Director Ashok Thyagarajan’s Maayanadhi speaks about whether romance in school days is right or wrong. Produced by Raji Nila Mukil Films, the movie features Abi Saravanan, Venba and Aadukalam Naren in key roles.
The highlight of the movie is that it speaks about the difficulties that a girl who prepares for her final exam in school undergoes after she falls in love.
The filmmaker has made it an emotional drama throwing light on confidence that fathers have on their children. Maayanadhi in a nutshell speaks about the bonding between a doting father and his loving daughter. Anbarasan (Aadukalam Naren) is a widower and his life revolves around his daughter Kausalya (Venba). She is a brilliant student and she aspires to become a doctor after completing schooling. Kausalya develops a relationship with an autodriver Senthil (Abi Saravanan), who takes her to the school daily. Though Anbarasan’s brother informs him about Kausalya’s affair, Anbarasan doesn’t believe it and blindly trusts his daughter.
However, when Kausalya and Senthil decide to take their relationship to the next level, Anbarasan comes to know about it and takes a drastic decision.
But the relationship between Kausalya and Senthil has not been established in a convincing manner. Abi Saravanan is good, while Venba fits to her role well. As usual, Aadukalam Naren has delivered an excellent performance, while Appukutty, who plays the protagonist’s friend, does justice to his role.
The highlight of the movie is Bhavatharini’s music. The songs reminds one off Ilayaraja at places and the background score elevates the content.
Had the filmmaker managed to drive home a string convincing message, Maayandhi could have flown more freely.Director Ashok Thyagarajan’s Maayanadhi speaks about whether romance in school days is right or wrong.
