The title poster is so intriguing! A man falling with money flying out... looks like a thriller about greed or a heist gone wrong. Excited to see Malavika Mohanan in a Kumararaja film.

Ilaiyaraaja and Nirav Shah? The technical team is just wow. But I hope the story lives up to the hype. Sometimes these high-profile projects get lost in their own style. Fingers crossed!

Vijay Sethupathi in a Kumararaja film is a dream combo. Sethupathi can pull off any complex character. And Raj B Shetty too? This is going to be a festival for serious cinema lovers.

Interesting that the story is by Andrew Louis, not Kumararaja himself. Kolaigaran was a tight thriller. Hope they blend his writing with Kumararaja's unique direction style well.

The title 'Pocket Novel' suggests a compact, gripping story. Perfect for Kumararaja. Started with a pooja in Vadapalani - nice to see the traditional touch. Wishing the whole team the best! 🙏
