Finally, one among the film celebrities have decided to remake the yesteryear super hit Murattukaalai. Chief Minister M.Karunanidhi’s grandson and son of Amirtham Gunanidhi has decided to produce the remake of Murattukaali that featured Rajnikanth in lead role. Sundar C is expected to perform the lead role while Suman will appear as baddie on the role of Jai Shankar and Surali Rajan’s role would be played by Vivek adding to the humor part.

The original version was produced by AVM Productions with SP Muthuraman directing it. This film has one such special mention since it won the credits of Superstar for Rajnikanth. The remake directed by Selva Bharathy will have shooting commencing in a short period of time and probably is slated to hit the screens for 14th April, 2009.

Be the reviews that we have marked on Kadhalil Vizhundhen as a movie not to watch, but what’s actually happening in Madurai takes us more disappointing with the Tamil Nadu State Government. The film’s director yesterday before the preview screening, addressed the media channels that it’s a good deed on those who are not allowing to release his film in Madurai. Since, the film has been released by Sun Pictures, few rowdies in the name of Azhagiri did break the theatres down where the film Kadhalil Vizhundhen was supposed to release. Director Prasath speaking on this says that day and night just not him alone, but the entire team strived to complete the film so successfully and after lots of problematic situations, they released the film. And now, its not convincing to see that those rowdies are creating such kind of problems.

He has requested State’s Chief Minister to answer to the situation putting forth the question whether Madurai has been alienated from Tamil Nadu and isn’t he ruling that district too. However, he has assured that if Chief Minister is not going to take any action against them, he would call for the occasion where the entire film industry would fast and protest till the film is released in the city.

Alas! How long will everyone portray their hero so psychotic? If the hero is turning out to possess these ascribes because of love, then the director should have shown the impact of how both young lad and missy were in love. Long lengthy sequences and unwanted songs, again long duration of chases and fights makes its more pathetic. Kadhalil Vizhundhen possesses a story with finesse that has been already viewed in Selvaraghavan’s 7G Rainbow Colony where the protagonist speaks to his dead girlfriend feeling that she is alive yet. The film travels on the same sort of storyline and its dashing your hopes as it has lots of loopholes and ridiculous features.

The film opens with Nakul rushing with his girlfriend Sunaina on wheel chair and many people chasing to trap them. The girl is unconscious and Nakul carries her into the train where he meets a ticket collector (Livingstone). He starts taking a trip down the memory lane of how both the couple met their love story and gradually the opposition from the family members. The shocking part there is when Nakul narrates Livingstone that on his return to Chennai from Ooty for a match, his friends and Sunaina’s family members cheated him saying that the girl is dead. Well, the scenes as it move shows that Nakul who rushes to Hospital finds that his girlfriend is laid dying in the morgue. Everyone including the family members and doctors believe that the girl is dead. But Nakul doesn’t do so as he feels her heartbeat. With no one believing his statement, Nakul rushes out along with girl that no one can separate them.

But is the girl he loves is really alive or is he travelling with her dead body, with hallucinations of Sunaina breathing her life forms crux of the story…

Wow! You may wonder what a peculiar story it is and we too did the same. But the nastiest part of unwanted stuffs and till the last moment not revealing the finest suspense lets down our hopes. Nakul does justice to his role in all situations of romance, comedy and emotions. Believe us, if he is offered with a role of brisk action packed hero, he will churn the best out of him. With her simple naturalistic looks, Sunaina convinces us and Sampath steals the show.

But, again the same old ridiculous love dialogues and other stuffs makes even the young lovers who are supposed to be the target audiences walk out of the theatres.

Songs are fine and good with both the versions of Naaka Mukka grabbing the attention. But is the song in second half really necessary. Fine! This is not a jolly going film and song like Naaka Mukka doesn’t go along with it. Perhaps, it had done a fine job with the promotional activities of Sun TV.

On the whole, Kadhalil Vizhunden despites carrying a good story fail to convince us and thus loses out the best credits.

Bottom – Line: falling into pits of disappointments

Verdict: Goes unimpressive…

Kadhalil Vizhuthen – Clichéd but different
