Paranthu Po / Fly Away

Ram, the talented craftsman of heartfelt storytelling, takes a refreshing detour from his usual emotionally layered narratives here. Known for his exploration of parent-child dynamics in his previous films, this time he approaches the theme with a much lighter, humorous and endearing tone.

At its core, Paranthu Po is a breezy road trip featuring a delightful duo-a child and his man-child father. The journey they embark upon is filled with whimsical incidents and heartfelt moments, all captured with visual charm and a narrative simplicity that feels both genuine and fresh. There's no room for negativity or antagonistic characters here. The film flows with warmth, positivity, and a sincere attempt to make you smile without being preachy or overly sentimental.

Mithul, the child actor, is the highlight of the movie. He gives a natural and charming performance without being annoying. Shiva and Grace Antony also do a great job with their roles. Anjali and Aju Varghese perform well in their parts too.

One of the standout aspects of Paranthu Po is its musical storytelling approach. While it may take a few minutes to adjust to this rhythm. Once you're in sync, it becomes an enjoyable and immersive experience.

This film is a delightful ride for both parents and children. It truly flies high.

"Paranthu Po" is exactly the kind of film you'd cherish, Rishi-it teaches the value of slowing down, sharing real-time with loved ones, and listening more closely to little voices. If you watch it with family or friends, let yourself be guided by the warmth and simplicity it offers. It's the perfect blend of entertainment and gentle life lessons-just the kind of fun and emotionally enriching experience you're looking for.

Parandhu Po - Such an exciting movie especially the child artist - 'Mithul Ryan' as 'Anbu' did a such an excellent job of acting in lead role and full credits to him for show casing his acting skills and he stole the show completely. 'Shiva' as 'Gokul' and 'Grace Antony' as 'Glory' made up a pretty good pair and their acting was on top notch in this particular movie subject and suited them very well.

As parents of 'Anbu', the bonding between them and the way they both took care of the kid in odd age group as he was naughty and made it interesting with cinematic touch and kept us very engaging. I like the way this movie is taken which is completely light-hearted and very interesting to see how life should be approached with lots of positivity and how kids take us in their own beautiful path. Other actors Anjali, Vijay Yesudas did a pretty good supporting role. Director Ram has given a gem of a movie to the audience. Its a family subject but very well suited for all age groups.

Overall, a very refreshing and exciting movie for the audience to enjoy and relive the moments of the movie and connected us with reality.

Normally "Ram" movies will be more realistic way of making and little bit more touch of tragedy in the screenplay. But this one stands out by staying close to reality but with the touch of warm, light-hearted, feel-good tone.

The kid and Siva steals the show. Anjali family is the perfect example for idealistic family, almost dreamlike household

The film is simple at its core, with events that unfold in a way that leans more toward fantasy. It draws us into a world we wish we could live in - and that's where the movie truly succeeds.

The highlight of the movie is "climax end note" and the way the kid tries to stop Siva's smoking.

Definitely worth the watch in theatre, with kids.

Paranthu Po is a pure musical journey filled with humor, emotions, and deep understanding. It's a heartfelt film that resonates deeply with the audience.
