a tad too many examples of friends messing up which I think could have been avoided. Asking several people for opinion and hero frequently talking to audience might be good in a short film but too many such instances in a movie make it sound like a documentary on love at times. In the second half , the hero goes on a trip to Pondicherry with his friends which I feel been could have been made a bit more crisp.

The movie does not have a different story as such but it is a fresh presentation from a team of youngsters and is worth a watch.
