They go to the police station to argue their case but when the inspector Chandra (a wasted Urvasi), who is also their apartment’s president, mistakes them for man and wife, they accept it casually!īut the way in which the two warm up to one another is done well - their tiffs gradually turn playful and friendly, and when Ajay starts getting romantic notions, it doesn’t feel abrupt. And, the reason why they decide to stay together is not convincing.

When you see Anjali letting herself into Ajay’s flat for the first time, you immediately are aware that there has been a mix-up and the two will fight for their rights to the place. In fact, most of the time, it is Anirudh’s background score that keeps reminding us that this is a romance as well as a comedy. Vanakkam Chennai belongs somewhere in the middle - it is slick and enjoyable to an extent but also predictable. It is the journey and the pit stops that the two characters have to take that decide whether the film is an enjoyable one or a dull and predictable one. The romantic comedy is one genre where you enter the theatre knowing what the outcome is going to be - boy gets girl.

Even as Anjali warms up to Ajay, the arrival of Deepak only puts her in a dilemma. Not surprisingly, Ajay falls in love with her and seeks the help of Narayanan to bring them together. Their relationship begins on a wrong note but circumstances force them to stay together. Ajay, who comes to Chennai from his village, and Anjali are rented out the same flat by the elusive Narayanan (Santhanam), a small-time swindler. It is this flat that has brought them together in the first place. Here, Anjali (Priya Anand), a London-born Tamil girl who has come to India, should makeup her mind on whether she wants to marry her fiancé Deepak (Rahul) or express her love to Ajay (Shiva), with whom she shares her flat. Review: Vanakkam Chennai uses one of the sub genres of the rom-com genre - the triangular love story. They gradually warm up to each other and start getting romantic notions but the arrival of Deepak, Anjali’s fiancé, puts them in a dilemma. Synopsis: Tricked by a fraudster, Ajay and Anjali are forced to stay in the same flat.
