'''''Natpuna Ennanu Theriyuma''''' ({{translation|Do You Know What Friendship Means?}}) is a 2019 Indian [[Tamil language|Tamil]]-language [[comedy film]] directed by Shiva Aravind. The film stars [[Kavin (actor)|Kavin]], [[Remya Nambeesan]], [[Raju Jeyamohan]], and [[Arunraja Kamaraj]] while [[Azhagam Perumal]] and [[Ilavarasu]] play supporting roles.

==Plot==
Shiva ([[Kavin (actor)|Kavin]]), Raju ([[Raju Jeyamohan]]), and Manikandan ([[Arunraja Kamaraj]]) were all born on the same day, live in the same locality, and are childhood friends. They do not take studies seriously and roam around aimlessly. After wasting many years, they decide to start a business of their own. Their initial struggles are all real, but Mani's father leaves behind a bit of good fortune in the form of a shop in the market area, and that saves the business. The friends become wedding planning consultants. While Shiva is somewhat serious and gets orders, Raju boozes all the time. Mani, on the other hand, is innocent and a muff. The three friends also have a competitor in Ramanan ([[Ilavarasu]]), a veteran wedding planner in the locality. Now enters Shruti ([[Remya Nambeesan]]) in their lives. All three friends fall for her. From there on, their equation changes, and the friendship starts falling apart. However, Shruti reciprocates Shiva's proposal, though there is a reason for it.

''Times of India'' wrote "The director takes some time to establish the characters which make the flow of events a little slow in the first half, but the one-liners and some hilarious scenes in the second half make it a harmless entertainer".<ref>{{Cite web |title=Natpuna Ennanu Theriyuma Movie Review {2.5/5}: Critic Review of Natpuna Ennanu Theriyuma by Times of India |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/tamil/movie-reviews/natpuna-ennanu-theriyuma/movie-review/69362237.cms |website=[[The Times of India]]}}</ref>
