The idea of Kamal coming to Paris one month every year is not handled well.

Though both Jayam Ravi and Hansika Motwani have done excellent work, the handling of the story line and screenplay are pretty weak. And though Engeyum Kaadhal in itself is attempted as a breezy light feelgood film, like Prabhu Deva’s dances, it is unable to really take off much like the pigeon in the film. On the flip side, however, all the song and dance in the film look pre Sivaji The Boss (Shankar’s Rajinikanth starrer, 2007). Though the techniques used are more or less similar like in many films, which he or his brother Raju Sundaram have choreographed, one can experience Prabhu Deva and his trip through out. The song Valliye, Chakkara Valliye is superb – brilliantly choreographed and filmed. Just for this one moment I would say hats off to Prabhu Deva and I hope that this at least was original! Similarly, Prabhu Deva’s entry into the frame, when the hero and the heroine part in two different directions also is amazing. The hand of Prabhu Deva enters the frame with his voice, pushing him back gently but firmly, asking Prakash Raj to be just seated as he has not been offered any role in this film. In one of the usual chase sequences, as Kamal is running after a petty thief, through the streets of Paris, creating commotion, we see suddenly in a restaurant, actor Prakash Raj trying to get up, to look at what is happening.

His own playfulness does come to full potential in many places. He seems to enjoy choreographing the dances, fights and various romantic situations. So Kayal uses the same ‘technique’ on Kamal, making him feel jealous till he finally he says ‘I love you’ to her…Īfter taking the basic story plot, Prabhu Deva’s treatment is more like a dance and musical comedy.

But Kamal takes her love lightly and treats her on par with his other casual girl friends. Kayal coming to know of this saves Kamal and falls in love with him. He believes it is Kamal and wants to kill him. A new client walks in to find out the mystery man in his girl friend’s life. Rajasekhar (Suman), runs a Detective agency in Paris and his daughter, Kayalvizhi (Hansika Motwani) often reads her father’s client’s files. He doesn’t believe in love as according to him, it brings only sorrows. Kamal (Jayam Ravi) is a young billionaire, who on a monthly holiday in France, dates many women, but without any commitments whatsoever. The basic story line of Engeyum Kaadhal seems to be a straight rip off from Billy Wilder’s Love in the Afternoon, made way back in 1957! In Prabhu Deva’s Tamil film too, the story happens in Paris – maybe that is his way to pay homage to Billy Wilder! The only difference in the plot is that in the original film, the lead pair – Gary Cooper and the charming and perky Audrey Hepburn – are made out to be as an ‘odd’ couple but here Jayam Ravi and Hansika look like a ‘perfect’ couple.
