Recently, had watched this movie on TV. I missed to watch this movie in theaters after hearing some avg reviews, have to blame myself and I regret for this decision. Probably, why this kolaveri? shouldn't have happened to this movie which created a different outlook of the movie expectation. Everyone would have expected a jolly, romance fun- filled movie, but it is not. There's saying don't judge a book by its cover. Why this kolaveri? song completely spoiled this movie from getting its cult status which it deserved to be. Now the movie has become a very underrated and people are not interested to watch again. Director has set the mood starting from first frame showing Ram (Dhanush) deadbody which clearly says its not your usual regular romantic-fun movie. This movie is not for the audience who wants to spent a few hours by crunching pop corn, frequently chatting/texting in mobile phone. This movie requires the audience time and heart to be spent to understand the main two characters Ram and Nandhini, and once you are ready to invest, director (aishwarya) and Music director (Anirudh) takes you to their world and in their life which throws a LUMP in your throat. I usually, watch movies very seriously without missing a frame on screen. I was imagining myself to be Ram and watching it. I was able to feel each and every emotions that character was going through and finally i cried out a loud nearing last few mins. Hats off to the director for making me cry and feel the pain of the lead characters. This movie definitely need a patience watching and requires your time and heart to invest, you will reap great returns and its a wonderful experience that your heart is heavy with those returns Missed to become a cult classic - but for me its more than that...

awesome movie it shows real lifethis movie will always stay in my heart i have not written a single review in my life this is the first time i am writing one.shruthi has improved in her performance. dhanush acting is very good. mind-blowing movie.it has very good songs.anirudh has done excellent in is debut film.Must watch for all movie lovers.The BGM was excellent.Lovely movie! Breathtaking performance by Dhanush! One of the finest actors of the present generation. His character will stay with you for some time even after leaving the cinema hall. Complimented well by Shruthi & the supporting cast. Won't be surprised to see Dhanush getting his second consecutive national award. And of course Aishwarya deserves a huge applause for making all this possible.Great direction indeed. Brilliant script. The 3 stages of couple's life has been shown brilliantly.

this movie might not appeal to the mass crowd looking for a typical family masala entertainment. but for some one who will enjoy serious sensible cinema, 3 is a definite watch. Its true that Dhanush has continued his genre of psychotic streak from Mayakkam Enna into this movie as well. But as débutant director, Aishwarya has created a movie that will keep you hooked through the entire stretch.The first half of the movie is light and fresh, and almost every teenager or adult will relate to it. the sweet and cute love story of two school kids, that grows into a relationship is well shown.the second half of the movie is a true showcase of Dhanush's acting. the darker shades of the character keeps up the suspense effect of the movie.i would definitely recommend this movie for anybody who wants to watch a sensible different movie, which isn't just a brainless entertainment.

Really a Mokka movie u never saw....not even a 5 min entertainment in the movie...........Full of love,love and nothing found in the love.......More than Anirudh's massive hit Why this Kolvaeri DI, Kannazhaga pleases our ears more. The picturisation of the song Kolaveri, which went viral on the internet when released in November last year, doesn't match up to its popularity. Aishwarya's 3 is no exception. The hero suffers from a disease, but no valid explanation is given for that. Hiding Ram's illness from Janani is justified, but one wonders why Senthil didn't approach Ram's father who would've arranged for his treatment. Post-interval, the movie never gets a chance to rise. Dhanush and Shruti have performed well, both in romantic and emotional scenes. But their efforts have gone futile as audiences refuse to tolerate the same drama that they have already seen umpteen times. Shruti looks beautiful. Dhanush was not playing a mentally disturbed person for the first time in 3, and his acting has matured a lot.
