100 days of love (lang : malayalam) saccharine love!!

How i wish Frank Sinatra's 'Strangers in the night' had had lasted for long!
I have one serious complaint against the director, there's one scene where Sheela (Nithya Menon), dressed impeccably in black, visits Balan's (Dulquer Salmaan ) house for dinner on New year's eve while Sinatra's 'Strangers in the night' plays in the background, you would want the track, immortalized as one of the iconic love tracks of all time to play throughout their course of interaction but disappointingly enough, the director stops the song midway abruptly! Nevertheless, After a long time (post kaadhal kanmani, strange enough, that too with the same lead actors!) i have enjoyed a breezy love story immensely, there's nothing unconventional in the story though, but the treatment is superbly effective throughout, more so because of the charming Kadhal kanmani lead players! The first 40 mins is way too tedious but post interval the love track picks up its pace! The cinematography accentuates the frames with its hues and textures with profuse usage of autumn colors and night lights in ortonish tone, and its good to see Namma Bangalooru being one of the ideal destination in recent time for film makers to shoot romantic flicks!
