What happens

Aayutha Ezhuthu is a 2004 Indian Tamil-language political action film directed by Mani Ratnam. The film, loosely based on the life of George Reddy, a scholar from Osmania University of Hyderabad, stars Suriya, R. Madhavan, Siddharth, Trisha, Meera Jasmine, and Esha Deol, with Sriman, Janagaraj and Bharathiraja appear in pivotal roles. Notably, this film is the only Tamil film Deol has ever acted in. The film's title was taken from the name of the Tamil letter ஃ – three dots corresponding to the film's three different personalities from completely different strata of society. The score and soundtrack were composed by A. R. Rahman, while Ravi K. Chandran and Sreekar Prasad handled the cinematography and editing of the film. The film was simultaneously shot in Hindi as Yuva with an entirely different cast retaining Deol. Aayutha Ezhuthu was released on 21 May 2004, the same day as its Hindi version, and became a commercial success at the box office. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
