Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa is a 2010 Tamil romantic drama musical film directed and written by Gautham Vasudev Menon, featuring Silambarasan and Trisha Krishnan in the lead roles.
Debut director and producer SPTA Kumar has made the film 'Munnodi' with the cast and crew filled with newcomers and less known faces . The film aspires to be an action based commercial thriller with a message and lets see how it has come out.
Sathya (Harish) loses his father during childhood. His mother (Sithara) takes extra care towards his younger brother Aravind who suffers from a peculiar heart disease and needs the keen attention of his mother. This alienates Sathya who starts hating his mom and brother.
Harish grows up as a spoilt brat and becomes a close accomplice of a powerful political don Mandhiramoorthy (Arjuna). Mandhiram's brother in law Jeya (Paavel Navageethan) hates Sathya due to Mandhiram treating Sathya like his own brother.
The local DCP and Encounter specialist Soundarapandian (Sijoy Varghese) decides to finish off Mandhiram and his gang and he keeps waiting for the right time.
Meanwhile, Sathya while pursuing his love for Denuka (Yamini), a classmate of Aravind, understands his brother's unconditional affection towards him. That refines Sathya and he decides to relieve himself from Mandhiram and lead a peaceful life as a good son to his mother.
Could he do that? The rest of the film answers this question.
