Putham Pudhu Kaalai

Gautam Menon's ms baskar version the best , what an acting from Bhaskar , the way he created the emotions and yet not allowed it to slip away , he brilliantly controlled it

Best acting I have seen by any actor across the world in last 5 years or so

This anthology movie is a collection of five different stories based on lockdown memories. I enjoyed the first and the last story - others didn't work for me.

It was a feel-good attempt to bring a smile on your face.

All of the stories were put together very well. Each of them with a common theme of Love, Ageism, Hope and second chances were so very well etched. Some of the stories did lacked in the substance and didn't exict but overall it was such a brezzy watch. In the other aspects such as acting, cinematography, it was so very well done.

My order goes like: 1. Rajiv Menon (Reunion) 2. Karthick subburaj (Miracle) 3. Sudha Kongara (ilamai idho idho) 4. Gvm (Avarum Nanum) 5. Sudha Manirathnam (Coffee, anyone)

Putham Pudhu Kaalai is a fresh breath of air among the recent online platform streaming releases.. 5directors joined hands for short tales of love, hope and warmth.. My favourite of the anthology is Sudha Kongara's Ilamai Idho Idho - breezy love story of a young and elder couples, well acted and delightfully narrated out of her comfort zone!

Avarum Naanum(GVM) - Heart warming tale of granddaughter(Ritu) and uncle(MS Basker aced it).. Kanna Thoothu Poda track(Govind Vasantha) in Bombay Jayshree voice is sheer bliss!

Reunion(Rajiv Menon) - Story of a reunion between 2 school mates, one of them affected by covid, moments of despair and repair.. Neatly done!

Coffee anyone(Suhasini) - Story of 3sisters and relationship with their ill mother and care taking father.. this was missing the emotional depth, fall short for me but still okayish!

Miracle(Karthik Subbaraj) - Man ends the anthology with a smart cracker! Humourous with his trademark touch of twist! Fun ride!

Overall, a brilliant attempt and feel-good narratives of people relationships amidst this covid outbreak with beautiful music score all over it, well delivered! More of this please!

Liked all the stories, last one was my most favourite.
