Engeyum Eppodhum

Awesome movie........thanks 4 d crew who made dis movie. The story says about love of 2 couples,and about road accidents. 1st half is full of fun n love & 2nd half shows d accident n tragedy at d end. i loved 2 c it again n again. its such a wonderful movie. Bouquet to débutant filmmaker Saravanan for etching out a film that speaks about feelings of people and the value of every single life. With handful of characters, the director has come out with a flick that is filled with fun, joy, tears and other human emotions.

What begins as a journey in a bus takes twists and turns, and when we think all is well that ends well, a shocking incident happens. But hold on! There is no preachy stuff as Saravanan manages to lace the message with lighter moments in the film. For many of us road mishaps mean just numbers - the number of people perished in such accidents. Rarely we get to see the colorful life the victims enjoyed without knowing that death is coming close to them.'Engeyum Eppothum' attempts to take a closer look at such people. In a nutshell, it is the story of two couples who end up romancing in contrasting manner. They happen to meet at one point where a tragedy strikes in their lives.

It's A R Murugadoss's maiden production venture. Fox Star Studios ventures to co-produce the same. With the likes of Jai, Anjali, sharwanand and Ananya in the cast, the movie has garnered a lot of attention. The movie is publicised as the journey of life.

Story is about two lover couples, their desire to get united in life. But what happens if a tragic incident plays spoilsport in their lives. A road accident involving two buses at a National Highway in Villupuram occurs. Meanwhile, a flashback unfolds and the romance between Goutham (Sharwanand) and Amudha (Ananya) and Kadhiresan (Jai) and Manimegalai (Anjali) is narrated.

A soft-spoken good-hearted Kadhiresan falls for a young nurse Manimegalai, who is opposite to his nature. She is out-spoken and practical in life. Amudha gets attracted to Goutham, who helps her in Chennai when is stranded in a bus stand unable to know where to go when she lands from Tiruchy for an interview. Kadhiresan and Manimekalai take a bus to go to go to their hometown, while Goutham also boards the same to see Amudha and open his heart. At the same time, Amudha takes the bus in the opposite to come and meet Goutham. What the buses collide is what the film is all about.

Performance: It is a tailor-made role for Sharwanand. The suave and stylish looks come handy for his character. Equally impressive as a chirpy innocent girl is Ananya. She continues from where she left in Nadodigal. Anjali as an out-spoken girl, who takes every step in her life with caution is equally impressive. She seems to be enjoying the good run in the industry, doing varied roles so early in her career. The real scene- stealer is Jai. As innocent young man in love with Anjali, he is impressive. He brings out the innocence in his character very well. There are a host of new faces in the film who bring freshness to the script.

Technicalities: If debutant filmmaker Saravanan is the captain of the ship, he has been ably supported by cinematographer velraj. He captures the contrasting lives in Chennai and rural areas well. The mishap scenes and thereafter are well shot by him. Equally supportive is Sathya with his musical score. Not just the songs, but also the background score adds pep to the whole proceedings. Kishore's editing is crisp and it makes the whole fare racy and riveting.

Analysis: All the characters are well-written. The narration keeps one engaged all through. One gets a feeling of travelling in the bus as the film progresses. The film is a mix of feel-good moments and at the same time emotional moments. Three cheers to Saravanan for making a crisp talked that is racy and riveting and at the same time carrying a strong message. My overall rating for the movie is 10.

Finally, another good movie after Eeram that shows perfection in nearly all fields.

Fox star company has co-produced this movie. & the director has done an excellent job.

Engeyum Eppodhum is a road trip revolving around two love couples. Most part movie is shot inside two buses which involve in a tragedy nearing the end. The movie also features beautifully portrayed Flashbacks, and good music. The 1st Half shows the love story between the two couples, and the Second Half of the movie shows a tragical Accident which occurs when the buses collide Head-on

Hats off to the team and A.R.Murugadoss for making this movie and setting a mark in Tamil cinema

First things first,since there is no provision for voting 9.5,i had no choice but this film definitely deserves it. The film starts with a terrible accident scene which is shown very creatively. This scene arises several questions as to what is in store. The Disjoint Narration shown is awesome. There are two main stories running parallel,but even their projection is beautiful. The Director must be given kudos for his brave effort in putting something original on screen without the fear of any repulsive response. The story is very well written and is very enthralling. The actors did a very fine job of absorbing the story and presenting their self on screen. Previously I have seen many good Tamil films but this one STANDS OUT. A must watch for any film lover who want a quality film. The Sound Effect is also very good,specially in the accident sequence. The Visual Effect is mesmerizing. Overall,a very good and strong story with good performances and above all A SUPERB DIRECTION. This is a film which has the capability of Winning Several International Awards if projected properly. WELL DONE M.Saravanan Sir.

In a nutshell, it is the story of two couples who end up romancing in contrasting manner. They happen to meet at one point where a tragedy strikes in their lives. Sarva as a suave city youth fits the bill well. His cool and casual expressions are adequate for the role. Ananya as an innocent bubbly rustic girl who comes to city is impressive. Anjali as a out-spoken and straightforward girl in love with Jai is tailor-made for the character. All the characters are well-written and neatly conceived by the director. They resemble close to real-life. The narration keeps one engaged all through. The contrasting love, loss, gain and sorrow are beautifully portrayed. R Velraj's cinematography and catchy background score of debutant Sathya add solidity to the proceedings. All said, 'Engeyum Eppothum' is a whiff of fresh air in Tamil cinema. Saravanan has certainly made his mentor A.R Murugadoss, who has produced this film along with Fox Star Studios, proud. Finally my rating for the movie is 10/10
