Something we don't notice in our daily civil life, something we get to see only if the situation arises or if you live in a caste infested area. Amazing how this movie brings it out in the open, compel us to think and also keeps us engaged throughout.
The story is not complex, yet it brings you to the edge of your seat at moments.
It is filled with symbolism, especially a scene where it symbolizes that casteism commits suicide. Beautiful.
It doesn't show oppression solely by creating sympathy and showing the oppressed class getting further and further oppressed unlike in some movies. You feel for the hero, you're with him and cheer for him.
Overall, it's an important part of movie history about casteism.

Master piece movie of the year
Really liked the movie
One of the best film in Indian cinema about caste system and stuff, every Indian must watch this film, hats off to the director. Pride of Tamil cinema.
I don't want to be spoiler by saying the whole story. Pariyerum perumal is not a film. It's a life. This is a film about a castism. But this is not a film only about castism. The film explores our daily life of rural people who are crushed by a higher class people. This film explains whatever the rural people do for there development they can't reach their destination in this society. First of all hatsoff to the director MARISELVARAJ for given this wonderful art.
This film make the audience to journey with a whole characters in this film. The film turned in to good film only by good written work, good cinematography, good music and all the good technical aspects. And this film deserved all this things. And again i don't want speak more about this film. This is the milestone film of tamil cinema. so the audience must suppport this type of films instead of dumb commercial films.
A simple, engaging story with heavy content.
Big kudos to the team Mari Selvaraj, Santhosh Narayanan, Pa. Ranjith , Kathir, Anandhi, Yogi Babu for giving this gem. Please do watch it in theatres.
We need to watch these kind of movie in theater so these movies will be evaluated and gain more profit.
Such a great performance by all actor but little more credit goes to Director.
Santhose Narayanan your ecstasy music made me mesmerized
Lastly thanks Ranjith for producing, even it is not produced now someone in tamilnadu would have done coz we r little knowledgable
