The climax was beyond my comprehension the first time I saw it. The second half stretches and becomes a drag. This is more like it and finally some spunkiness is being shown by the lead characters. The momentous scene is at the proposed wedding where Trisha runs away at the last moment (reminded me of Nancy in Raja Paarvai) and then even meets Simbu. We wait for the dénouement – unfortunately it never comes. We have seen all this before so many times and can see where the story is headed now. By mid-way all the familiar devices have kicked in – Simbu has fought and beaten Trisha’s brother ( our hero just has to do this one-act of lunacy to prove that he is macho), there is extreme parental opposition to the match from Trisha’s family and the resolution is an urgently arranged marriage for her. Scenes of Kerala backwaters are lovely and enthralling. VTV Ganesh in his comic act and as a foil to Simbu is a discovery. The courtship scenes are picture perfect and a novel approach to standard situational scenes is rather refreshing. Simbu is foot loose and fanciful as his dream seems unrealistic to everyone. Trisha is well sorted – a modern girl who seems to be doing well professionally and has great regard for her family. We meet Simbu, an aspiring film director, who falls for Trisha at first sight. The first half is so engaging that what follows can be regarded to be a sad disappointment. The production values are always tops when Gautham Menon helms a film. And it was a slick product as well – cinematography, music, romance and the comic track all seem to be in place. VTV promos were great and catchy – the absence of any details about the cast and crew and their release being timed around the Valentine Day gave great salience to the product in the mind of its youthful audience. That this is regarded to be a pragmatic approach and lauded indirectly is to my mind, a reflection of the cold-hearted calculations that have replaced ones emotions. She is forever caught in two minds and the so-called ‘love’ is just an episode in her life that she manages well without having to stake her future. VTV is a classy movie but the vital soul is missing – there is no real spunkiness shown by the pair particularly the heroine. Trisha and Simbu in Gautham Menon’s VTV Image Courtesy – Mostly the star-crossed lovers rebel for a lost cause and the movies have tragic endings. I guess the cult movie for my generation was K Balachander’s ‘Ek Duje Ke Liye’. Inter-religious love stories in Tamil cinema are a mixed bag. Bharathirajaa gave us a youthful and carefree outing in ‘Alaigal Oivathillai’ while Raja Paarvai had an equally spunky Nancy who falls for a blind violinist Ragu.
