Adhe Kangal (2017 film)

Adhe Kangal (transl.The Same Eyes) is a 2017 Indian Tamil-language romantic thriller film written and directed by debutant Rohin Venkatesan and produced by C. V. Kumar.

The film had a theatrical release on 26 January 2017, coinciding with India's Republic Day to unanimously positive reviews.

Several days later, an old man walks into the restaurant telling how his daughter Deepa has been kidnapped as they were unable to return the money.

He works with a constable Panju, faking his identity as a journalist investigating the road accidents where the victim remains unidentified.

After listening to his story, they get hold of photos of his girlfriend Vasundhara, and with Sadhana's help, they identify her as Deepa, Varun's ex-girlfriend.

C. V. Kumar launched a project to be directed by Rohin Venkatesan during late May 2016, with Kalaiyarasan, Janani Iyer, and Sshivada selected to portray the leading roles.

[10] While singling out praise for actress Sshivada's performance, Baradwaj Rangan of The Hindu wrote "not as good as it sounds on paper, but not bad either" and stated "here's a great story, but the screenplay isn't tight".
