‘Moondru
Per Moondru Kadhal’ a film you don’t fall in love with
As the name suggests this is a story of three couples in love.
The first story is about Varun, a chartered accountant who falls in love with Anjana, another chartered accountant joining his father’s firm. But Anjana is in love with someone else and engaged to him.
The second story is about Guna, a Cambridge educated young man who quit a lucrative career to start an NGO for the rehabilitation of ex-convicts. Mallika, daughter of a poor fisherman and a trained physiotherapist is in love with Guna, who sponsors her brother’s education.
The third pair of love birds is Harris, a swimming coach and Divya, his protégé.
What connects the three stories is a book written by Varun.
The film opens with the launch of this book and moves back and forth between the three stories.
Sadly, the film disappoints. Fans of Vasanth had greater expectations from this director who has known for his penchant for the unusual and the poignant.
The slow pace of the narration hampered by poor characterization does not hold the attention of viewers. Somehow ‘the love’ fails to come through the stories despite having a formidable cast in Vimal, Cheran and Arjun.
New comer Lasini merely delivered her lines. Muktha Bhanu's performance was average. Surveen Chawla, who resembles Ashwariya in some scenes, has put in effort to bring out her character and although she shares good onscreen chemistry with Arjun, their love tale does not move you.
Yuvan Shankar Raja’s music is the saving grace of the film. Ritvik Varun who makes his debut through a song sequence needs to work hard on his dance movements as well as his expressions.
Bhojan K.Dinesh camerawork is another plus for this film. Otherwise ‘Moondru Per Moondru Kadhal,’ is a let- down.
