35-Chinna Katha Kaadu

When was the last time you saw a film that truly deserved a 5 star rating? Honestly, I can't recall one. "35" is a movie that deserves a special place in cinema history for generations to enjoy.

Overall, "35" feels like a film that embodies the warmth, love, and determination of a mother. It's great to see meaningful films like this making their way into our lives. In a world where many movies are just noise and lack depth, "35" feels like a breath of fresh air. It offers a healing experience that reminds us of the importance of family and love. In a neighborhood filled with distractions, this film is like a blissful sanctuary..

A heartfelt salute to the '35' team for reminding us that motherhood is more than just giving life, it's about sharing love, strength, and the courage to face the world.

"35- Chinna Katha Kaadu" is one of the most heartwarming and feel-good films I've seen in recent times. Set in Tirupati, it beautifully captures the emotional journey of a mother helping her son overcome academic struggles. Nivetha Thomas shines in a deeply moving role, and the film's honest storytelling, soulful music, and strong performances make it a must-watch. A simple yet powerful reminder of how love, support, and belief can change lives and how mother is a best teacher in the world. This movie reminds me school mathematics (tough nut to crack). If you enjoy simple, emotionally-driven stories about real people and real problems, this is worth your time - especially for parents, teachers, and students.

The film has a lot going for it from the get go. Casting and acting are mostly spot on. This is a great family movie. Where it really let's down is how the story lacks continuity at points and how it is rather stretched in some areas. The translation also potentially killed part of the story - I watched the tamil version which had lengthy dialogues that were very non-tamil sounding (which is the only giveaway that it's not a tamil movie).

The biggest sell for this movie is how it carries that village like setting all throughout without making it a part of the plot.

Jokes apart, an anurag kashyap style directing would've done some wonders.

Just wanted to go to movie and decided randomly to go to this one.

Wasn't expecting any thing out of this movie and to my surprise, such an amazing movie, superb direction with a good story line and very good acting, special acknowledgement to the hero of the movie "Nivetha Thomas" yes she is the main protagonist of the movie.

The story line and the direction is so realistic, you will be amazed.

We even didn't want the interval break, wanted the movie to contiune.

What surprised me even more is, not many audience was there in the hall, which promoted me to write this review, do.

Arun bring back memories of the kid from Tare Zameen Par.

Watch it, Thanks Rana for getting this movie to us.

This one is heartwarming. In the junk that TFI usually puts out, this is taaza fresh.

Nivedita Thomas has that aura. From the very first frame till the end she pull you in like a familiar face, a character that is radiant and spectacularly brought to life on screen. She's mom, the teacher and everything that this movie needed, showing us the simple life of a family from tirupati. Vishwadev's performance as a father was equally well done and shan't be spoken less of. The chemistry between these two characters on screen was just adorable.

The love and warmth that each character brought to life is lifelike. No character gets left behind. Everyone has a story and they all deal with something - something you hardly see in a telugu film.

Arundev has a bright future, his Charm and ability to perform in front of the camera came quite naturally to this champ.

Absolutely loved this movie. I didn't want these characters' story to end.

Thanks to the entire team that brought this movie to life.

9/10.
