Literally meaning " I am a fly", Naan Ee or Eega is nothing you would have seen ever before.
Sudeep, a wealthy businessman who is also a womanizer, has his eyes set on a girl who came to him for donation for her charity. Bindu is a simple girl who runs a school and does micro-art, i.e. carving rice, pencil tips etc. Nani is the boy next door who is completely in love with her for two years now. Bindu while playing hard to get also likes him.
When Sudeep realizes that Bindu is completely oblivious to his advances because of Nani, he kills Nani. Now comes the most exciting part. In a Harry Potter-esque turn of events, Nani's soul latches onto the living object in sight, which happens to be fly eggs. And Nani is reborn as a fly...
He ends up with Sudeep and instantly recognizes him as the killer. Rest of the story is his revenge against Sudeep and his bid to protect Bindu from his amorous advances.
I would say its a feat for Indian cinema for the absolutely fantastic execution of this fantasy drama. The animation is superb. The way it's woven with the rest of the story is remarkable. There are literally no loose ends and after the first twenty minutes the movie is very fast past paced. Compared to other recent sci-fi / fantasy stories like Ra.One, 7th Aum Arivu etc. Eega is ahead by miles both in story, creativity and execution.
Sudeep (Sudeep) and Samantha (Bindu) have both done a good job. Sudeep especially plays the villain tormented by a fly without much melodrama. though the true hero of the story, needless to say is the "Eega" ;)
I saw the movie without subtitles and really enjoyed.
Must Watch.
