In simple terms, Kadhalil Vizhundhen is the compiled version of yesteryear Tamil flicks like 'Guna', '7 G Rainbow Colony', 'Kadhal Kondein' and more. What does the protagonists of these flicks posses in common? Their loved girl friend is either dead or imaginary characters take into life. Well, Director Prasad seems to have vividly influenced on these agendas and brims up with an unconvincing storyline. Fine! Even its target audiences as 'so-called young lover' may even feel go flimsy over watching this flick. Indeed, the story was impressive up to some extend and where does the Director go wrong? Absolutely, with the very worst style of executing the entire screenplay with lots of stunts, unwanted song sequences and clichés romantic attributes.
Nakul brims up with an extraordinary performance according to the perspectives of Tamil audiences. You know how do most of the film buffs of Kollywood mark one as a good person? Assign him on the role of psychotic character and make him howl and shout, do some gimmicks that has impact on young lads who are in deep love, win their applause and that's it. So, Nakul accomplishes on all these ascribes. Debutant Sunaina fleets with a commendable performance and doesn't get herself as a newcomer. Sampath steals the show as a high-tempered person in the first half while landing on more emotional grounds in the latter part.
The tale of Kadhalil Vizhundhen goes this way…
Saba (Nakul) pushes Meera (Sunaina) on the wheel chair running fast across and gets into a train. A ticket collector (Livingstone) catches hold of him and asks for tickets. Well, he convinces him saying that both of them are lovers running for their lives as family members are chasing them. Then, begins the flashback of how both Saba and Meera met over an accident for the first time and about how she saved his life. Both of them get into good relationship leading to love. Things go on well, until Saba leaves out to Ooty for a district level football match. On getting back to Chennai, his friends reveal that Meera has lasted her breath and immediately rushes to hospital finding that her family members are woe-stricken with her demise. As her body is taken into morgue, Saba rushes to it and finds that her heart is beating. Neither doctors nor her family members believe that she is alive, but he does. Assuming that everyone is trying to separate them, he tries to move away with her and that's where the film begins…
Fine! The story looks clichéd, isn't? But that's until you get to know whether Meera is really alive or Saba is travelling with her dead body…
The story looks quite impressive as few of the versatile auteurs have tried these theme very before. But, director Prasath fails to accomplish his tasks in answering to the situations and audiences have to move out of the theatres in perplexed moods. If he had fulfilled those quotients and had revealed the suspense, not at the start of second half, but at the climax, then it would have won more accolades.
Vijay Antony's background score adds more life to the fast-racy action packed as well romantic sequences and even in songs. But why director has to insert so many songs that decelerates the pulse of audiences. Two versions of 'Naakka Mukka' have been visualized well, but that doesn't relate with the film in any way. It's an emotional film and less number of songs would have been better.
On the whole, Kadhalil Vizhundhen is a flick that would attract those youngsters fallen in love and it has nothing more to claim critical acclamations. If director had worked properly on the screenplay and avoiding those negative aspects mentioned here, Kadhalil Vizhundhen would have been an engrossing endeavor for all of us…
Verdict: Not bad…
