Big Boss Raju's acting is excellent. Nice comedy timing, and very spontaneous.
Excellent New age cinema...Congrats Team. Everybody acted well, the comedy scenes are very new, and the cast pulled off this comedy in a very sensible way. The theater was in laughter for the most part. As mom, Saranya and Devadarshini complement each other, and they added to the true feelings of each mother these days. Nice star cast. Saranya elevates the movie and laughter all around. She adds dimension to the movie and blends in with the Gen-Z rom-com. Excellent performance by all and must watch in theaters. Great job once again.

Bun Butter Jam - a warm slice of love, dreams, and nostalgia. A soulful journey that stays with you. It's perfect for a relaxed family evening or a thoughtful solo watch.
It tells a story that reflects today's youth, while also staying deeply connected to our cultural roots. Every frame is filled with authenticity, making us genuinely appreciate the heartfelt effort of the entire team behind the film.
Raju's emotions come through not just in his words, but in his expressions and silences - there's a natural magnetism in his performance. Though the screenplay starts off slow, the second half truly finds its emotional core and depth. Themes like self-discovery, friendship, modern love, and emotional maturity are portrayed in a way that feels very real and relatable to the younger generation.
The portrayal of friendship and relationships stands out - not just their beauty, but also their flaws are shown with honesty. It all feels so natural and heartfelt. Humor is blended in just the right amount, creating a warm, glowing emotional experience throughout the film.
Grab your popcorn πΏπΏπΏ- and your emotions - this one's worth every bite.

I recently watched Bun Butter Jam, and I really enjoyed it! The film had a simple but sweet story that felt very refreshing. I liked how it showed the bond between friends and the connection between parents and their children.
Raju Jeyamohan did a great job in his first lead role-he was very natural and relatable. The female leads Aadhiya and Bhavya also acted really well, and their chemistry with Raju made the movie even more enjoyable.
There were many light and funny moments, especially in the college scenes, and I liked how the emotions were balanced with comedy. The songs were also nice, especially Kaajuma, and also diya song which I've been listening to again!
What I appreciated most was how the movie felt real-like something that could happen around us. It's a feel-good film with no over-dramatic scenes, just honest storytelling.

Bun Butter Jam is like that chaotic sandwich you make at midnight-ridiculously tossed together but oddly satisfying. Raju Jeyamohan swaps his Bigg Boss microdrama for college hijinks, rubbing elbows with influencer crushes and emotionally constipated moms who still think "Instagram" is a new kitchen appliance. It starts as generational gap cliche overload (cue moms googling "reels" while kids zone out), but when the film finally chills and the kids just hang out, it morphs into a breezy, if slightly stale, romcom with enough teen angst and sandwich metaphors to make you giggle. Not quite Michelin star material, but charmingly cheesy-just like your midnight snack.
