Anbe Vaa (English: Come, My Love) is a 1966 Indian Tamil-language 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. Partly 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 songs were written by Vaali.
The film follows JB (M. G. 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.
Anbe Vaa was the first film produced by AVM to be shot in Eastmancolor, as well as being their first colour production. The film was also the studio and Tirulokchandar's only collaboration with Ramachandran. The film's principal photography began in August 1965 and shooting took place in Shimla, Ooty, and at the hill station of Kufri, with some scenes filmed at Valparai.
