Watch Mental Manadhil: AR Rahman gets his rhythm back in Ratnam's Ok Kanmani

A new song, Mental Manadhil, from Mani Ratnam’s upcoming romance,Ok Kanmani is out and brings with it the trademark AR Rahman that we have been missing for sometime now.

Click here to view the video of the song:

Through this song we are introduced to Adi (Dulquer Salmaan) and Tara’s world( Nithya Menen). In the film Adi is a commitment phobe. Although he falls for Tara, he has no intention of “settling down” with her. Fortunately, Tara isn’t dying to get married either. She seems quite secure in her relationship with Adi. We already saw her tease Adi about his phobia of getting married in the trailer. However, as we all know, if the trailer has shown us all this, then there’s going to be a lot more drama coming Tara and Adi’s way. The trailer offers no indication of what lies in store for the two lovebirds.

Said to be a campus love story laced with comedy, the film will mark Ratnam’s grand comeback to the romance genre after a decade. His last romantic outing was R Madhavan-starrer “Alaipayuthey”, which was later remade in Hindi as “Saathiya”.

Ratnam is planning to release “Ok Kanmani” on 14 April, which marks 15 years since the release of “Alaipayuthey”.

“While it was decided right at the beginning that the film will release in April, it was recently that Mani realized if released April 14, it will be the perfect tribute to one of his biggest hits ‘Alaipayuthey’,” the source said.

The film has music by AR Rahman and also marks the reunion of Ratnam with lensman PC Sreeram after a decade. It’s touted to be Mani’s quickest projects and is said to have been completed in about two months.

Some crucial portion of the film was shot in Mumbai, IIM Ahmedabad campus as well as CPET University. Nithya plays an architect in the film and renowned Indian architect BV Doshi plays her professor.
