Finally some good news from Tamil cinema! Tired of all those action-packed masala films. Would love to take my whole family to a wholesome entertainer. Kalyani Anil debut - hope she brings freshness. Fingers crossed! 🤞
Interesting to see Pandiraj as dialogue writer. His films like 'Veyyil' and 'Pasanga' had such relatable characters. Hope the comedy tracks don't go overboard - many family films spoil with forced humour. But first schedule completed smoothly is a good sign!
As someone who appreciates Indian cinema from abroad, it's refreshing to see a film that focuses on family values rather than just box office numbers. Jayaram's charm is timeless. Looking forward to seeing Asha Sarath too - she's an underrated talent.
Pandiraj as dialogue writer... hmm. Hope it's not just nostalgia bait. We need fresh stories, not recycled formulas. But giving benefit of doubt - if it's anything like his early work, we might get something special. Also, Siddu Kumar as composer? Interesting choice!
So happy to see more family entertainers returning! After OTT took over, we lost that theater experience with entire families laughing together. Jayaram's comic timing is unmatched. First schedule done - waiting for release date announcement! 🎉
