About
Two young Mumbai professionals — a game designer and an architect, both committed to their careers above everything — fall in love and negotiate a relationship with no strings attached. Mani Ratnam's most contemporary and lightest film in years, a joyful portrait of millennial love framed by an elderly couple's enduring companionship.
Video Essay
Why This Matters
OK Kanmani is Mani Ratnam rediscovering lightness — a film that celebrates young love without either moralising or catastrophising. The frame of the elderly couple (Prakash Raj and Leela Samson) gives it depth without weight. A. R. Rahman's score is among his most playful and intimate.
