Manal Kayiru 2 is a 2016 Tamil comedy-drama film directed by Madhan Kumar. The movie is a sequel to the 1982 film Manal Kayiru and stars Chaams, Delhi Ganesh, and Jagan in lead roles. The film features a supporting cast of Anjali Rao, Swathi Dixit, and Poorna. The film revolves around three friends' attempt to find the perfect bride for their troubled friend, Jagan.

The movie begins with Jagan's (Jagan) friends visiting him in the hospital where he is admitted for an accident. The friends, Subramaniam (Chaams), Kathir (Delhi Ganesh), and Mohammed (Rafeeq) all pledge to help Jagan find a suitable bride who can take care of him. However, Jagan has a list of over 100 requirements for his potential partner, making it difficult for his friends to find the right match.

The trio then meets three women, Geetha (Anjali Rao), Lavanya (Swathi Dixit), and Maya (Poorna), with whom they try to set Jagan up. Geetha is hardworking and career-driven, but Jagan feels her commitment to her job may lead to neglecting her familial duties. Lavanya, who is a social media influencer, is outgoing and modern but is dismissive of Jagan's traditional values. Maya, a medical student, is highly educated and values family life but Jagan feels she is not fun-loving enough.

The friends' attempts to help Jagan result in a series of comical mishaps and misunderstandings. The movie then takes a serious turn when Jagan meets his former crush Dhivya (Devayani), who is terminally ill. Jagan's friends come together to help fulfill Dhivya's wish of visiting a particular place before she dies. This incident helps Jagan realize the importance of finding someone to spend the rest of his life with.

The movie's climax takes place as Jagan's friends provide him with a list of their own requirements for a potential partner. This helps Jagan see that a perfect partner does not exist; instead, it's all about accepting someone for who they are.

Manal Kayiru 2's strong point is its powerful performances from the lead actors. Jagan, who usually plays comic roles, showcases his versatility as an actor. Chaams and Delhi Ganesh's performances are also noteworthy. The female leads, Anjali Rao, Swathi Dixit, and Poorna, bring a freshness to their respective roles.

The movie's music is composed by Dharan Kumar and complements the story's emotions. The songs are mainly situational, and the background score is effective. The film's cinematography and editing are adequate, as they do justice to the tone and mood of the movie.

Overall, Manal Kayiru 2 is an enjoyable family entertainer that explores the complexities of modern relationships. The movie's message is delivered effectively, reminding the audience that the most crucial aspect of any relationship is acceptance.
