If you have to name one Mani Ratnam's best movies what would it be?
There is Mouna Ragam, Geethanjali, Agni Natchathiram, Nayakan, Anjali, Thalapathi, Roja, Bombay, Iruvar, Dil Se, Alai Payuthey, Kannathil Muthamittal, Guru, Raavanan, OK Kanmani, and Chekka Chivantha Vaanam. These are all one of India's best movies.
But what about Ayutha Ezhuthu? Who knew that Mani Ratnam created such a film? It is pretty underrated that not a lot of people talk about this movie nowadays even though this was a blockbuster hit at its time of release. This is something different and something new. Yes, this is inspired partly from Amores Perros but it is not a remake. The narrative style is something that made this film quite unique especially showing how the lives of three people would be connected following an incident. Suriya showed his best performance in this movie. This will be one of his best performances till date. I really liked the way how his character Michael is inspired by a prominent youth named George Reddy. Madhavan did a great job portraying a thug who worked for a politician. Siddharth of course gave his youthful presence as a careless high school teen. Meera Jasmine did a good job in portraying Inbasker's estrangled wife. I never knew Esha Deol is in this movie and her Tamil is pretty good. Trisha Krishnan of course is really gorgeous and would be one of the best actresses of India. And of course, P. Bharathiraja just gave an memorable presence as a politician the main antagonist in this movie.
A.R. Rahman and Mani Ratnam just show that they are one of the best teams in the world. A.R. Rahman gives different genres of music of this new millennial and an awesome BGM that suits well to this movie. He just really masters EDM and you would really love the acoustics. This is going to be one of his best works of all time.
Ayutha Ezhuthu would be counted as Mani Ratnam's best movies. This just something different from the masala blockbusters and what you call a true action movie. This is definitely a modern cult classic that will be remembered for many generations. This is a must watch for anyone interested in Indian movies and action fans. Definitely going to watch this a bunch of times.
