This is without doubt the best shot song in Tamil cinema for 2009. In fact, it would not be wrong to say that this is one of the best filmed songs of the decade. Director Pandiraj has expertly shown the way of taking a narration forward through a well planned sequence of shots in a song. A simple montage which took us through the lives of the main characters, the song, in a span of minutes, narrates many small incidents which help the story move forward. ‘Meenakshisundaram’ lifting a Vairamuthu poem and claiming it to be his creation to ‘Sobikannu’ and the scrap book affair where the person who made it in the first place gets it back as a gift show that the director has done a great amount of homework to get things right. And, most of these things are illustrated to the audience with minimum dialogues which makes it even more special. Also, indicating the change of seasons by showing clouds moving in the sky (in what looks like time-lapse photography) is a cute touch. This is the kind of imagination and execution that makes songs look integral to a movie and we need more like these.
