Mr House Keeping

The movie deals with generational elements in a subtle way such that it doesn't feel like the elements are forcefully mounted upon. Eventhough it has few unconvincing elements in the first act, the movie goes on smoothly from second act onwards. HB doesn't seem like a debutant. Losliya and Rayaan did their part really well. Siva sha ra as a love mentor lifted up sentimental scenes from becoming overwhelming and other comedians too. The director did an aptly enough work to neither overwhelm nor underwhelm us. And the highlight is all main characters are imperfect with their own flaws which made them relatable. Idk why it is gaining lesser attention than it deserves.

"Mr Housekeeping" is a tamil romantic comedy that offers a blend of humour and emotional moments. The film stars Hari Baskar as Honest, a young man who due to financial constraints, becomes a housekeeper in the home of his former collegemate Isai, potrayed by Losliya. Their evolving relationship forms the crux of the narrative.

"Mr. Housekeeping" is neither a disaster nor a blockbuster-it's just okay. Starring Hari Baskar in his debut, the film delivers a predictable story that feels like it belongs in the early-to-mid 2000s rather than 2025.

As someone who has followed Hari Baskar since his Jump Cuts days, it's interesting to see him transition into films. His emotional moments were good, but the comedy didn't quite land. Both he and Losliya could have shown more expressions to elevate their performances. That said, everyone in the supporting cast, including the sister, parents, and friends, did well.

Losliya, whom I haven't seen since Bigg Boss, was a solid choice for the heroine-she looked beautiful and fit the role. The background score was good, but the songs? Meh. Cinematography was decent, but overall, the movie might struggle with the newer generation, who will likely roast it for its outdated storytelling.

Since this is Hari Baskar's first film, it serves as a learning curve. The movie works in parts, but for a stronger impact, it needed fresher storytelling and better execution.

Straight to the point. Waste of time. Nothing in the movie is interesting. Could have selected a better heroine and hero.

Hero just do circus gymnastics. Heroine just dressing up without showing importance to the acting.

Very weak script. Irritating music which repeats the same music throughout the movie.

Rayaan alone looks good and he could've dominated the script with someother heroine.

Though he don't have much role his appearance looks pleasant on the screen.

Horrible heroine selection who just shows in fancy dresses but least on acting or in script.

Just don't think people will see only the dress and other stuffs. We are here to give importance for the storyboarding.

Absolutely fantastic movie. Good work on screenplay. Feel good music. Worth for money to watch. Mr. Housekeeping is a heartwarming Tamil movie about a young man named Ramu who finds himself unemployed and struggling to make ends meet. Desperate for work, he takes on a job as a housekeeper for a wealthy family, despite facing ridicule from his friends and family. Initially clumsy and unfamiliar with household chores, Ramu's sincerity and dedication win over the family members. He forms a special bond with their young son, teaching him valuable life lessons. Through his hard work and positive attitude, Ramu not only transforms the household but also discovers his own hidden talents and self-worth. The movie celebrates the dignity of labor and the importance of finding joy in unexpected places.

Mr. Housekeeping is a typical love story told with modern-day references, starring OG YouTuber Haribaskar and Losliya. This marks Haribaskar's debut film, and he has done a commendable job. Losliya also performs well and fits into her role nicely.

It's a bit difficult to separate the positives and negatives in this film because everything feels mixed. Let's start with the writing: the first 10 to 15 minutes are quite dull, and it takes time for the story to pick up. After a certain point, you start enjoying the film, but then again, some scenes feel boring and make you lose interest. However, just when you think you're zoning out, something pulls you back in. It's a strange rhythm not quite an emotional rollercoaster, but more like a blend of poorly written parts with some genuinely good moments.

Why do I say this? Because the film does have some well-thought-out set pieces, and during those moments, it actually feels quite engaging. But the build-up and payoff for those scenes aren't written effectively, which reduces their impact.

If the writer had discussed the script with more people and revised it, this could have turned out to be an excellent film. Why? Because everything in this story happens for a reason. For example, the protagonist goes for a job there's a reason. He meets the girl again also for a reason. The intent is clear, but the execution needed refinement. Still, it's a decently written film overall.

In terms of production, the team has done a good job. If they had paid more attention to staging, blocking, and colour palette, the film would have looked even better visually. That said, it's a new team with a limited budget, and they've done a brilliant job considering those constraints.

Overall, Mr. Housekeeping is a good film to watch with your family. It's not perfect, but it has heart, and the effort from a new team deserves appreciation.
