Excellent movie, but not pathbreaking (Possible Spoiler)

Warning: Spoilers
My best Tamil movie of the year - simply because there have been so many outlandish and mediocre ones these days. The plot is not totally original or revolutionary, but the movie never lacks in pace. It begins with the story of an orphan (Dhanush) moving to the city to study, where the fashionable people think him to be uncivilized and boorish. A kind girl (Sonia) takes sympathy on him and they become close friends - a relationship Dhanush mistakes for love without realizing Sonia's love for someone else. When you think the movie is going to be another love triangle, it takes an interesting turn - Dhanush has been a victim of child abuse and will do ANYTHING to win his lover!

Great acting by a relatively new set of actors, decent music score, and for a change in Tamil movies - A Story Line!

I would give it an 8/10, among my favourite Tamil movies of the year.
