Tricked by a fraudster, Ajay and Anjali are forced to stay in the same flat. They gradually warm up to each other and start getting romantic notions but the arrival of Deepak, Anjali's fiance, puts them in a dilemma.
Review: Vanakkam Chennai uses one of the sub genres of the rom-com genre — the triangular love story. Here, Anjali (Priya Anand), a London-born Tamil girl who has come to India, should makeup her mind on whether she wants to marry her fiance Deepak (Rahul) or express her love to Ajay (Shiva), with whom she shares her flat. It is this flat that has brought them together in the first place. Ajay, who comes to Chennai from his village, and Anjali are rented out the same flat by the elusive Narayanan (Santhanam), a small-time swindler. Their relationship begins on a wrong note but circumstances force them to stay together. Not surprisingly, Ajay falls in love with her and seeks the help of Narayanan to bring them together. Even as Anjali warms up to Ajay, the arrival of Deepak only puts her in a dilemma.
The romantic comedy is one genre where you enter the theatre knowing what the outcome is going to be — boy gets girl. It is the journey and the pit stops that the two characters have to take that decide whether the film is an enjoyable one or a dull and predictable one.
