Cast: Dhanush, Sonam kapoor, Abhay Deol
Cinematography: Nataraj Subramanian, Vishal Sinha
Music: A.R.Rahman
Writted by: Himanshu Sharma
Directed by: Anand.L.Rai

Dhanush's maiden innings in bollywood, pairing up with sonam kapoor and also with the likes of cinematographer Nataraj Subramanian and Music Director was so much expected expecially by the tollywood fans. Has the film lived up to its expectation??? Lets find out.

Raanjhanaa is certainly a cute love story. Dhanush perfectly fits into the role of Kundan, the son of a tamil priest. Many had doubted initially how Dhanush could fit in a bollywood movie. But Dhanush breaks everyones words with his awesome acting. He really make many people to cry during the final parts of the movie. Kudos to him. [சும்மா கலக்கிட்ட சித்தப்பு...]

Sonam Kapoor looks like a cute doll. She has certainly lived as Zoya, a muslim girl. She is so cute in her expressions. Abhay Deol who come in as Sonam Kapoor's Boy Friend has also done justice to his role.

Nataraj Subramaniam and Vishal Sinha have worked pretty good with their cameras. Right from the Dusserah scenes in kasi till the scenes in New Delhi, everthing have been shot so perfectly. Editing done by hemal kotari is also fantastic. Songs by A.R.R are mind boggling. BGM is also so perfectly tuned.

Director Anand.L.Rai has done a great work in his second film. The way he depicts dhanush as a guy with tamil accent and partially hindi, the communal differences and the political interventions are so brilliant. Kudos to him. Script written by Himanshu Sharma, is really so touching. It’s rare to see a film stay true to its story with such conviction.

Positives:

• Dhanush's Fantabulous performance
• Sonam Kapoor
• Brilliant script and Direction by Himanshu Sharma and Anand.L.Rai

 Negatives:

• The slow pace of the movie in second half [Un avoidable]
• A slight resemblance like his previous movie '3'

Even these negatives won't affect the flow of the story. Whenever people criticize Dhanush, he replies back with his awesome performance and this is one such. And certainly this movie is not restricted to lovers alone. Great work by the entire 'Raanjhanaa' team for kindling the audience with mixed emotions.

RATING-7.25/10 [சும்மா நச்சுனு இருக்கு]
