Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaVikram's scenes in Goa were actually shot in Kerala and Mangalore.
- GoofsThe Ghani family is shown to be belonging to the Shi'ite stream of Islam. When the scion of the Ghani clan, Jahanzeb, is getting married to Noor, the Imam is reciting Su'rah Fateha. When the recital concludes, all the people present say "Ameen" in unison. However, in the Shi'ite stream, the conclusion of Su'rah Fateha elicits the response of "Alhamdulillahi Rab-il-Aalaameen" and not "Ameen".
- Alternate versionsThere are two different versions of the film, which were released simultaneously - the original Tamil language version of the film which includes two plot lines (these being the story of the aspiring rockstar David - played by Jiiva in this version, and the story of the alcoholic fisherman David, played by Chiyaan Vikram). A Hindi language version was also released, which includes three stories (these being the story of the aspiring rockstar David - played by Vinay Virmani in this version and the story of the alcoholic fisherman David, still played by Chiyaan Vikram, the additional third plot line follows another David (played by Neil Nitin Mukesh) and follows him as he works for Iqbal Ghani, a dreaded Mafia don who controls London's Muslim community through a series of illegal activities).

An introspective journey!!
I just came home after watching David and i can't help but keep thinking of the 2 davids.David is a film about two very different persons and their journey.Most of the viewers find that there was no connection between the two stories while i felt that it is indeed connected deeply and its real content lies within and it is to be understood, for those who do understand its the journey of a lifetime.
David(Vikram) is a carefree youth who was dumped by Annie,his bride to be and he lives with that scar on his heart hating marriages.His best friend Peter informs him about his love whom he is going to marry and how that girl is deaf and dumb.Problem starts when David falls for his best friend's fiancé.David's dad as the wandering spirit and Tabu are quite good including Vikram. The only drawback is that Vikram is seen drinking in all the scenes from start to end and that is somewhat tiring.
The second plot revolves around David(Jiva) who portrays an aspiring musician and at a later stage an angry youth searching for answers. Jiva is exceptional and this is his best performance till date.Nasser is very good and he evokes a sense of empathy when he come to terms with himself and with others.
Overall this film is connected in the way how both David's initially refuse to accept the way of life and find themselves at troubled waters not being able to handle pain,how they come to terms with themselves and accept life forms a major part of the story which others describe as slow and a weak screenplay.In my opinion David is one of those films that is not to be missed and i recommend this to all of those who wish to see a meaningful movie which will touch your heart.
