If you like Tamil musical dramas, here is a wonderful recommendation for you. ‘Kannathil Muthamittal’ is a film directed by the maestro Mani Ratnam and starring R. Madhavan. It came out in 2002 and gained wide acclaim.
The movie tells the story of a young girl of nine, named Amruta, who finds out that she is not the biological child of the couple she has been thinking of as her parents. She forms a very strong desire to meet her real mother and her adoptive father takes her to an epic journey in war-torn Sri Lanka to find her mother.
Apart from R. Madhavan, the movie also stars actors like Simran, P. S. Keerthana, Nandita Das and many others. The performances are just wonderful, just like any other Mani Ratnam film. Mani Ratnam has also written the story and screenplay.
‘Kannathil Muthamittal’ is a wonderful combination of romance, politics, fatherly love and internal conflict. A. R. Rahaman aligns his music with the mood of the movie beautifully.
Mani Ratnam and A. R. Rahman’s collaboration does the regular magic in Kannathil Muthamittal, like many other movies. The cinematography is handled by Ravi K. Chandran, who contributes his part to the striking visuals.
