    A Heart warming X Much needed film to be watched

    A perfect remake. The lag in the beginning of the first 30 minutes of the film is much needed to narrate a whole lifestyle of two different people. The movie needed to be watched with friends and family together. No too much of commercial element, No too much of drama. The meter was perfectly maintained throughout the film. Both the Lead cast Vidharth & Karunaakaran have justified their role and portrayed an absolute art.

    Remake of malayalam movie vikruti..

    Offical remake of vikruti...vidharth acting is good..( cant compare with suraj venjaramoode perfomance in vikruti which was outstanding.).karunakaran casting is not apt compare to soubin perfomace in malayalam..decent watch..7/10.

    This movie is a National Treasure

    One of the best movies, why it has not gotten the much needed appreciation and attention it deserves. I think as society we have been corrupted by the influence of bad internet. Otherwise any person with a good sense of mind will have great appreciation for the movie. I must say the writer and director are people with goodness and kindness in their heart otherwise such a beautiful story cannot be made. We can tell the whole purpose of this movie is not to make money but to reinstate humanity in our hearts. Vidharth (the hero) deserves a national award for his impactiful performance, he was too good. Karunakaran emotes exceptionally well matching his role, hats off! The movie is of the kind that you can keep watching again and again. I watched it with my family first on a Saturday night on Prime and again next morning. I will watch it again after few months or years. You can't let go off this movie. It lingers in your mind. Only ask is - be patient while you watch. It's not a typical masala commercial movie it was made with the agenda of bringing change in our lives restoring faith in humanity specially at times where negativity prevails everywhere.

    Even my 5 year old kid liked the movie - it's that good and appeals to everyone from age 5 to 100.

    I am compelled to write this comment because I felt obligated to do. Please don't stop making movies like this. This movie is about mistakes, hope, forgiveness and goodness we must all deal with in our lives. Just love it! God bless the entire crew.

    A wonderful take on social media gratification and Humanity that survives beyond that!

    Once again Vidharth has shown us perfect depiction of a common man. This time a life of a differently abled common man who can always see everything from the shoes of other ppl as well. The climax makes us cry. The whole scene and the ppl in it! Kudos 😊

    Anyone can destroy one's credibility

    Has a good social message.

    Vidharth and Lakshmi Priya looks like a very much real couple with disabilities. Their family situation and their lifestyle is very certain to any lower middle class family in Chennai. The issues they face is also certain and have heard them from my childhood and it's always a never-ending case in the city. Neatly shown and really sympathetic performance from Vidharth.. Good job

    Karunakaran is another character where everyone is a good person and the childish or social media influence make them associated with unnecessary problems. He also did a great role and was absolutely fun with his life but his emotions were committed to great performance...

    Must watch and don't expect pure logic as it is just to share a common message and not for awards...
