Who is in it?
Interestingly the film doesn't have too many characters. Engeyum Kaadhal mainly revolves around the lead pair Jayam Ravi and Hansika Motwani.
The film is about a hard working, stylish young industrialist Kamal (Jayam Ravi) who goes on a month long vacation to Paris every year.
Then we have the bubbly Kayal (Hansika), a Indian girl brought up in France.
And finally we have Rajasekhar (Suman) Kayal's father who runs a detective agency.
THE PLOT
Kamal, a young billionaire, doesn't believe in love and his philosophy is simple - No love, no commitments is equal to no disappointments. He works hard for the entire year and takes break for a month from all the work related commitments. Then we have the cute violinist Kayalvizhi alias Kayal who believes in true love, she is highly fascinated with Indian culture. Kayal's father Rajasekhar runs a small detective agency in France and Kayal often reads her father's case books for interesting stories.
One day Rajasekhar gets a new client (Sonu Gates) who wants to know about his girlfriend's mystery man. After a brief investigation Rajasekhar finds out that his client's girl friend is currently dating Kamal. Sonu gets angry and decides to kill his girlfriend and Kamal. Kayal overhears the conversation and decides to save them, she rushes to their hotel. Their she bumps into Ka`mal and it's love at first sight for her. After few initial encounters, Kayal finds out that Kamal doesn't believe in love but she still tries to impress him. After a month Kamal leaves France and Kayal is heart broken.
Days passes by, after almost an year they meet again in Paris. But this time Kayal has new plans for Kamal! Watch out Engeyum Kaadhal for more!
Caution: A dramatic climax awaits you!
THE PERFORMANCE
Jayam Ravi has lost weight and looks stylish on screen. Known for his chocolate boy image, he excels in this romantic entertainer. Engeyum Kaadhal is definitely his cup of tea. Teenage sensation Hansika Motwani is perfect for the role. However she has to learn the language to get the lip sync right. Kudos to her dubbing artist for delivering the dialogues perfectly. Suman as Hansika's father is perfect on screen and as usual his experience speaks. Raju Sundaram provides the much needed comedy factor and he succeeds. His slapstick comedy act in few scenes is hilarious. Prakashraj appear in a blink and miss cameo which was an unwanted intrusion.
THE TECHNIQUES
First, Engeyum Kaadhal breaks the regular jinx of a boy falling for the girl, in this film, it is the other way round. Right from the start of the film, Prabhu Deva assured his fans that the film will be a feel entertainer and he delivers. A perfect first half, an emotional second half with a dramatic climax, that is Engeyum Kaadhal for you. Cinematographer Nirav Shah is the true star of this film, his lens has captured the true beauty of Paris perfectly. Anthony's sleek editing and Nagu's prefect art works needs special mention. Harris Jayaraj's music, which is already topping the charts, has been picturised well. However certain tunes reminds us some of his earlier compositions. Kudos to the costume designer for the brilliant colour combinations (especially for Hansika).
THE VERDICT
Overall, Prabhu Deva's Engeyum Kaadhal is a cool breezy entertainer perfect for this hot summers. It's love every where!
