Mayakam Enna

Mayakam Enna releases at a crucial time in the history of the world when the abundance of opportunities convinces youth to lead lonely lives amidst their material accomplishments.At a time when ambition seeks occupational success relegating personal life to the second position, the movie shocks its audience by narrating the struggle of a 'modern' girl who commits herself to the passion of her naive and unsuccessful husband, who by the turn of disastrous luck develops a psychotic condition that makes him all the more dispensable to the society. As the plot develops one understands the metallic grit of the girl's mind in her every act aimed at securing the interests of her husband (Dhanush) whose nuisance worsens by the day. The character personifies emotional brilliance and immerses the unsuspecting audience into awe by the way she balances life's unfair moves. Yamini (Richa) displays dramatic tact in fighting the flat association's sternness, which despite its immaturity commands the respect of the viewer. The character displays tremendous resilience in combating the madness of Karthick (Dhanush), her husband, in her efforts to keep him connected to the world. She continues his (Dhanush's) battle to find him a break in his photographic carrier even after he'd given up efforts.

Several aspects of the film are way too dramatic and occur too often throughout the film. It is the non-conforming choices, which are viewed as impractical, the heroine makes that makes Mayakam Enna click. G.V.Prakash's background score preserves the pulse of the film. All performances are commendable while Richa and Dhanush have stood out through their scintillating performances. The hurried pace with which Tamil cinemas are known to take their ambitious protagonists towards monumental success has continued to wield its amateurish influence on the latest Selvaraghavan drama too. But to change that trend requires certain maturity both in the director and the audience which, hopefully, the future will witness. Mayakam Enna, it's a heroine's film. It is the story of how a photographer found a girl to write his story. That is Mayakam Enna, a reassuring love story. The film reminds the traditional solution, to modern society's infamous failure of shrinking lifespan of weddings, i.e., one remains the face of success to the world while the other strengthens and supports formidably and remains out of sight from the world.
