What happens

New is a 2004 Indian Tamil-language science fiction sex comedy film directed, written and produced by S. J. Suryah, who also stars alongside Simran. Kiran Rathod and Devayani play supporting roles. The music was composed by A. R. Rahman, in his first collaboration with S. J. Suryah. In the film, an 8-year-old child gets an experiment done on him that requires him to live as himself during the day and like a 28-year-old man at night. Chaos begins after he toggles between two roles simultaneously. New was simultaneously shot in Telugu as Naani with Mahesh Babu and Ameesha Patel, while Devayani reprised her role in Naani. The plot is adapted from the 1988 American film Big. It was released on 9 July 2004. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
