Development

In October 2013, producer A. M. Rathnam signed up Ajith Kumar for another film following their collaboration in Arrambam (2013) and director Gautham Menon was confirmed to direct the project.[5] Sridhar Raghavan, who wrote the script for the Bollywood film, Dum Maaro Dum (2011), was also signed by the team to assist Gautham Menon with film's script, Thiagarajan kumararaja an national award winner is also credited for the screenplay.[6] Harris Jayaraj was signed on as composer,[a] despite early speculations that A. R. Rahman would work on the film.[8]

Anirudh Ravichander had hinted about himself working in the film, but his inclusion remained unconfirmed, and ultimately proved to be untrue.[9] Australia-based cinemtographer Dan Macarthur was selected to do the film's cinematography.[10] The film was earlier rumored to be titled Sathya, which was denied by sources.[11] Another potential title for the film was Aayiram Thottakal.[12] On 29 October 2014, Suresh Chandra, Ajith's agent, confirmed the title for the film to be Yennai Arindhaal ([Well, if you know me...] Error: {{Lang-xx}}: text has italic markup (help)).[13] The title of the dubbed Telugu version was announced as Yentha Vaadu Gannie ([No matter how strong the opponent is...] Error: {{Lang-xx}}: text has italic markup (help)) along with few poster designs on 23 November 2014.[14]

Casting

Anushka Shetty was signed on by the team to play the female lead, despite early suggestions that Pallavi Subhash had been selected for the film.[15] Actresses Trisha Krishnan and Amy Jackson were also reported to be approached by Gautham Menon to play the first female lead role.[16] Prior to the official announcement of the cast, several actors were linked to portray the role of the antagonist in the film including Karthik and Prashanth.[17] Actors Aadhi, Arun Vijay and Arvind Swamy were also reported to be part of the cast, though the latter denied signing the film.[18][19] Aadhi also clarified on not acting in the film.[20] In mid-April 2014, Arun Vijay was confirmed to portray the film's antagonist and had started filming his portions.[21]

On 18 April 2014, comedian Vivek joined the cast, collaborating with Gautham Menon after the director's first venture Minnale (2001).[7] Bangalore based Amit Bhargav was selected to play the role of Anushka's beau in the film.[22] On 15 May 2014, Trisha Krishnan was officially cast as another female lead of the film, collaborating with Gautham Menon for the second time after Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa (2010).[23] Her role was later confirmed as the wife of Ajith's character.[24] Actor Thalaivasal Vijay was chosen to play a supporting role.[25] Ajith's salary was reported to be around ₹250 million (US$3.0 million) for the film.[26] Parvathy Nair was cast in a prime role paired opposite Arun Vijay,[27] making this film her second in Tamil after the upcoming Uttama Villain.[28] Daniel Balaji played a cameo thus becoming a part of all films in Gautham Menon's cop trilogy.[29][30]

Menon stated that details regarding the film would be unveiled by the end of August 2014.[31] As per his statement, Menon later said that Ajith would appear in four different looks in the film, and Anushka would portray an IT professional in the film.[32] Trisha said that her portion in the film would have a more intense love story than her last outing with Gautham Menon, Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa (2010).[33] She further said that though Ajith had been playing commercial films off late, this film would show him in a radical avatar that she herself would love to see him in.[34] It was confirmed that Ajith would be sporting black hair, a thick moustache and a slimmer look in the portions involving Baby Ankitha and Trisha, whereas he would appear in his natural grey hair style in the portions involving Anushka.[35][36] According to sources, Ajith would be seen riding a Bullet Bike in the film.[37] Stills featuring Ajith sporting a bearded look were released in early October 2014.[38] In November 2014, Vivek confirmed that his character — a police officer — would be a rather serious character with only a subtle sense of humour.[39]

Filming

A. M. Rathnam issued an official statement confirming that the film would be launched on 9 April 2014 and a ceremony was thereafter held to mark the beginning of the project.[40] The first filming schedule subsequently began on 11 April 2014 near the VGP Universal Kingdom theme park near Chennai.[41] The first schedule was completed after 12 days of shooting in Chennai, during which an action sequence was filmed.[42]

The second schedule began shooting on 14 May 2014.[43] A lot of night time shooting was said to have taken place in the film, especially in Mount Road.[44] Shooting also took place in Malaysia.[45] Dan Macarthur confirmed that the second schedule was completed by the end of May 2014.[46] A wedlock scene between Ajith and Trisha was canned in the last week of July 2014.[47] Shooting continued in Chennai along the ECR stretch up to the first week of August,[48] during which the portions involving Baby Ankitha were completed.[49] In the second week of August 2014, about 75% of the filming was reported to be completed and a few scenes, including a train sequence, were shot in Hyderabad.[50] A scene featuring Ajith and Trisha and background artists was filmed in a theatre.[51]

