      I can never forget this movie!!!

      There have been many movies more greater than this one, and i too have seen most of them. But this is one of the very very very very few ones that i can never forget in my life.

      I am not connected to this movie in any means. But the fact that this movie reflects the larger part of the teens(BOYS) in tamil nadu (or even India), is the magic binding that pulls the audiences and stays in their heart as long as they remember their teenage life. I watched this movie on my first semester of my college. In fact this is the first of the many movies that i watched bunking college. I not a gud guy, neither as bad as the hero of this movie. But i like to stay away from the typical rich, western minded, fashion freakish, academic geeks and guys who even think speakin in their mother tongue is low class. But i did my BE in one of the top ten premier engineering institutes in India(CEG). But me and my gang are not bookies. We loved this movie so much right from the first time we saw it.

      The hero is simply the best and the worst character of the movie. His portrayal as the one who leads his life as he wants, with no rules, not caring anything but himself, with loyal friends, sincere & middle class family is nothing strange to our country lads( well!! most of them, including me). But that is all that is known to the society.

      But what this movie tells extra is the daring punch line, but very much a needed one to our lads. The hero is worse than the average teen. He crossed the danger line and became nothing but a load of useless crap in the society. Then he sees the elixir of his life. A young girl of course!!!

      what happens rest is one of the most extra ordinary story ever made, between a completely opposite boy and a girl, against all the odds, against all the rules of love,life and success. It will make even the most purest,brainiest, ingenious,bookish boy out there, to want to have a life like the hero of the story.

      In a line, this movie if out of the book, totally against the rules, made for the ones who haven't tasted success, to triumph in life. And a knock out blow to the ones who think only their way succeeds.

      Its justifies in every sense, the phrase - "Transformation of a boy to a man". And who better to do that than a woman. To put in another way, this movie is the story of a boy(bad one) who gets the treatment of a stray dog in the society to the successful man ,who every one silently admires in their life with all the respect.

      "When u have a woman behind your life, that life is sure gonna rock. And u r the king of it." - This movie tells u that.

      But, not just that. "Life is not that easy, we have to fight & win every challenge that it wants us to face". Its here the climax comes. A tragedy that will break all hearts, right at the moment where no one wanted. But thats life!!!!!!!

      All in all!! This movie is a must see for every boy out there, to understand what life actually is, and to conquer it. I can never forget this movie coz, like many out there, i feel this movie is made for me!!

      10/10. U will be disturbed after coming out from the movie.

      A Profound Exploration of Love with Unforgettable Music by Yuvan Shankar Raja

      "7G Rainbow Colony" is a masterpiece that significantly broadened my perspective on love. This Tamil film, directed by Selvaraghavan, masterfully captures the raw and unfiltered emotions that come with young love.

      The story revolves around Kathir, played by Ravi Krishna, and Anita, portrayed by Sonia Agarwal. Kathir's character is deeply flawed, yet his journey of transformation is both relatable and heart-wrenching. Despite the disturbing scene where Kathir peeks at Anita through the window, the film beautifully redeems itself by showcasing the depth of his love and the lengths he's willing to go for it.

      The songs and background music, composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja, are nothing short of phenomenal. Yuvan's music seamlessly blends with the narrative, enhancing every emotion and moment in the film. The soundtrack is a perfect mix of soulful melodies and energetic tracks, each resonating with the audience and adding layers to the storytelling.

      Overall, "7G Rainbow Colony" is a poignant exploration of love, redemption, and personal growth. It's a film that stays with you long after the credits roll, thanks to its powerful performances, compelling narrative, and exceptional music. Highly recommended but not suitable for this current generation.

      tear jerking

      what a great movie.. i think its amongst the ranks of Kaadhal.

      I'll admit i was revolted by Ravi Krishna but he proved to be a good actor!

      He grew on me... i'm sure you've read the review before so i won't bother much on that.. just a short summary:vagabond guy falls in love with girl, she turns him into a good guy and though she professes to have no feelings for him, she slowly falls for him.

      now reading that you might think OK another routine routine love story.. big mistake!

      the gradual progression of each character is anything but smooth. The edges are always sharp..you never see an outright change in Ravi nor Anita(Sonia). Its not a rose colored, glossy portrait of real life. Its real life in all its raw jolting emotion. I mean she relents ultimately, but she doesn't do it as to compromise her behavior. Its not a sudden illogical character change...one moment being disgusted and irritated to next moment being loving and caring and attentive.

      Ravi Krishna's character is always like a ruffian and i think this key aspect of the movie gives it its credibility. In the end we have insight as to how good of a character Ravi Krishna really is and how much love he has for Anita.

      The thing i like most about this movie is that you walk away with some feeling of satisfaction.

      There were some really funny scenes...as well as some tense ones and obviously this was a controversial movie.

      Sri Raghava has to be commended for pushing the envelope in such a right wing country as ours..and i'm surprised that he came out without having any of the theaters being burnt down! I recommend this movie whole heartedly if you are tired of watching mindless cr*p..and want 2 watch something heart rendering.
