Kaadhale Nimmadhi (transl. Love itself is peace) is a 1998 Indian Tamil-language romantic drama film directed by Indhran. The film features Suriya, Murali, Jeevitha Sharma and Sangeetha in the lead roles. Raadhika, Manivannan and Nassar also play significant roles in the film, while Deva composed the film's soundtrack.

Plot

Kavitha, who is part of a large family, is to be married to Chandramohan, a lawyer. Kavita was playing with a little girl while Chandru is seen capturing photos of statues. Kavitha's brother (Nassar), who wrongly assumes both of them to be in love with each other, starts hitting Chandru. The whole family suspects Kavitha for falling in love and refuses to believe her explanation.

When Kavitha disappears from home, her family assumes Chandru of abducting her and gets him arrested. Chandramohan fights on behalf of Chandru with Kavitha revealing the actual reason. Chandramohan advises Kavitha's family to get her married to Chandru, to which they accept.

After the success of Kadhal Kottai (1996) and Kaalamellam Kadhal Vaazhga (1997), 'Sivashakthi' Pandian announced he was set to make another love story Kaadhale Nimmadhi, written and directed by Rajan, director of Solaikuyil (1989) and Malai Chaaral (1991). 'Sivashakthi' Pandian gave him the stage name of Indhran.[1] Prashanth had initially been signed on to portray the lead role, though opted out post the success of Jeans (1998), and was replaced by Suriya.[2] The débutante lead actress, Jeevitha Sharma, a fifteen-year-old at the time, was noticed by producer 'Sivashakthi' Pandian in his search for a new heroine for the film. The producer also opened a contest in Kumudam magazine to rename Jeevitha and give her a stage name to suit Tamil tastes and traditions. She was later christened as Kavitha by the producer before the film's release.[3]

Soundtrack

Soundtrack was composed by Deva and lyrics written by Arivumathi, Palani Bharathi, Ponniyin Selvan and Deva.