Filming moved to Rajasthan where a song sequence was shot in segments in Jaipur, Jodhpur and Jaisalmer for 10 days.[52] A romantic song, "Mazhai Varapoguthey", which featured Ajith, was shot in September 2014.[53] Filming then proceeded in Sikkim, where a "lullaby" song sequence featuring Ajith and Baby Ankitha was shot.[54][55] The final schedule of filming began at Hyderabad again, where filming continued for 15 days.[56] By late November, the shoots of all the songs have been done and a fight sequence was shot in Binny Mills in Meenambakkam, Chennai. A solo song with Trisha was also completed. In early December, shooting of the climax chase sequence was done in guerrilla film-making mode in some busy roads of Chennai without the knowledge of the public.[57] Shoot of climax fight sequences began on 8 December 2014.[58] Few key scenes were shot at Hyderabad Railway Station in mid December 2014.[59] Later few patchwork scenes were shot at Chennai for 3 days with which principal photography came to an end.[60]

The film was shot entirely on the Arri Alexa digital motion picture camera system. [61]

Themes and influences

Gautham Menon described Yennai Arindhaal as the third in his franchise of police films after Kaakha Kaakha (2003) and Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu (2006), and the last of the trilogy. He also described Ajith's character Sathyadev as an "extension" of the protagonists in the first two films.[62]

Music

Untitled

The film's soundtrack album and background score were composed by Harris Jayaraj. The soundtrack album consists of seven tracks.[63] All but one song had lyrics written by Thamarai.

In July 2014, Harris recorded a romantic song sung by Karthik.[64] Harris said that he had recorded a fresh voice from the United Kingdom for the first song in the film,[65] which was planned to be similar to "Karka Karka" from Menon's Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu (2006).[66] In August 2014, Harris started recording the third song for the film.[67] On 18 September 2014, he updated that 3 songs were completed.[55] It was also known that Trisha's character would have a solo song.[68]

In response to the request by Ajith's fans, the makers agreed to release a single track prior to the soundtrack release.[69] The "mass number" "Adhaaru Adhaaru" sung by Vijay Prakash and Gana Bala, the only song that did not feature lyrics by Thamarai but Vignesh Shivan, was released as the lead single on the 11 December 2014.[70][71] Within hours of its release the track topped the iTunes Indian songs chart.[72][73] [74] On YouTube, the single track got over 30 thousand hits in 24 hours and was liked by more than 7 thousand viewers.[75] Harris Jayaraj confirmed via Twitter that "Adhaaru Adhaaru" was a gangster song and not Ajith's introduction song in the film.[76]

Harris Jayaraj was busy working on the final mix of the OST in early December 2014.[77] It was confirmed that the score and the songs would be done in Dolby Atmos surround sound system.[78] The audio rights were purchased by Sony Music[79] and the album was released on 1 January 2015. Within hours of its release, the soundtrack topped the iTunes Indian albums chart. The album received positive reviews from critics,[80][81][82][83] with The Hindu stating that the music repeated the magic of his last collaboration with Gautham Menon, which was Vaaranam Aayiram (2008).[84]

Critical reception

The film received mixed to positive reviews from the critics.[100][101]

Nicy V.P of The International Business Times rated the film 4 stars out of 5 and wrote "Yennai Arindhaal is one of the classiest movies of Ajith and Gautham Vasudev Menon is back with a bang with this entertainer".[102] Karthik of CNN-IBN rated 4 out of 5 and stated "Ajith kumar as the cop, the gangster, the father and the lover will win you over".[103] M. Suganth of The Times of India gave 3.5 stars out of 5 and wrote "it does seem less punchy than Kaakha Kaakha and Vettaiyaadu Vilayaadu but the film belongs to Ajith and the star is in such fine form here".[104] IANS gave 3.5 stars out of 5 and wrote, "Despite some tonal and length issues, Gautham impresses mostly in Yennai Arindhaal, and gives this tale of a police officer a much need emotional tug".[105] Karthik Subramanian of The Hindu wrote "Performances lift an otherwise predicatable fare from Gautam Vasudev Menon".[106] Another reviewer from The Hindu, Sudhir Srinivasan, wrote, "A rushed climax, a problematic organ trafficking angle, a repeated plot device, a predictable ending… and yet Yennai Arindhaal comes as a breath of fresh air...There's just that one melisaana kodu (thin line) that stops it from being terrific".[107] A third reviewer from that site, Udhav Naig, wrote that "the final installment of Gautham Vasudev Menon’s cop trilogy...is a much-needed intervention in the Tamil commercial cinema space. It is also the most engaging of the three".[108]

Sify wrote that the film was "watchable" for "Ajith’s majestic screen presence and the underlying emotional current".[109] Rediff gave 3 stars out of 5 and wrote, "The backdrop of Yennai Arindhaal is new and the plot is engaging, but the characters, the situation, and even the dialogues are reminiscences of director Gautham Menon's previous cop films".[110] Indiaglitz rated the film 3.25 out of 5 and wrote "Gautham Menon Class delivered by Ajith’s Mass screen presence".[111] Behindwoods.com rated the film 3 out of 5, calling it "Gautham's movie with Ajith adding colour admirably".[112]

The Tamil website NewsTIG noted similarities between Yennai Arindhaal and the Korean film The Man from Nowhere (2010).[113]
