Anbe Vaa (English: Come, My Love) is a 1966 Indian Tamil romantic comedy film written and directed by A. C. Tirulokchandar. The film features M. G. Ramachandran and B. Saroja Devi in the lead roles, while S. A. Ashokan, Nagesh, Manorama, T. R. Ramachandran and P. D. Sambandam play supporting roles. Broadly based on the 1961 American film Come September directed by Robert Mulligan, Anbe Vaa was produced and distributed by AVM Productions. The soundtrack and background music were composed by M. S. Viswanathan while the lyrics for the tracks were written by Vaali.

Anbe Vaa was the first film produced by AVM to be shot in Eastman Color, as well as being their first big-budget production; they had previously focused only on modest-budget films. The film was also the studio and Tirulokchandar's only collaboration with M. G. Ramachandran. The film follows JB (Ramachandran), a wealthy industrialist who goes on vacation to his bungalow in Shimla, only to discover that his caretaker (Sambandam) and his wife have left for Varanasi after renting the bungalow to a family of three. The rest of the film revolves around JB's response to this situation that he finds himself in.

Principal photography for the film began in August 1965. Shooting for the film took place in Shimla, Ooty and at the hill station of Kufri. This was the second ever Tamil film to be shot at Jammu and Kashmir. Filming was completed within five months, the shortest duration for a film starring Ramachandran.

Anbe Vaa was released on 14 January 1966. The final length of the film was 4,855 metres (15,928 ft). It received positive reviews from critics, who particularly praised Ramachandran's performance, as he was known for doing mainly action-adventure films up until that point in his career. The film grossed ₹ 3.3 million at the box office, against a budget of ₹ 3 million. The film was also dubbed into Telugu, under the title Prema Manasulu.

Synopsis

Sambandam) has rented his house to a Bangalore-based couple, Punyakodi (T. R. Ramachandran) and Pappamma (T. P. Muthulakshmi), and their daughter, Geetha (B. Saroja Devi). The caretaker and his wife leave for Varanasi after taking the money for the rent, leaving the caretaker's daughter, Kannamma (Manorama), and brother-in-law, Ramaiah (Nagesh), in charge of the house and the guests. JB decides not to reveal his true identity, pretending to be JB's personal secretary Balu, and pays the rent for a place in his own house. Ramaiah, who has never met JB, takes the money and gives JB's room to Balu.
