Azhagiya Theeye (spelt onscreen as Azhagiye Theeyae) is a 2004 Indian Tamil-language romantic comedy film written and directed by Radha Mohan that stars Prasanna and Navya Nair (in her Tamil debut). The film was produced by Prakash Raj, who also played a significant character in the film, while Ramesh Vinayagam composed the music. It released to generally positive reviews. The film was a commercial success. The film's name is inspired by the song of the same name from Minnale (2001). The movie was an inspiration for the 2006 Telugu film Happy and the Bengali remake Bolo Na Tumi Aamar.

Later Chandran hatches a plan by which he meets Aravind at a restaurant and tells him that Nandhini is madly in love with him. And the big twist is that Aravind does not walk away and instead stays back to see that the ‘love birds’ get united which upsets Chandran's plans and his life.
