Sillunnu Oru Kadhal Tamil Movie
Here is another romantic story with the hit pair Surya and Jyothika.
The story goes like this...
Kundavi (Jyothika) right from childhood has been brought up in a small village called Ambasamudram. She has two good friends right from school and one day both of her friends got married and left. Kundavi's father then fixes up her marriage with Goutham (Surya). Both look gloomy and dull during the wedding.
Then the scene drifts to a period after six years in Bombay where they have 5 year old girl child and lives as a happily married couple.
Goutham works is a chief mechanic and he designs a new function for the car and he gets to go to New York for a short period. During this time, Jyothika somehow catches hold of Goutham's old diary during his college days and the story goes back showing Goutham as a college wiz kid.
In college, he gets attracted to Aishu (Bhoomika Chawla), a local MLA's daughter. Gautham and Aishu fall in love and they decided to get married. At the registrar's office after Gautham ties the thali, Aishu's father and his men beat him up and takes Aishu away.
From flashback, the scene now turns to the present as Goutham comes back from New York and finds his wife changed. She works late and avoids him. At this point, Kundavi goes and finds out Gautham's lost love Aishu. Aishu has changed to a western clad modern girl in contrast to the salwar kameez girl in college.
Kundavi tells Aishu to come over to her house and she tells her husband that he should live happily with Aishu for a day. Half heartedly though, Kundavi leaves her husband and goes. What happens in this one day forms the rest of the story.
As far as the performance is concerned, Surya has done an amazing job and so are Jyothika and Bhoomika. There is good chemistry between Surya and Jyothika in the movie.
The direction has some flaws and the movie is disjointed in many ways, the initial pace of the movie tends to drag a bit too much later. There are a few light moments where Santhanam handles the comedy well. The second half of the movie is packed with emotions.
Overall, the movie is not really the way it was expected to be with all the hype it was getting. The music score from Rehman is really good and makes the movie worth watching for its songs.
