Mani Ratnam's "Ok Kanmani" has received overwhelming response from audience as well as critics. Not only that, an industry stalwart and some Bollywood celebs have also appreciated the movie.
Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan, who watched "OK Kanmani" at a special screening, posted his views on his blog, writing the new Mani Ratnam flick combines many aspects.
"Shweta and I get to see Mani Ratnam's new and fresh Tamil film at a trial, and it is a sweet and endearing story of love among the young. Fresh and with a sense of the changing times, in keeping with the sensibilities of this generation, it shows compassion and example with great dexterity," wrote Amitabh Bachchan.
The legend also added that he was totally impressed with the performance of the lead actors in "Ok Kanmani" and that it was a delight to watch Dulquer Salmaan and Nitya Menen onscreen.

"Ratnam Values are not lost in the practices that this generation may desire, but sufficient understanding on both parts is beautifully portrayed by two young performers who play the lead. They are a delight to watch - the boy, Mammootty's son .. Mammootty the mega star of Malayalam Cinema in Kerala .. and equally a sprightly love interest in his opposite number .. a young lady of enormous verve. The unaffected way that the generation of today performs and represents themselves to the audience is so remarkable, that there is so much to learn from them, observe in them, accumulate from them," added Bachchan.
Meanwhile, the special screening of "Ok Kanmani" was also attended by Neil Nitin Mukesh, Aditi Rao Hydari, R Madhavan and Huma Qureshi.
