Ninaivellam Neeyada Movie Review: Goutham was in love with Malarvizhi while in high school. But due to certain circumstances, they lose touch. Years later, Goutham is still in love with her, even though he has no idea about Malarvizhi and her life at the moment.

With just this basic storyline, Ninaivellam Neeyada might come across as a romantic drama along the lines of 96, where a young couple is separated when they are young and one of them still harbours feelings for the other.

But the film gets too much into drama territory and provides us with superfluous twists and turns that just feel out of place with the initial tone of the film.

Ninaivellam Neeyada is basically an overlong romantic drama that goes on and on and on. The film just doesn't come to an end, and a reason for that is the completely unwarranted songs that's poorly integrated into the screenplay.

The younger couple, played by Rohit and Yuvalakshmi, share way better chemistry than Prajin Padmanabhan and Sinamika, who essay their grown up versions.

Manisha Yadav as Anandi, who is madly in love with the protagonist, gets a poorly written character. She tries her best to sell the actions of her character, but to no avail. To showcase the obsession that Anandhi feels for Goutham, the makers have her say and do ludicrous stuff.

In one scene, to express the length to which she loves Goutham, Anandhi tells him that they will break the current guiness record of a woman who gave birth to nine babies together.

There's a Manobala joke in the film, which goes something like, ‘I thought you would be terror but you turned out to be a terrorist.’ The film is sadly filled with such silly moments and dialogues that makes it impossible to be taken seriously.
