Definitely not my cup of tea but somewhat I liked it however I can't say I enjoyed it thoroughly. Film focuses on youth festival where people from different background participate and compete against each other. If you'd participated in such events or atleast been a spectator for dental years and you've enjoyed it then this film is for you. Probably this could evoke a nostalgia in you wanting to revisit your childhood otherwise film would end up as a boring yarn. Still I would say not to leave movie without watching climax because that's the best part of the film. Climax was totally enlightening and appealing to eyes. All the actors were amateurs barring a few but have done a good job though nothing outstanding. Music and lyrics was the soul of the film and was able to convey many things that film aiming to accomplish. My personal favorite were Kadavathoru thonirapu and Neramayi. Definitely top contender for the year. Regardless of the outcome I still appreciate Abrid shine for coming up with such different concepts after every film. + ve: Music, climax, acting, some scenes were good. -ve: lethargic pace, poetic style narration could not be digestible for everyone. Had the film was told in a more engaging manner then I would've rated it high, well for now 6/10
