Ethir Neechal  is a simple city-based romantic comedy that is guaranteed to provide some wholesome family entertainment. Actor-turned-singer, Dhanush turns producer with the much-anticipated, Ethir Neechal, a film produced under the banner of his new production house, Wunderbar Films. The film is directed by debutant director R S Durai Senthilkumar, a former associate of director Vetrimaaran.

Simple and honest, Ethir Neechal is two hours of clean wholesome fun.  No goons chasing anybody, no unnecessary fight scenes, and no violence or bloodshed.

What is undoubtedly the highlight of the film is the Dhanush-Nayanthara kuthu dance number that had the audience on their feet, whistling, clapping and screaming for an encore.

On the whole, though the movie isn’t very racy, it offers something for the entire family. Beyond just being a mindless romantic comedy, it also makes some valid points about the state of poor athletes in the country.

He seems to have chosen the perfect vehicle to launch his maiden production venture.  There is beauty in the simplicity of R S Durai Senthilkumar’s script and along with his practical approach, the endearing characters and the sensational music, the film is sure to be a box-office winner. A must-watch.

Ethir Neechal is a city-based romantic comedy that is about a young man, Kunjithapatham (Sivakarthikeyan), who is embarrassed by his name. He is named after a family deity, Kunjithapatham Samy, after his mother developed some complications during his birth.  More than the actual name, he is shamed by its shortened version that makes him an object of ridicule among his schoolmates, friends and neighbours.

Fed up of being teased constantly, Kunjithapatham wants to change his name, but is afraid of incurring the wrath of God, who he believes will strike his mother.

Years fly by and his mother passes away.  Though much older now, he continues to be the butt of everyone’s jokes.  Since his mother is no more, he decides to go ahead and get his name changed to ‘Harish’, on the suggestion of a numerology specialist.

The very day he registers his new name, he meets Geetha (Priya Anand), a school teacher.  He takes this to be a positive sign and decides to make a clean break from everything connected to his old life.  He shifts to a new locality, gets a new job, pursues Geetha, falls in love and for the first time in his life he seems to be completely happy.

But does this happiness last?  What does fate have in store for him?  And most importantly, who is Valli (Nandita) and why does she come into his life?  All this is dealt with in the second half of the movie.
