Anbe Vaa

Anbe Vaa is a 1966 Indian Tamil romantic comedy film written and directed by A. C. Tirulokchandar. The film features M. G. Ramachandran and B. Saroja Devi in the lead roles, while S. A. Ashokan, Nagesh, Manorama, T. R. Ramachandran and P. D. Sambandam play supporting roles. Broadly based on the 1961 American film Come September directed by Robert Mulligan, Anbe Vaa was produced and distributed by AVM Productions. The soundtrack and score were composed by M. S. Viswanathan while the lyrics for the tracks were written by Vaali. Anbe Vaa was the first film produced by AVM to be shot in Eastman Color, as well as being their first big-budget production; they had previously focused only on modest-budget films. The film was also the studio and Tirulokchandar's only collaboration with Ramachandran. The film follows JB, a wealthy industrialist who goes on vacation to his bungalow in Shimla, only to discover that his caretaker and his wife have left for Varanasi after renting the bungalow to a family of three. The rest of the film revolves around JB's response to this situation that he finds himself in. Principal photography for the film began in August 1965.
