Gautam Menon's ms baskar version the best , what an acting from Bhaskar , the way he created the emotions and yet not allowed it to slip away , he brilliantly controlled it
Best acting I have seen by any actor across the world in last 5 years or so

With an anthology like this there are always going to favourites; for me those were the stroies that Sudha, GVM and Karthik bought to life. Although all the stories did stick with an underlying message that focuses on humans trying to redeem themselves or re-invent themselves into new begginings in the time of such devastation and loss, not all resonates on the same level.
It was a brilliant move by Sudha to tell the love story of 2 middle aged adults through young and older versions. It made me feel connected to a story in a deeper level, even though I am in my early twenties I was still able to feel the passion that brought these two people together. As a viewer it shows how powerful and energetic love makes you feel when you both whole heartedly in it and how it can easily fade with doubts and intolerance - A beatiful contrast, that doesnt say being old means you are automatically unromantic and grumpy, but instead it shows how it transforms you. It was nice to see a natural dynamic of father and son on screen that is required by the story (Jayaram and Kalidas), instead of sometimes forced and cringey duos on Kollywood screen.
GVM on the other hand made me cry for the first time since I watched Varanam Ayyaram as a 9 year old boy, and this time my whole family felt it. Both M S Bhaskar (Seriously under rated) and Ritu Varma killed their performance with ease.
The story at last Karthik S was the real stand out, it had a level of comedic element that karthik worked out flawlessly. Karthik and Bobby dynamic is yet to disappoint me. The characters were naive but yet sensible enough to feel real, while the other stories overwhelmingly focus on people who have structure to their life this focuses on the utter disfunctions of two unemployeed bachelors who are struggling to make ends meet. Even though not alot of us were affected to this extent, it subtly touches on the struggles of humans enough for you to emphathize with them.
The two stories in between by Suhashini M and Rajiv M were bit of a disappointment, they had this disconnect from the viewer that I personally know affected everyone who watched the movie with me. The story tries to tell the story of struggling old parents through the eyes of their daughters, but I feel like it could have been better for the story to be told from the parents presepctive as all three daughters just didnt feel like strong characters or rather they didnt have enought time establish them. Rajiv could have seriously considered toning it down with the cringey reciting of poems, it took me way out of the movie; made it feel more corny and cringey but still not as bad as the "Cringe Sisters" from the Suhashini movie. I really wished they spent more time with Andreas character and her addiction seems like a wasted potential.
Worth the watch just for the 3 movies that worked.

Putham Pudhu Kaalai is a fresh breath of air among the recent online platform streaming releases.. 5directors joined hands for short tales of love, hope and warmth..
My favourite of the anthology is Sudha Kongara's Ilamai Idho Idho - breezy love story of a young and elder couples, well acted and delightfully narrated out of her comfort zone!
Avarum Naanum(GVM) - Heart warming tale of granddaughter(Ritu) and uncle(MS Basker aced it).. Kanna Thoothu Poda track(Govind Vasantha) in Bombay Jayshree voice is sheer bliss!
Reunion(Rajiv Menon) - Story of a reunion between 2 school mates, one of them affected by covid, moments of despair and repair.. Neatly done!
Coffee anyone(Suhasini) - Story of 3sisters and relationship with their ill mother and care taking father.. this was missing the emotional depth, fall short for me but still okayish!
Miracle(Karthik Subbaraj) - Man ends the anthology with a smart cracker! Humourous with his trademark touch of twist! Fun ride!
Overall, a brilliant attempt and feel-good narratives of people relationships amidst this covid outbreak with beautiful music score all over it, well delivered! More of this please!

"Putham Pudhu Kaalai" is a beautiful anthology exploring human relationships set during & after the infamous lockdown of 2020. Directed by veterans and young filmmakers the movie is a blend of youth & experience. Putham Pudhu Kaalai is gentle & delicate in treatment, yet delivers its heart touching messages on love, family, relationships, compassion, optimism, understanding and bonding to name a few. It helps that the movies is written in a way that it appeals all age groups.
Cinematography is excellent throughout all five stories and forms the backbone in storytelling. Editing is very neat and has no lags despite the movie being a anthology. Production design, costumes and makeup are good too. However though good the the music does gets goofier sometimes. Screenplay is deeply engrossing and very well written to keep the viewer fully immersed. All the actors & directors have done a wonderful work, which we usually don't get to see in Tamil movies.
Overall, "Puthum Pudhu Kaalai is very progressive and a rare gem of cinema to hit Tamil screens. The movie asks all the right questions time and again, fully touching the viewers soul. Absolutely recommended and a definite must watch for all movie lovers and not only Tamil cinema fans. A complete family movie, wish they made more like these in Tamil.

Really liked the order in which the movies were arranged. Suhasini's "Coffee anyone" is just fantastic, loved it! The feel it gave, and the performance of the artists.. It was an amazing experience! And the ending by Karthik's "Miracle", just bliss..😄
