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

This is one of the greatest movie from Tamilnadu and the new debut director Saravanan made a fantastic work. Actor all done there role that what ever they want to give. Cinematography is excellent Songs and background music are colorful and have good remembrance. From the movie starts at the cleaning of the buses, story of the movies travels with the bus that happen before the that particular days. A small love story the bus and that boy feels too much after she die in the accident its heart touching. and the couple man don't want to leave his wife she traveled with her and finally died in the accident all people who inspired in the movie will give some tears.
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.
This was a brilliant movie. It contained all the works to turn it into one. The director has done an amazing job and it's a wonderful debut for him.
The actors were perfect for their roles and they represented their characters beautifully. The music was a treat for your ears and were in tune with the movie. I heard that the director hadn't used any movie sets for the film, everything has been shot in real locations. The effort that he has taken really shines through the screen. The story line was refreshingly different and will keep you engaged for the whole length of the movie. A great movie will stay on your mind for quite a while after you watch it- and this one definitely stayed on mine! This is a film truly worth spending two hours on.
