(translates as "in your kitchen")
2014
5/5 stars
Kalidasa (Prakash Raj), a gourmand, is still single in his 40s. A miss-dialed phone call introduces him to Gowri (Sneha), also single in her 30s. They begin a phone friendship based on cooking, which becomes deep enough that they want to meet in person. When the time comes, though, Kalidasa becomes nervous due to insecurities and fears, and so sends his nephew Naveen (Tejus) to scout out the situation first. Unbeknownst to Kalidasa, Gowri, for the same reasons, also sends her young friend Meghana (Samyukta Hornad). This sets up all four for heartbreak.
Un Samayal Arayil is a gentle movie with a compelling plot and believable characters. All four principle actors do a wonderful job, especially Raj, who displays emotions so well. In this film, music does not play as important a part as usual in Indian Cinema, but it is still lovely. This is a beautiful movie that I can recommend universally.
