Saba Nayagan

Seems like this movie should have been released 20 years back. Story is not great! Don't know how it got this huge score in IMDB. Too boring 😔.jokes and scenes were very predictable and highly used in tamil cinemas for long years. Casting seems flashy . But they didn't meet the expectations.

Saw it after few sneak peek and IMDB(7.6). It was a huge disappointment to all. I know , I am not a director and if you ask me to make a movie I can't make one. But as a viewer , I don't want other movie viewers to be disappointed with more expectations with the misleading IMDB score. Kindly keep your expectations low with the the movie.

Rom-coms in any language are a light watch, and thus, this seemed like a good choice, especially since Ashok Selvan mostly delivers good movies. But boy, I didn't know I was about to be proven wrong.

Saba narrates his love life from his school days to the present to appease the police officers after being arrested for causing a nuisance in a public place.

The story takes you through various stages of Saba's love life-how he fell in and out of love each time. But despite multiple love angles, none are interesting or unique enough to stick with you. If an emotional route wasn't the goal, the film could have at least been funny, but it fails there too. The entire movie meanders toward nothing, and the suspense factor introduced at the end makes no sense, leaving you even more disappointed.

The saving grace is Ashok Selvan, who delivers a solid performance and keeps your interest, but even he can't salvage a shallow script like this. A series of good-looking actresses have been cast, and while they are all decent, none leave a lasting impression.

The jokes land in places but, overall, feel bland. The songs are hummable yet forgettable-nothing that would make it to your playlist. The cinematography is a plus, keeping the movie light and breezy to watch.

You're definitely not recommended to watch this one, even if you're an Ashok Selvan fan. Save your time and energy by skipping it.

"Love Struck" takes audiences on a delightful trip down memory lane, reminiscent of those cherished college days filled with innocent love and laughter. Ashok Selvan shines brilliantly, delivering a heartfelt performance that tugs at the heartstrings. The chemistry among the characters is palpable, thanks to the well-written script and stellar casting. Special mention goes to the supporting cast (Friends) whose sparkling humor keeps the audience engaged from start to finish. Kudos to the director for his adept handling of both writing and screenplay, making "Love Struck" a must-watch for romcom enthusiasts.

Why more people aren't talking about this film, I don't know. Underrated, IMO. Don't watch the trailer if you haven't. I went into this film with no prior idea of what this was about, and about half way through, I thought "there's nothing new in this film, but it's really enjoyable". Boy was I wrong...about the first part, which we'll get to.

I'm not a fan of the RomCom genre but I thought Thiruchitrambalam was a fun movie. Most romance movies are sappy or too commercial, hardly relatable. This, however, you have (or somebody you know has) lived through about 90% of plot of this film. It will take you on a nostalgia trip (not the easy-way-out kind) like most movies haven't in a long time.

The cinematography deserves a special mention, not for showing scenic locations well, but for showing certain characters a certain way that you can hear your childhood friend go "Kavithai da. Kavithai!" I didn't care for the songs in Thiru'balam, and I didn't care for the ones in this film either. Regardless of how old the plot is it was FUN! Relatable, humorous. And then, the part that I DID NOT except.

One of Ashok Selvan's best works. What a 2023/24 he's had! Everybody else was great at what they were given.

What I saw in this film, I have NOT seen in any other film before. Mindblowing? No. But maaaybe, yes? That last part changed how I viewed the entire movie. Credit to the writing team. How wrong was I about the "There's nothing new in this film" part!? XD But hey, glad to be wrong this time.

Don't miss out on this one. Hardly anybody is talking about it, I don't know why. 90's bois, you'll LOVE it.

1. No need to FF any song sequence, they are all decent enough to watch with family 2. No super hero type hero character, but just normal average like many of us 3. No overload of alcohol or tobacco scenes 4. No item song sequences 5. Decent BGM, Screen play, dialogues 6. Most importantly No overload of punches, social messages 7. No super hero stunts, except one, bearable 8. Ashok Selvan's performance is very good 9. No flaws in story telling, direction 10. Actors that performed friends have done well 11. Katthika's performance decent

A good decent romcom that will make you feel being part of a normal decent world.
