Plot

On the other hand, Arjun is a journalist who lives in Chennai with his mother, elder brother, sister-in-law, and child. Arjun is passionate about his work and aspires to join a big media organization someday and interview the Finance Minister. In his daily hectic schedule, the one thing that Arjun is unwilling to give up is his 8-hour solid sleep cycle, which is precious to him. However, as destiny favors, the families of Deepika and Arjun get married.
Arjun discovers his wife’s secret snoring problem on the couple’s first night! What happens afterward is what the whole film is about.
The hidden message behind the film
Director Anand Ravichandran has strived to deliver a crucial message to society with his film ‘Dear.’ Though the plot might seem like a romantic comedy, it has an underlying message. The film showcases the fact that no individual is born and raised flawlessly.

The lead actors, GV Prakash and Aishwarya Rajesh delivered commendable performances. Kaali Venkat, who played the role of Arjun’s elder brother, also delivered an excellent performance.
