If there was one Tamil movie that sent scores of young hearts afluttering in the early 2000s, it was Alaipayuthey. Directed by Mani Ratnam, one of India’s most celebrated contemporary filmmakers, the movie tells the story of a pair of young lovers (played by Madhavan and Shalini) who elope, only to realise marriage might not be a bed of roses. Critically acclaimed for capturing a realistic love story in an urban India poised between tradition and modernity, the movie also features a celebrated soundtrack by A.R. Rahman.
