Unlike all other movies really this movie is too different.
Director nalankantan was superb
Unexpected things from Director:
1. The extraordinary story he wrote and the its not look like written story with hand and its look like real time story written from heart
2. Screenplay of the movie was awesome.
3. Dialogs was superb
Unexpected things from Actors:
1. I don't want to say vijay sethupati and madona as hero and heroine because they never shown the stardom.
2. They shown their acting skill 100% in this movie
After making a black comedy film like Soodhu Kavvum the only thing you expect from Nalan is another laughter riot like the previous one and both Nalan and the producer clearly knows this. If you are expecting it to be a laughter riot, no it is not.
Thinking in the way how a modern girl falling in love with a local goon has become such a clinch in our kollywood industry, The film the way it is taken (especially the climax) makes total sense. Maybe this one is Nalan's stereotype in proving it right.
Yes the film is inspired from 'my dear desperado' but the way how Nalan makes this film in our chennai style adding engineering unemployment to the background you after to thank Nalan for it. The film could have been easily turned into an non sensible laughter riot but Nalan's light heated sense and making makes this love lovable with right amount of cute laughable scenes.
Thank you Nalan Kumarasamy and CV Kumar for this film. With Nalan and Karthik Subbaraj our future of kollywood is in safe hands.

The plot is so simple. Nalan style of Narration is different. He Executes his skills in writing. The dialogues arengood with humour touch. Vijay Sethupathi is always Good. But there is no scope for his range of performance. Madona looks beauty and childish. Her best Performance comes at Pre interval sequences. Climax is but lengthy but ok. Songs are good. Locations are apt. Watch it for humour .Neat Comedy.
Screenplay may be slow.. But interesting movie..
Mostly can related with real life story.. We also get into the movie easily..
Kadhalum Kadanthu Pogum (2016): Vijay Sethupathi,Madonna Sebastian playing lead roles.Directed by Soodhu Kavvum fame Nalan Kumaraswamy.Produced by my favorite person C.V.Kumar and music by brilliant Santhosh Narayan.Any movie lover does not wish more than this.Such most talented people joined for this best entertainer Kadhalum Kadanthu Pogum.So how is it??
Plot: Inspired by 2010 Korean movie My Dear Desperado,KaKaPo deals with two unlikely people. Kathir (Vijay Sethupathi) who is a wannabe rowdy, whose only aim is to run a bar on his own. He is just back from five years of prison life and it was for his area councilor, who promised him to provide a posh life. Then, we have Yalini (Madonna Sebastian) who loses her IT job during recession and due to financial crisis, she stays in the small flat opposite Kathir. The rest of the film is all about how these two people with drastically different dreams gel with ease and develop a liking for each other.
Plus Points: 1)Screenplay and Direction: Screenplay is entertaining at its best.It has lot of laugh out loud moments and also cute feel good moments.There is not even a dingle boring scene in this entire movie.Few scenes are remarkable and really makes us to watch it again and again.Last half and hour is truly one of the best moments in recent times. Nalan Kumaraswamy really is such brilliant director.Even if this is a remake he showed his own mark of dark comedy.
2)Performances: Performances are major asset to movie.Vijay Sethupathi is one of the rare actors who redefines the meaning of so called unbeatable hero.He can play underplayed roles with so much ease.He truly is a gem.Madonna Sebastian is so cute and came up with brilliant performance.I started loving her more after this movie.Others also played their roles without flaws.
3)Music: Santhosh Narayan came up with amazing music.Both his songs and BGM are awesome.BGM really helped a lot for carrying movie's feel.KaKaKaPo song is best song of the album.
So Kadhalum Kadanthu Pogum is best entertaining movie of 2016 with brilliant performances,entertaining screenplay,topnotch direction and amazing music.
My rating 8/10
