At
the heart of Vasanth’s Yai Nee Romba
Azhaga Irukey is a brilliant romantic notion:
that the truest love is unrequited love.
What does this mean in the context of this
film? Shyam loves Sneha but Sneha is not
in love with Shyam. What is Shyam to do?
Kill himself? Drink himself to death (like
Devdas?) hate Sneha for life? Shyam’s
deepest held (and moving) conviction is
that nothing changes. He will simply continue
to love her; there will be no other for
him. Vasanth deserves to be congratulated
for bringing such gentleness, depth and
complexity into our notion of love into
our otherwise shallow love stories. |
