ABCD (film)

ABCD is a 2005 Indian Tamil-language romance film written and directed by Saravana Subbiah. The film stars Shaam, Nandana, Sneha, and Aparna. It was released on 12 August 2005.

Anand, an MBA Chartered Accountant graduate, runs in search of a job in Chennai. He stays in the house of an old man, whose daughter Chandra returned home following the death of her husband, who had been mistreating and abusing her since their wedding. She slowly gets attracted to Anand, as he is polite and humble, the one thing he misses from his husband.

Meanwhile, while travelling in a bus, he meets a woman named Bharati, whom he lost his academic certificates to. Bharati is a revolutionary woman with practical ideas and looks after her whole family. She has even canceled her wedding, as the groom expects a lumpsum amount as a dowry. When Bharati helps Anand find his certificates, they become friends, and Bharati starts developing feelings for him.

Anand also comes across Divya Daisy, an orphaned girl brought up by a church who finds a job and settles in life all out of her own efforts. Anand rescues her after an accident and rushes her to a hospital. Over time, they become close friends, eventually leading to Divya opening her heart to Anand.

Parallel narration is the comedy track of Muthukumar, a conductor of a bus where Anand and Bharati meet often.

At a point, Bharathi expressed her love for him. But Anand refuses to accept it as he considers Bharati as his true friend. Just like Bharati, Divya Daisy also confronted her love for Anand with him, as she was attracted by his good qualities. But Anand refuses to accept this proposal too, and makes her understand that helping her at the accident was an act of humanity. Anand clarifies that he was in love with Chandra. Anand unites with Chandra, and he wants to give her a peaceful life through this marriage when her first marriage was an unsuccessful one.

After his directorial debut Citizen (2001), Saravana Subbiah announced that his next film would be titled ABCDE, starring Shaam. The "E" stood for Eashwari, but the character was later removed, and the title was shortened to ABCD. The letters stand for the main characters of the film. ABCD continues the trend of casting three heroines opposite the hero that started with Autograph and would continue with Vallavan. Shaam found it difficult to portray a mature man in the film, saying he was a "very energetic, active guy" like in his earlier films.

The soundtrack was composed by D. Imman.
