    Beautiful Story

    "Velicham" is an incredible musical emotional short film that touched my soul. The movie begins with the love and care of siblings who live in a dump yard. Despite their surroundings, their relationship is so beautiful that even the dirt couldn't hide their shine.

    "Velicham" continues with amazing music that blends into the situation. The camera work and direction are also incredible, making it feel like we walked along with the characters. Truly, an amazing short film that evoked tears, smiles, and embraced positivity.

    Speaking of performances, both Bujjimma and her brother lived their roles authentically. Thennal and Davinchi, how can someone be so perfect in their characters? Well done, guys. A real shoutout to the entire team of "Velicham."

    Wonderful story and making

    "Velicham" is a compelling short film that artfully explores the interplay of light and darkness, both visually and thematically. The cinematography is exquisite, capturing the nuances of emotion through shadows and illumination. The narrative unfolds gracefully, drawing the audience into a reflective journey. The talented cast delivers nuanced performances, adding depth to the emotional core of the story. Despite its brevity, the film skillfully explores themes of love and loss, leaving viewers with a thought-provoking experience that lingers long after the credits roll."Velicham" is a poetic exploration of human resilience, skillfully presented in a short yet impactful format.

    A warm hug from Innocence

    The plot is incredibly touching, and without a doubt, the child actors in the short film do an outstanding job. You can relate to the story; it is something that could have possibly happened in the past and will again happen in the future. The lives of two young siblings and their strong bond are portrayed magically by Sanu K. Chandran and Nidhin Salgunan.

    The world is a beautiful yet cruel place. Innocence is not a virtue anymore; it is more of a trait that pushovers have. In Velicham, the siblings are being pushed over to the edge by the representatives of our society just because they are from an unfortunate walk of life. Don't miss out on this intense yet heartwarming Tamil short film.
