Reno Rangan I still remember Gautham Menon's Press meet after 'Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa' success, He said 'some people did not like VTV much and my nest flick is for them. One of those was me and I thoroughly enjoyed each and every frame of NEP. Both the movies were totally different in story and presentation so comparing between them and saying which one is better is really a bad idea.Samantha's best performance so far in a Tamil movie and Jiiva was excellent as usual. This is the fight stories of three different stages of a love story. Of course it was slow like everyone complaining about, without those drag it would have been a mess because when the movie ends you will feel you went through those places and time along with the characters and the art of a movie always lies in the slow presentation.'This could be your love story' is the tagline of the movie and I found some similarities in few scenes that happened around me in real life. Hope Hindi version gonna be a huge hit like Tamil and Telugu. A must see Romance-drama by youngsters!

arjun-unidirector NEE THANE EN PONVASANTHAMGENRE: ROMANCE, DRAMARATING: 4/5Nee thane en ponvasantham---Gautham has created a rattling-fresh magical film. Its unique style of film-making and gleaming music have added to the class of the film. The level of maturity involved in the making is explicitly incredible and precisely the two key qualities that tends to define the film are subtlety and sensibility. In a nut-shell, it's a slice-of-life in an off-beat screenplay.Firstly, the superlative casting has to be eulogized for its elegant and sensible assortment. Jiiva and Samantha look like they were tailor-made for the roles they were portrayed in. Jiiva's dignified execution and Samantha's intense work elevated the narration. The terrace sequence just before the interval is brilliant in terms of photography and performance. The shot transitions are indeed of a higher level. Samantha's restlessness during the parley is pure reality and she managed to deliver it with utmost clarity. The supporting cast is also a bunch of felicitous choices. Though their sequences were limited, Santhanam and Vidhyulekha strived to emanate the best.Ilayaraja has proved it once and for all that he is still capable of tuning the audience to his euphonious tracks. The climax arrangement and the propensity that is created in the last 25 minutes is massively supported by sattru munbu song and the bgm, making it distinctly world-class. The breakage and assembly of songs pertaining to the situations is way profound and kudos to the director. When the maestro's music and Gautham's prominent visuals synchronizes, it does wonders. Not forgetting the dominant contribution, Na.Muthukumar made the songs gripping and feasible to connect with the gallery.Though being a quality experiment, the long shots and excessive reality may hinder the repeat audience for it made the screenplay real passive and stagnant. As per the present scenario, one of the main countenance of films is to entertain which is not satisfied by NEP. We can see the solace amongst the audience when Santhanam appears and their hankering for his presence. It's no surprise even for the director to see cynical reactions from B and C class audience as it was not intended for them. There is no point in contravening the critiques.NEE THANE EN PONVASANTHAM#Unseen urban classic with an off-beat narration.#Guaranteed gratification for moviegoers.#Applause for the director for his exquisite boldness to film a script in a raw and artistic manner without spicing it up with any commercial facets and bearings to satisfy the marketing demands or its strategies.

chen_sen Music / Songs: Was disappointed. Not able to pin point the reason. Lyrics were very good, guess the singers have disappointed. Don't know the reason why Illayaraja sir is still singing. Sorry to say this, i think he needs to stick to making beautiful musicStory: Man it did take me to my past. Taking a phone call in the bathroom :-) could not stop smiling at my own self... Having said that, at some points in the movie santhanams comedy was a let down. Unnecessary jokes and scenes recreated from vtv was a let down and irritated every body, including myself.Verdict: Enjoyed the movie, worth the 100rs ticket. but then again, as one of my friend remarked "it is a movie which can be digested by people who were, are in love... As in love Marriage " :-)

balajianimation-422-728119 First Half Very slow and second half full of unwanted songs that was too not nice .... VTV is a good movie from the director... But totally disappointing while watching.. Background music doesn't Suites the scenes. I am wondering how director missed out such things. VTV a Good Love story but this is worst Love story- No strong reason for a break up ...every one is crying out of the theater... Waste of Money & Time.... We cant compare VTV with is movie .. I thought it will be very good hit movie for JEEVA but I am sure it will run out of the theater soon, Wait and watch the Biggest & last Flop movie of the year 2012... Sorry to say like this but its true ...
