Anbe Aaruyire Tamil Movie
Ah Aah (Anbae Aaruyirae) is a vibrant study of eternal love. But the story is not anything out of the ordinary, subscribing to the familiar "Local lad in romantic entanglement" tale that has colored many Tamil movies. What makes it standout, however, is that the presentation of the outmoded subject.
Without deviating from his track record, director S.J. Surya has sprinkled vulgar sexual innuendoes and mild expletives liberally through out the film. But this does not come as a surprise, as all his movies have his stamp of profanity. Censor board has taken a hard stand and has cut many dialogues having sleazy connotations, causing disappointment among the Surya's fans.
Surya plays Siva, an investigative journalist working for newspaper and has a live-in relationship with Madhu (Nila) - a rich damsel who has eloped with him for the sake of love.
Madhu simply cannot tolerate Siva's commitment to his career. She creates havoc whenever Siva does not keep up his commitment to her.
Realizing Siva's relentless drive to support the family, Madhu starts a restaurant business in partnership with Kishore, her friend's brother. Shiva is shocked when he learns about
Madhu's plans, and turns a doubting Joe. Soon, when their misconstrued opinion against each other blows out of proportion, their relationship breaks, and both part ways vowing to put their past behind.
In the second half, the complexion of the story changes. Memories of Siva and Madhu turn out as surreal characters played by Surya and Nila themselves. These imaginary characters work out hard to bring them together and forge a familial bond. How these in-tangible characters reunite the couple forms the remaining part of the story.
Along the way, Surya makes some interesting observations about relationships in general.
"Love should be as strong as that of a mother's affection", "One should live a life of what one got and what one wants." These scenes really work.
Surya and Nila emerge intact. Nila because her performance through out the flick is beyond what is expected out of a debutant actress. As an actor, Surya has improved a lot from his previous performance in "New". His racy style and good dance movements are good to watch. However his dialogue delivery and facial expressions needs to be well honed.
As a writer-director Surya is able to convey his story at a grass root level, far more convincingly, this in turn makes it a great deal more enjoyable to watch.
Added to the kinetic moments, is exceptional well-chosen sound track from AR. Rahman. His hardcore rendition "Maramkothiye..." song with graphics is innovative while the title song sung by him is appealing.
M.N.Nambiar and Urvashi make guest appearance, while Santhanabharathy plays the villain. Comedian Santhanam provides humor, which mostly crass and vulgar.
Even though the end result is not nearly as polished as most, its certainly more real and honest endeavor. Overall, Ah Aah is worth seeing for it is intelligent, original and hugely entertaining. But, parents have to keep check on their wards, as this flick is packed with adult humor.
