"Engeyum Eppodhum" review. - A must watch!


Is a movie from a debutant director M Saravanan and produced by A R Murugadoss and Fox Star Studios India.

The movie conveys a strong yet simple message “Speed kills” and deals with the value of life.

As for the story, it is kept simple:  two separate romantic tales, one set in Chennai, the other in Tiruchy, intersect at one point, and then some heart touching scenes which people working abroad can relate to, especially from the Middle East.

Clever story writing, simple dialogues, powerful and engaging acting and sound effects make this movie a must watch.

The two main stories First being between Ananya and Sharvanand, set against the back drop of Chennai is very refreshing with some subtle emotions.

The next story is just a contrast to the first one. Jai and Anjali (Angadi theru fame) is set against the back drop of Trichy. This story is very well shaped. The love-track easily becomes the more interesting of the two, as the "lovers" progress through a most intriguing form of courtship.

While Ananya, Sharvanand and Jai have all done well, it's Anjali who clearly walks away with the honors. She plays the role of a Nurse who is aggressive and she practically leads her lover (Jai) by the nose, but the extent of her feelings emerges only at the end, and carries you away.

Another noteworthy performance from Anjali…

Music of the film is engaging and blends well with the movie. The special effects sounds and back ground score form a key part in this movie.

This movie too has its minus sides --  too much focus on the bus as the movie starts breaks the suspense and felt a bit dragging, a few dialogues seem quite out of place and context the scenes but the overall product is what matters and the director has achieved this.

Engeyum Eppodhum is a genuinely heart-warming story, not just about romance, but about the fabric of life itself.
