The story is about Aamir Khan, a rich businessman who owns a cellular phone company named Air Voice and the events surrounding his relationship with Asin. After his wife is killed, he suffers from short term memory loss. But he is out to avenge his wifes murder. In Ghajini too he has come up trumps, thanks to the superb support from the cast that includes, apart from him, Asin and Nayanthara. Excellent performance from the cast, backed up by mellifluous music by Harris Jayaraj, especially the background score, and terrific action scenes by Kanal Kannan — these are the ingredients that have made Ghajiniwhat it is: a surefire hit.Â
Murugadass, who has also penned the script, has borrowed liberally from the Christopher Nolan classic ‘Memento’. But to his credit, Murugadass has made it very much Indian with his own interpretation of the English version. Ghajini is also notable for the back and forth style that Murugadass employs to tell the story. is on the lookout for the killer gang, tattooes the names, mobile numbers, addresses, etc. on his body and takes photos with his Polaroid camera to remember things!Â
He is helped by medical student Chitra (Nayanthara). Though she wants to study Sanjay’s case in detail, her professor tells her not to do so as there is a police case against him. How he manages to get even with the gang forms the climax.Â
Cast:Â Aamir Khan , Asin Jarzyna , Jiah Khan
