Starring Karthik Kumar (Kanda Naal Mudhal…. Ninaithale Inikkum fame) and debutante Aparna Nair, Edhuvum Nadakkum is a novel effort which tries to pull off a realistic narration in a commercially viable manner. We know that the film is a unique effort when the director (Maheshwaran) tells us that there is just one song which is also well entwined into the script. The length of the film is also under two hours, a definite departure from the regular commercial norms. This should be the second such film of the year after Unnaipol Oruvan. The scenic locations of Kerala, especially a big bungalow and surrounding regions are reportedly another highlight of the movie.
Anything can happen, that’s what the title literally means. So, what is it all about. Well, the premise is indeed very novel and interesting. It is about a young man who is driven to desperation due to the constant jeering ways of his colleagues who are always trying to demoralize him in spite of his best efforts to achieve something in his career.

Kesav Productions' Edhuvum Nadakkum, directed by K. Maheswaran and R. Rozario, is a bold attempt at providing some edge-of-the-seat moments. Naga (Karthik Kumar), a wannabe actor, is the caretaker of a bungalow owned by Ramalingam (Ramalingam). Ramalingam's granddaughter Pooja (Aparna Nair) comes from Singapore to visit her grandfather without informing him. When she arrives, Ramalingam is away and expected to return only the following day. Meanwhile, Naga who whets his appetite for acting by taking part in the local koothu performances, is denied permission to go on stage by the head of the performing group mainly because of his nagging wife Swarna (Suma) — she does not like him acting in plays. What happens when a disappointed Naga comes back home deepens the suspense.
