The common thread you encounter is adultery. What is adult or comedy about these individual events is left to our imagination. What is outstanding about the core idea of Manmatha Leelai, a film which claims to be an ‘adult comedy’, is the lack of an idea (story is by Manivannan Balasubramaniam). The first half is entirely built on these two parallel tracks, stretched to a point beyond redemption. They are intercut to show the similar nature of the scenes, but this spoon feeding gets tiring after a point.
