Aruvi

Some say if you can laugh/smile and cry at the same time, you might be mentally disturbed or challenged. I was one for 133 minutes movie. A story that made me glued to my seat without nail biting action or thrilling scene, a tremendous performance and body language from a new face actress that made me felt im living in her shoes, a fantastic storyline that you can hardly tell its from a debutant director, dark comedies that can make you laugh and provoke your thoughts during serious scenes. Music and BGM was just too good, it soothes when it need to sooth, it hurts when you made to cry for the performance. Even when alaipaayuthey introduced maddy as new face, I was not able to accept the chocolate boy then, yaareda ivan nu appo feel pannuchi. But inthe movie leh almost every faces are new but everyone made me feel as if all are seasoned actor and actresses. Big kudos to director @Arun Prabu Purushothaman and team and much love for Aditi Balan for the spectacular performance. Aruvi, IS THE NAME OF THE MOVIE I WAS TALKING ABOUT.

This is a movie that everyone must and should watch, I would say one of the best in the year 2017, and my comparison is not only with other Tamil movies. The director has literally shaken the stereotype of movies where plot lines are black and white, good beats evil, etc. The director has very skilfully, and at the same time very artfully portrayed a snapshot of life, with all the associated greys in between. It's hard to say if this movie is a comedy or a tragedy or a celebration, but then again, isn't life just the same?

Special mention to the cast, especially the lead actress Aditi Balan. Very rarely do we come across such talent in a debutant actress. I would say she has lived the role rather than simply performing it during the movie. Her subtle moves and gestures throughout the film have not gaudy element nor a bit of overacting. It is every bit as real as watching a real life event unfold in front of our eyes.

Don't miss this movie. The director has managed to convey a very important social message in an elegant and simple manner. I won't say what it is, lest it spoil the suspense of the movie for you.

ARUVI A lifetime experience. A stirring poetry of comfort and conflict . Movie carefully but consistently travels between the montage and narrative movie patterns complimented by a strong non-linear screenplay. Movie heads to a climax of profound human connectedness but with a profound agony.

A Must watch.

Aruvi will leave a deep impact on its viewers. It may leave an impression, or nostalgia or a scar based on what kinda of a person you are. But this movie is not going to go way without making a mark in everyone's mind. Gift from a new kid in the block(Arun), to remind the world, TAMIL cinema is much ahead of "so called" progressive cinema in the spectrum of international film fraternity.

I don't dislike this movie and at the same time I dont think it is a path breaking experience and questions society as I have seen in some reviews.Though it is high on emotions,the ratings,and the beginning 20 mins are highly misleading.Heck even the storyline present in imdb is misleading.The protagonist as said in that storyline does not take hard on people instead she is amicable and playful which is a huge let down for me because I was misled by its ratings and initial 20 minutes.I wanted her to be rebellious and question the perception of majority.The movie doesn't put forward a moral and critical question but instead gives a lament message which it does very well indeed.I don't know why people think otherwise and say that their perception is changed.If this movie came 10-15 years before I may have agreed with that statement.Because if you had a contradicting perception before I don't know how do you fit in 21st century.Is this movie a new attempt and is never tried before?Yes but isn't as courageous as I have expected.Now coming to the positives the emotional thread of protagonist is well executed and the actress who did it is amazing.I don't want to spoil too much but the life of lead character is shown very well with little diversions here and there.There are some flaws in other characters but it is acceptable if you overlook it.These are my opinions about the movie.Avoid falling for its high ratings and reviews and enjoy the emotional drama and exceptional performance of the lead character.

The BEST MOVIE I saw ever in my Lifetime!!!

If there is any better words than Awesome, Superb, Extrodinary, etc, then that is my Comment...
