Siddarth (Arun) & Amala Paul ( Paarvathi) in the lead roles besides a pool of supporting cast like Ravi Raghavendra, Sriranjani, Suresh etc.

The movie begins with the narration of Siddharth explaining about how he faltered in his love and from there on the lecture starts.

Kadhalil Sodhapuvadu Yeppadi Review :

The very first thing to be mentioned is debutant director Balaji Mohan’s screenplay which he has tailored in a engaging, rather not boring manner. The director has chosen, apt faces for filling up each and every character, which is one of the main plus of the movie. The happenings seems to be unrealistic in a few sequences, but it is a usual thing in rom-coms.

On the acting front, Siddharth scores well as a charming, lovable college guy, which he is used to and continuing to do in most of his ventures. Amala Paul’s has done her job well. The supporting roles need a special mention, as they are the one who give us some timeout from Arun-Pavathy’s story narration, which at times seems to bore us a bit.

About the technicalities, Nirav Shah has done his best with the lens. The colors and locations shot, right from the college campus to each and every other place in the frame, keeps the freshness alive.

Music director Thaman has done full justice to the movie with his music. ‘Kaadhalithu Sodhappuvom’, ‘Love Love’ and the final songs are filmed in a happening way. The re-recording travels well with the script and adds good feel to the story, especially in the portions where emotional flow is on a high.

The movie can be declared as a perfect release for Valentine’s day weekend for age group between 18 to 40 and above as it holds portions showcasing the love story of a young couple and matured love of their parents as well.

Verdict : On the whole, ‘Kadhalil Sodhapuvadu Yeppadi’ is a 2 and a half hour lecture on how, to and what to do while in love, but interestingly the lecture is not boring.
