It has emotions and drama to attract family audience and at the same time enough ingredients to enthrall youngsters.
A remake of Telugu hit ‘Chandamama’ it is a clean and feel-good family entertainer. Director Sabapathy Dakshinamurthy deserves all credits for retaining the essence of the original making suitable changes for Tamil audience. With the right mix of experience and youth in the star cast, the movie proceeds on a right note with no hitches anywhere. The likes of veteran artistes Prabhu, Manorama and V M C Haneefa lends solidity to the characters they play while the young brigadiers comprising of Aravindh, Navdeep, Monica and Saranya Mohan oozes with right energy.
Vedachalam (Nagababu) is a do-gooder, who is rich and influential in his village. For him, his daughter Anitha (Monica) is everything. Anitha, who completed a fashion-designing course in Chennai, comes back to the village. Soon, elders in the family get her arranged with a local boy Ilango (Aravindh). He is an educated farmer and a gentleman, who is innocent and always ready to help others. When things proceed on a happy note, Anitha narrates a flashback to Illango which creates panic in him.
She has a lover called Akash (Navdeep) in Chennai. He is a fashion-freak, who is mischievous and loves to play pranks on others. Anitha believes that he has cheated her. But, the story takes a turn when Ilango decides to unite Anitha and Akash. Meanwhile, Eswari (Saranya Mohan), Anitha’s sister falls for Ilango’s innocence. How the couples get united forms the crux.
The director has narrated the sequence of events in a hilarious manner. Srinivasan’s dialogues are the major highlight. While Aravindh has utilized the opportunity coming out with a subdued but strong performance, Navdeep as a callous young man dazzles the screen. His body language and dialogue delivery fits the role like T. His onscreen chemistry with Monica is good.
Saranya Mohan, combines good looks and performance. She plays the role of a naughty young rural belle with perfection. Monica finally gets an opportunity to showcase her histrionics. She has ample opportunity to prove it which she had put use to. V M C Haneefa brings the roof down with his humor. As Ilango’s father, he carries it off convincingly. Manorama (as Ilango’s grand mother) has lived up to her reputation.
However, the real scene-stealer is Prabhu. He dons a dignified role that commands respect all through the flick. He brings out the travails of fathers who miss their daughters after their wedding. The rest of the cast including Kanja Karuppu, Livingston, Sathyan, Satheesh, Vasu Vikram play their part well.
Arul Dass’ cinematography is worth mentioning. He captures song sequences well providing a visual treat to our eyes. Vijay Antony’s songs remind us of his earlier tunes yet are good to listen.
If you can forgive thee first ten minutes of the movie, ‘A AA E EE’ is worth a watch. A florid bouquet can be given to Sabhapathy, for his guts to make a movie sans any hero worship or vulgar comedies.
This romantic comedy is a remake of the Telegu film, Chandamama.
Subramaniam, (Prabhu) an Ayurvedic physician is a much respected man in his village. His only daughter Anita (Monica) returns home from Chennai after completing a course in fashion designing. Having lost her mother at a very young age, Anita is close to her father and they share a special bond. Soon Anita’s marriage is fixed with Ilango (Arvind), son of Vedachalam, (Haneefa).
While Vedachalam is a good for nothing, his son is a perfect match. Illango falls in love with Anita. But Anita tells him of her past, about her lover Akash, (Navdeep) who had jilted her after a one night stand. Illango, though shattered meets Akash and tries to unite him with Anita.
And in this attempt, he finds himself falling in love with Anita’s cousin, Eshwari (Saranya Mohan). Now the story is about uniting the two pairs of lovers. And Anita does not want to hurt her father with the knowledge of her past.
Set in a rustic background, the film entertains with its moments of comedy, slapstick albeit. And it talks about a young daughter who is willing to sacrifice her love so that her father is not disappointed, a trait not that often seen in today’s films.
Prabhu as the father is good. Manorama as Illango’s grandmother is at her usual best. Haneefa in his colourful outfits keeps the audience chuckling with his dialogues. While Arvind and Monica are adequate, it is Saranya Mohan who impresses with her acting. Navdeep makes a mark too.
The songs are good. Good camera work with stunning visuals showing nature at her best.
There are moments when the film sags, but if you have a penchant for clean family drama, this one could be straight up your alley.
