Kanda Naal Mudhal (transl.From the day [I] saw [you]) is a 2005 Indian Tamil language romantic comedy film written and directed by newcomer V. Priya, who had earlier assisted Mani Ratnam. Produced by Prakash Raj under the Duet Movies banner, the film stars Prasanna and Laila, and Karthik Kumar, with Lakshmi, Revathi and Regina Cassandra in the supporting roles, with the latter making her debut with this film. The film's music was composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja. The film was released on 18 November 2005 with positive reviews.

The movie begins with two kids Krishna and Ramya who fight with each other in a marriage hall. After several years, now Krishna and Ramya, college students, meet and again lock horns with each other, during a college cultural meet. Fate brings them together in Chennai after a few years, again fighting with each other.

Meanwhile, a series of events forces Krishna's close friend Aravind to come to India from the United States to get married. His parents arrange his wedding with Ramya, who is bold, active, independent and assertive in nature, but, Ramya decides to help her younger sister's love, displays herself as a passive character before Aravind who accepts whatever her life partner feel is right.

Knowing this, Krishna tries hard to let her true character come out before Aravind. However, Aravind stalls the wedding plans and returns to the US as he finds Ramya as a person who does not think on her own and is not independent. Mistaking Krishna for influencing Aravind, Ramya again locks horns with him.

Meanwhile, same day, when Ramya returns home, she finds her sister elopes with her lover which causes her mother to trauma and end up in the hospital. Ramya mistakes Krishna behind the call of her marriage by Aravind, elopement of her sister and health of her mother. All her sorrows, she feels Krishna in the middle.

Krishna comes to the help off the family and slowly Ramya knows his true nature in helping her family that of his one, she started to love him. Krishna eventually develops an affinity towards Ramya which turns into romance between them. Though respective sisters of Krishna and Ramya smells the blossom of love between Ramya and Krishna, but, both Krishna and Ramya delay to propose to each other.

When they both decide to propose to each other, Krishna playfully calls Aravind who declares his decision to marry Ramya. The climax was expected after the closeness between Ramya and Krishna. In the end, they both come to receive Aravind at the airport, they end up in each other's arms and Aravind also feels happy for them.

Film ends on a happy note as Ramya and Krishna marry. During the marriage happening, two kids randomly fight with each other just like the first time Ramya and Krishna met at first. Aravind also locks horns with a girl in during the event
