Story swerves

 Today I saw a biker swerve lanes. I recalled Alai Payuthey movie. In the starting scene, an accident occurs. Why is that important? We are going to learn about the couple who fights but there was extreme love before that. If this was an interesting story, would we not be interested in it chronologically? It works as a hook, a play of fate that he misses the accident, which is a detour. Eventually the truth has to be faced. How are reconciliations brought about in story? 

In Gulcemal, hero thought dead comes back after few ears. Time heals the wounds of a bitter mom and everyone accepts everyone.

Its the cliff hanging, if Shakthi will survive or not. Will the hero get a chance to reconciliate? What of she went into a coma for a while. Would he wait converted?

The heightened state of a chance of reconciliation at stake, makes for a good frame for the story. Its the rite that starts the process. If not now, then when.
