It leaves you shaken, leaving behind images that last. Do go chasing this waterfall.

[Aruvi] is arguably the year's best film to have emerged out of Kollywood.

Rated: 4/5

The Times of India

Ultimately, Aruvi is actually about how a filmmaker can present even an old-fashioned story in a brand-new way if he invests a little bit of thought.

Rated: 4/5

Hindustan Times

The film is powered by Aditi, unarguably the boldest lead character one can come across in Tamil cinema this year. She is a revelation, and she's ably backed by Arun Prabhu, who makes a stellar directorial debut.

Rated: 3.5/5

The best India movie I had ever seen. I think people should make these kind of movie more. Add a little fantasy in real live. It will make people pay more attention to what's happening around.

ARUVI A lifetime experience. A stirring poetry of comfort and conflict . Movie carefully but consistently travels between the montage and narrative movie patterns complimented by a strong non-linear screenplay. Movie heads to a climax of profound human connectedness but with a profound agony. A Must watch. Aruvi will leave a deep impact on its viewers. It may leave an impression, or nostalgia or a scar based on what kinda of a person you are. But this movie is not going to go way without making a mark in everyone's mind. Gift from a new kid in the block(Arun), to remind the world, TAMIL cinema is much ahead of "so called" progressive cinema in the spectrum of international film fraternity.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
