Vaaranam Aayiram (The Strength Of A Thousand Elephants):
You Will Wait For the Last Elephant. LoL!

"Gautam Vasudev Menon’s Vaaranam Ayiram is intended to be a biography of an ordinary man. What could have been a subtly told story turns into a sloppy fare with way too much of daddy-glorification and emotional I-love-you-and-I-see-you-in-everything-dialogues. However, this memoirs-of-my-dad would have been a wonderful watch if it did not adopt a schmaltzy narrative often, more often than you think actually, interrupted with songs." this is the truth!

Well, its a Musical and Family base movie... Of cause got LOVE also

When we say its a musical movie.. the credits automatically goes to Harris Jeyaraj! Of cause he have done
a marvelous job. The songs are hit and still in our ears. Especially, Adiyey (the electric guitar sound), Nenjekul, mundhinam and anjale song...

When we say this movie is a family base, the credits goes to the director first... and then the father character (surya@krishna), wow what a body language he applied in this movie! Well Done and Good Job! And then only the Son Character (surya@surya) with his six packs and his love-romantic emotion...still he is the man who won the hearts of the girls. About Surya nothing much to say, He has done a good job... he will rule the tamil industry, no doubt!

Simran comes a close second with her puffed eyes and refined articulation of emotions announcing that she is ageing gracefully. Sameera has a constant grin, which is adorable. But all she could come up with after seeing her stalker at her doorsteps in the US is a surprised expression after getting a scoop of her favorite ice cream unexpectedly. Surya – Sameera’s first meet in the train is well conceived and executed. Divya, however, is in her quietest form oozing loads of sophisticated attitude.

N othing wrong if i said that, this movie have some message for people who are not responsible for their country and their family! For example, about the smokers and the impact of smoking cigarettes, study and work in our own country, monitor your kids movements, listen to parents when they advise you... and still got more, when you guys watch the movie, you will know it.

However, i feel this movie drag the stories and kinda slow... its three hour long movie. Of cause people will have a high expectation of Gautham-Surya combination... Well i feel this one would be the different from the khaka-khaka movie. NO HIGH BEAT-ONLY HEART BEAT!

My Rank for this movie is: 3/5 With Love and Emotions!And Only For Surya And Harris Jeyaraj!
