Mr & Msr Iyer

The way the director dealt with the relationship between the two main protagonists of the movie with the communal riots as a background was brilliant. Two individuals who are different in every conceivable aspect are drawn towards each other under circumstances not of their doing. The nomadic and romantic lifestyle of Raja, his parenting nature and his boyish charms draw meenaxi towards him. The way raja describes the serene and pristine beauty of forests and his visualization of an imaginary honeymoon locale cast a spell on meenaxi who seems to have led a pretty normal and predictable lifestyle till then. It shows that irrespective of all social and moral constraints people do get attracted to others and lose touch with the ground reality which in such a situation acts as a rude awakening. The social and moral constraints are not forces of nature but are man made, whereas what we feel for another person is nature in its purest form.
