Gajani

Gajani..
One movie that I liked after a long time.. I had never heard of it before, I really don't know when it was released but when I watched it, I wondered why people have not been talking about it. There are very few movies that carry some message in a beautiful manner and this is one of those few.
It is the flashback story of a business tycoon 'Surya' (now the victim of short-term memory loss, he does not remember anything for more than 15 minutes) and a simple girl 'Asin' (who is an aspiring model). She is from a middle class family and has been looked down by her boss. Her boss mistakes her to be the business tycoon's girlfriend and she keeps quiet because of the importance and respect that everyone start showing towards her. So when this news is flashed all over, Surya decides to meet her in person and on the way, sees her helping some blind children and is impressed. When he sees that she is the same girl who has been spreading the rumours, he falls in love with her, though he does not reveal his true identity(tells her that he is from a poor family and a struggling actor). Gradually both fall in love. The part where she gives him money by selling her CAR (which she had dreamt of buying to fulfill her father's wish) so that he can spend it to treat his mother (actually he lies to her that his mother is not well when he has to go out of town for a business meeting) is very touching.
And then she is killed in front of him, when trying to save some girls from being kidnapped. She dies without getting to know that he is the same business tycoon. He then starts on the mission to take revenge for her death and how he manages to remember them (keeps a alarm that rings every 15 minutes to remind him to look into the different photos that he keeps so that he can remember them) is very new and very nicely written and very nicely enacted.
Truly one movie which everyone should watch atleast once....
