Requiem for love: 2 hearts, pure emotion.

Requiem for a successful production: The entire team moving and thinking as one entity; differences and different personalities notwithstanding.

Kanden Kadhalai is a faithful, yet unique remake of the smash hit Hindi movie Jab We Met, directed by young Imtiaz Ali.

Bharath and Tamannaah play the lead roles of Sakthivel, a rich, disenchanted businessman who suddenly finds himself a failure in love and at work; and Anjali, a young running too full of beans to be true, planning to run away from her charming family in Theni with the boy she is in love with. This is just as Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor played Aditya and Geeth in the original Jab We Met. And so the story goes...

Shakthi (Bharath), a despairing industrialist, is even more brokenhearted as he is jilted in love as well. Unable to face returning home alone, he aimlessly wanders off to the railway station and boards a train, bounding away into the night. As destiny would have it, on the train he meets Anjali (Tamannah), a beautiful but annoyingly talkative girl who is leaving Chennai  to go her hometown, Theni. She tells Shakthi - a complete stranger, but that doesn抰 bother her - that she has plans of eloping with her boyfriend. So annoying is this chatty gnat of a girl, that the irritated Shakthi jumps off the train to escape from her. As Anjali tries to get him back on the train, she ends up missing it and the two find themselves stranded on a desolate station. Unwilling to leave a young girl to preying men, Shakthi sighs and decides to get her home safely, not knowing the rollercoaster ride that awaits him. Eventually, just as he begins to fall in love with her, they go their separate ways and he returns with strangely renewed energy at work. How the come back together forms the storyline of Kanden Kadhalai, a beautiful and captivating  made-for-each-other love.
