Jeans

In a way, this is a true original. It’s a mixture of The Lawnmower Man, Disclosure, Twins, several episodes of various soap operas... I think I even saw it dubbed, apparently from Tamil to Hindi. So why did I give such a good review? For the excellent Aishwarya in the music videos, of course, for which the crew traveled half of the known world. And given that the music videos make up a good half of the runtime, it's ideal. I love a traditional "Toba Toba," but my jaw drops regularly at "Dharti Se Ambar Se" - the Great Wall of China, the Eiffel Tower, the Empire State Building, the Taj Mahal, the Pyramid of Djoser, the Colosseum in Rome, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and the list goes on and on... perhaps Sinbad and his skeletons will come along. Where did the Tyrannosaurus Rex come from? However, Jeans was the costliest and most successful Tamil film in its day. While Jeans was also only the third film for Aishwarya, it is interesting to note that one of her current hits this year is Robot, a film in which she reunited with director S. Shankar after 12 long years. It was also a return to Tamil for her, the language in which she made her debut in The Duo, continued with it in Jeans, I Have Found It, and after a long hiatus, she picked up the tradition again in this year's Raavanan and Robot.
