The director of the film, A Guru Sekara has worked with several acclaimed figures such as K Bhagyaraj, Manicannan, and many more. Moreover, he speaks on the fact that the songs in the movie, namely Vaasamallikaari, produced by Murali Subramani have been trending.

Analysis

The film takes a lot of inspiration from several past Tamil movies. The director has cited films such as Adutha Veetu Penn, Sollamale, and many others as inspirations for the film. There is no problem with taking inspiration from the movies of the past, the problem arises when you are directly inspired by them, especially in terms of story, because you tend to reuse the same formulas, tropes, and stereotypes that come with the genre which makes the film seem outdated. This film, however, manages to balance that out with fresh talent and good music and scoring. Which is a major plus point of the film. The film is a great look at the struggle someone may face with a disability and how they find love regardless of it.

What’s There?

Bright colors
Music and dance sequences
Lots of slaps
A homage to classic Tamil movies

What’s Not There?

A clear storyline

Verdict

If you want to see a film reminiscent of early masala films, then you can watch this film. It isn’t a film that you can get deeply invested in or take much away from (except the storyline of someone finding love even though they have a disability), therefore, it can be enjoyed by not expecting too much from it. You can take away something good in the form of a good soundtrack that is enjoyed by many people.
