Madhavan and Jyothika Hey watch out! After a long break here comes a real entertainer, Dum Dum Dum. A realistic rustic love story mingled with humor and good music. Madhvan, after Alai Payuthe, gives a fine performance and Jyothika does no less. Dum Dum Dum is a film, which blends the rustic fare with the city slickers' romantic fare in right proportions.

Madhvan, (Aditya) a city slicker's marriage is fixed by his dad in the village to Jyothika (Ganga), a village belle. He is not happy with it, as he wants to marry a city girl and that too after falling in love. On the other hand, Jyothika also is not interested, as she wants to marry only after completing her engineering in the city.

The way they both try to stop the wedding by playing tricks is hilarious. In spite of their trying hard, their tricks fail. Luckily, a dispute over a card game on the eve of the wedding stops the marriage. Both of them feel relieved and happy.

Madhavan and Joythika And then, Jyothika comes to the city and starts staying with Manivannan, a lawyer friend of her dad (Murali). Here she meets Madhvan once again and their romance blooms. But this time, the feud between their families comes in their way. After a few hurdles the families patch up and the lovers unite.

The film has not much of a storyline but the director scores in the screenplay and makes an impact extracting good performances from the artistes. Karthikaraja's music, Ramji's camera and good choreography add to the film's entertainment value.
