Mandmadhan Ambu is definitely a much awaited movie as fans once again thrill themselves with the pairing of KS Ravikumar and Kamal Haasan. The joint collaboration of Madhavna, Trisha and Sangeetha to name a few is definitely something the audience would want to see. As the title suggests, expect the film to revolve around love, faith and honesty but handed out to the audience in a light way.
The films shows Ambujakshi (Trisha) who is about to be married to Madana Gopal (Madhavan) who works as an industrialist. But the Trisha’s profession becomes a barrier to her marriage with Maddy. They end up fighting and Trisha decides to go on a European cruise with Deepa (Sangeetha) who has two kids and is a divorcee. When Maddy finds out about this, he sends Mannar (Kamal) to spy on what Trisha is up to. Kamal accepts the job in order to pay for the medical expenses of his friend (Ramesh Aravind) who was cancer. Will Trisha and Maddy make up or break up? What happened to the cruise? The answer to these is what the movie is basically about.
Ravikumar has placed his style in narrating the story of the film, although it is good, the problem of the movie is its slow pace which can make the movie a little boring. The storyline is no doubt interesting but the way the movie unravels the story is just too slow. The script is definitely a good one but fails to catch the attention of the audience.
The acting of Kamal is no longer needed to be talked about as he has been doing it with much diligence for quite some time now. Sangeetha stands out from the rest of the cast because of she acts naturally. This is the first time for Trisha to really show she has something to offer with her acting skills. Madhavan seemed to enjoy portraying the role of a rich industrialist and was able to carry his character really well. The slow pace of the movie was definitely compensated by the cast’s great acting.
The music of the movie was under the composition of Devi Sri Prasad. The great cinematography was done by Manushya Nandan and the great costumes were by Gauthami.
