Chithha

We could call this movie as a "Pan Universe" movie. It reminds Amir Khan's Satyamavey Jayate (about "Touch" episode) . Thanks to Siddarth and all in the team on and off the screen. This movie can be released in all States, It requires no dubbing. The director demonstrates "how to screenplay a sensitive subject ". This movie is a learning experience to all movie makers. Lesson to all men and women to learn about "how to teach their youngsters about 'Touch'. Even a man's honest behavior could turn bad in others' eyes. Siddarth deserves a big hug from every citizen for showing social responsibility. Truth Prevails.

The film proceeds through Eeaswaran's search for the disappearance of his brother's daughter, whom he raised as his own daughter, and the mystery surrounding it.

The film, which started as a family drama, changes the genre in a great way and sets the incidents to change the movie to crime and mystery. It is very haunting and engaging until the climax, and the film ends with an open ending for the audience.

Movie deals with sexual assault,trauma and how these things continue in our present society and the backlash of not providing proper education, guidance and awareness of these issues.

A must watch movie.

One of the greatest movie released in 2023.

The reason why i am saying this movie is very important for our society..Any age people must watch this movie especially younger females...It is important to educate our children about good and bad touch..Even if our dad or brother touch us in wrong way we need to address that issue..This movie emphasises about that in 1st half and 2nd half i cried when the small girls were abused by villain plenty not one character..SIDDARTH is a perfomer and i think this movie is one of the biggest blockbuster of the year and high rated movie by critics and audience which i think the love for this movie is surreal..Well done director and yes the female characters were good too i loved them so natural acting and well done team..Always protect our kids,females their safety is important..

I enjoyed this flick from Siddharth and the movie kept me very engaging till the end. The child who played 'Sundari' deserves an applause- she was great throughout the movie. Siddharth had a good role, which could have slipped from his hands easily in the movie, but he executed it perfectly.

It's good to see Nimisha Sajayan get a good start in Kollywood, she was incredible throughout but the real hero of the movie is the child actress who played the role 'Sundari'. She is the life of this film.

The production design was perfect and it did have an impact throughout the film.

I would have gone for an 8 or 9 stars but the last 30 minutes were not that smoothly executed. I guess the director rushed to wrap it up. This is easily noticeable in the film and the screenplay was a bit sloppy in the final moments. Keeping these things aside, this was a very nice film. Hope Siddharth(he was the producer of the movie) will take initiative in producing good films like this in the future.

The best thing about Chithha is how it handles the sensitive topic of child sexual abuse. It's not something anyone can sit down for, without trigger warnings, and when it unfolds on screen, I could sense S U Arun Kumar's evolution as a filmmaker. He uses the first act to establish an emotional connect with the lead characters - Ees (Siddharth), his girlfriend Sakthi (Nimisha Sajayan), his niece Sundari (Sahasra Shree), and sister-in-law (Anjali Nair). The writing is layered and takes you through the proceedings in no hurry. One devastating incident leads to a lot of physical and emotional scars, but before you've fully recovered from it, you're subjected to yet another.

The performances from all four key characters (plus the two friends of Ees') are top-notch. I did NOT see Siddharth in the film - I only saw Ees, Sundari's extremely loving and protective uncle. The little girls are fantastic too, making you smile at their adorable antics in the beginning, and later, effectively conveying the trauma of living (or having lived) through such a prolonged, abusive nightmare. Just when I began to wonder why Nimisha Sajayan signed up for this role (of a typical love interest), the writing lets her make a very bold statement in a scene that arrives close to the end. Of course, there are a few other moments as well, but this one leaves you the most affected. Arun Kumar also treats it with the urgency and tension of a thriller in the latter stages, making you want to know what happens at each juncture.

As opposed to the rest of the film, the finale takes some commercial liberties from both writing and performative standpoints. While I absolutely loved the way the director chose to end the film (i.e. When the director's card showed up), the tail-end sort of undoes that effort. All things considered, I'm glad Siddharth chose to fund and act in this venture. It's certainly going to fetch him a lot of acclamation, and all of it is deservedly so.

P. S. I couldn't help but hoot at the random and unexpected mass moment featuring the lady in the shared auto-rickshaw.
