Inspired by director Murugadoss' Ghajini, director Ajay Sastry has come out with `Yennai Theriyuma', which is about a youth affected by a strange mental disorder - he forgets everything about himself after he wakes up from his sleep everyday.
Ghajini dealt in detail about a young man, who was affected by memory loss and how he goes about to bump off the killers of his beloved.
Similarly, `Yennai Theriyuma' is a tale of a techie suffering from a similar disorder who has to clear his name from a murder.
Produced by veteran Telugu actor Mohanbabu, the movie marks the entry of his son Manoj Kumar, to Kollywood. The director deserves appreciation for coming up with a gripping first half. However towards the latter part, it goes on a predictable mode and fizzles out as an ordinary film.
Manoj Kumar has performed admirably well and with his body language and perplexed expressions brings before us a man who is constantly searching his identity.
Riya Sen as his lover Madhu looks cute. She has a bearing on the story. Only Sneha Ullal as a police officer is far from convincing on screen.
Aditya (Manoj) who is working as a manager in a big business outfit meets with an accident and loses his memory. The problem is that he cannot remember anything about the past after he wakes up from sleep. Only two people his uncle (Nasser) and personal doctor know about the problem.
Even his lover Madhu (Riya Sen) is oblivious of his predicament. Unexpectedly, Aditya's uncle is found murdered and Aditya becomes the prime suspect. An IPS officer Anjali (Sneha Ullal) arrives to solve this murder mystery. The rest of the story deals with the unraveling of the hidden secret.
The cast includes Brahmanandham and Sunil. Popular comedian M S Baskar has dubbed for Brahmanandham. Music directors Achu and Dharan have composed tunes for the film.
`Yennai Theriyuma' is a movie that is more like a food menu with overdose of Andhra flavor.
