Twist in interval No cinematic fights irritating love scenes Simple comedy with on flow comedy No sexual scenes so we can watch with family Good climax with good finishing

Minus : Some Loop holes Songs making slow down the movie Some cinematic scenes Little bit lagging in second half

Totally without expecting much we can watch this movie with family So good movie to watch family and children I am recommending this surely we can watch this movie one time.

Keerthy Suresh in the titular role is reason enough to watch this film. With a strong ensemble of performers, it's debatable how the movie holds up as a whole.

The story is set in the 1960s, where a rebellious Tamil girl, guided by her strong ideologies and principles, eventually succumbs to patriarchal pressure as her grandfather nears the end of his life.

It's a fun and satirical take on the political climate of Tamil Nadu in the 1960s, particularly the anti-Hindi imposition protests. This sentiment still holds true to some extent today, with the state maintaining its resistance to Hindi. However, the weak screenplay causes the film to lag in many places.

Keerthy Suresh is in her element, delivering the solid performance one would expect from her. Kudos to the unconventional casting of Ravindra Vijay, who excels in his role. MS Bhaskar as the grandfather is decent, while Ismath Banu's well-written character adds organic humor to the film. Rajeev Ravindranathan and Devadarshini Sukumaran play familiar roles, as seen in their previous films, and master these characters.

Special mention goes to the art department, costumes, and cinematography, which bring the era to life in a believable way. The songs are average, and the comedic sequences work in parts. However, multiple plot threads feel too cinematic, reducing the believability of the story. The climax, in particular, feels overly dramatic and rushed.

As a debut work from director Suman Kumar, it's a decent effort, though it falls short of being truly gripping. Overall, it's an average movie, suitable for a lazy afternoon watch.

It flopped in the theaters . No I know why.

Saw it on zee5 last evening.

Story and execution very poor.

Keerthy acting is good. Other actors also ok.

Too long for such a silly story. Tested my patience.

Comedy is good at only some places.

Pace is very laggy and slow at various points. Writing could have been better.

Treatment is also like an old movie of 70s or 60s. Does not have the modern look and style. Maybe only old people might watch it.

No wonder Malayalam cinema is delivering so much better films nowadays. Tamil is only commercial masala or headless chicken like films like this one.

Waste of time.

Good time pass, lighthearted drama. Some dialogs are very nice, and the comic moments worked out well in required places. Even though they tried hard in good making, the serial type of background score spoiled the fun.

The first and last few scenes are unnecessarily stretched. If they trimmed down around 20 mins, this would be a crisp watch. Because of these 20 mins dragging, the viewers lose focus and search for remote button...

The social message on Feminism is carried forward from starting to end. They used Hindi for marketing and some fun moments.... if they added more comic and stressed message, it would have given good impact, now it passed as another light drama...

One time watchable.

I thought mostly youngsters go to cinema nowadays and cinema is made for them. This one turned out to be made for 60 year olds!

Very outdated kind of feeling and story. Retro but not gripping. 2-3 tamil films released around the same time, I think this one only flopped badly. Feel sorry for the producers but they should have taken better decision. Raayan was so good. Even demonte colony was better I hear.

Very slow pace. Keerthy acting was ok but wasted. She looks good in saree and all but then the story and film has to keep you awake also! That was not happening with this one. One gentleman in our row even left mid way. Hope they make better movies.
