Love has always been a pet theme of our filmmakers. After trying his hands at a couple of action subjects (Thiruvilayadal Aarambam and Malaikottai), director Boopathi Pandian has bounced back after a break with Kadhal Solla Vandhen.
As the title suggests, the film is a campus love story in which a junior boy falls in love with his senior girl. The remaining is told in an interesting way, though the film may remind you some earlier movies of Kollywood.
‘Nanu’ Prabhu (Balaji), a first year student at an arts college in Tiruchy, falls for a final year student Sandhya (Meghna). Prabhu is a do gooder who is a friend to everyone.
Eventually, Sandhya too develops an affinity towards Prabhu. But when he proposes to her, fate has it that she walks away from him. However Prabhu is still confident of wining her heart. What follows is a touchy climax.
Balaji emotes well. Equally good is Meghna. Equally impressive is Sabesh Bobby. Giving the film an able hand is Yuvanshankar Raja’s musical score. Had the director infused some more freshness in the script, Kadhal Solla Vandhen could have woven a magic.
