"Vaaranam Aayiram swept me of my feet"
 
Hi,

My name is M.Satish Kumar and I am 25 yrs and an avid movie buff. I had seen Vaaranam Aayiram yesterday in Abirami (evening show) along with 3 of my friends. I was just blown over and "swept of my feet" (quoting a dialogue in the film) and this typifies the experience that I had of the film. Some directors have the special talent of bringing out the best from some actors. For example, Mani Ratnam brought the best out of actors like Arvind Samy, Madhavan, Kamal (Nayagan,one of my all time favourite movies) and Rajini (Dalapathi,and I have not seen Rajini act like that again) and I am a die-hard fan of Mani Ratnam and Rajini. Likewise, I feel Gautham brings the best out of Suriya and they create magic on screen, like they have done for Vaaranam Aayiram.

I knew that Suriya was a good actor,but never knew that he had so many dimensions to his acting in his repertoire. Many might feel Suriya's attempt to make himself a better actor and choose better roles started from "Nandha" but I feel where he tried this first, was from the film "Mounam Pesiyadhe" and I just loved that film and I personally feel Suriya discovered his acting skills in the film, and this gave him confidence to choose challenging roles the future.

Coming back to Vaaranam Aayiram, I feel it has two stories intertwined together, one which captures the trials and tribulations of one person and the other is the beautiful relationship that a father and son have and after seeing this film many will wish and yearn that they had such a father. Certain scenes in the film really moved me, for example where Suriya calls up his father in the film and tells him about a sad incident that had happened. Suriya was exceptional in that scene, both as a father and a son.The film also shows how smoking can kill you, and also the advice that Suriya's father gives him that he should channel his anger and frustration into positive energy, is truly inspirational. He then works out at the gym and uses his anger in building up a good physique and eventually becomes an army man.

Suriya's dedication equals to that of Vikram and he is also a worthy heir to Kamal's legacy.We were awestruck at how he looked just like a school kid and how he looked every bit of an army man in the film, right from the physique, to the talk and the walk, etc. Simran has done a great job and after this film, I feel many roles will be created to accommodate her acting skills. The songs in the film were truly awesome, especially "Nenjukkul peithidum" song sung by Hariharan is superb and I still get goose bumps when I hear that song. I heard that Gautham and Harris have split and that news is truly heartbreaking. I hope they could bury their differences and once again team up to create magic.

I read the news about Gautham cutting off the kidnap scene from the film because of the audience reaction that the film is too long, but I personally feel the film is justified in its length. I also heard many say that it was overly melodramatic but I really feel otherwise (but anyway, opinions are subjective). I really feel that this film is a wholesome entertainer and has everything for everyone and like my friend Sathish puts it, the film is "Fully loaded".

PS: I am also a frequent Behindwoods visitor, and certain posts published by you of the opinions of the film watching public, for example "how one fan did not like an Ajith film " and "how stars should grow up and out of their image" was really good and which encouraged me to write my personal review for Vaaranam Aayiram. I also like the authentic information that you publish. Keep up the good work.

Regards,
