    Excellent movie.

    Hats-off to Director Bramma and his team to select best storyline.

    Awesome screenplay.

    I loved each scene.

    All the actors performed very well and added more value to the story.

    My cried & my tears came out in many scenes. Love you so much team.

    Merlin teacher performance was top class. i can't believe she's is acting. her act is very real.

    Climax also heart touched and added more value.

    BGM also suited well.

    Loved Baratiyar song.

    God bless you all.

    Realism at its best

    There are two kind of movies. One - you go, watch, enjoy/weep, tell your friends about it; Two - You experience something, think about it, share your experience, think about it again. Kuttram Kadithal is such an experience. Handling a volatile subject like sex education and education system is a tedious task. But Bramma does it perfectly in taking the realistic cinema to a step further in explaining the current social issues. The lead actors are just perfect in their role and it makes us to forget that this is their debut performance! Songs and their picturisation is just amazing!

    Best realistic movies on the lines of kaaka muttai. But this movie will make us realize of something.

    Probably the best movie in recent times I have witnessed. Watch in theaters. Good cinema needs our support too!

    I found Kuttram Kadithal on Primevideo (orig. Tamil w/Eng. Subs).

    KK is an intense dark film, realistic and very well enacted especially by the protagonist Merlin Teacher ( brilliant performance by Radhika Prasiddha) and the auto rickshaw union leader (Pavel Navageethan) who is also the mama of the child victim Chezhiyan. The school principal and his wife are also excellent. The entire cast does justice to their characters.

    The newly married Merlin has just resumed work at school. She fills in a class for her friend who has gone to the cinema alone with her husband (minus the m-i-l). In that class, a precocious girl accuses another rather cute but mischievous boy Chezhiyan (Ajay) of kissing another girl who is whimpering. When confronted, Cheri says he didnt do anything wrong, just gave her a birthday kiss because it is her birthday. Merlin gets very annoyed at his perceived impudence and administers what is known as 'one tight slap' to the boys cheek. The puny child falls down, unconscious. Everyone is shocked and efforts to revive him are in vain. The boy is moved to a nearby clinic and as his condition deteriorates, to a big hospital. The principal (Kulothungan Udaykumar) senses there could be big trouble as the boy is fatherless and his mother is a poor auto rickshaw driver, and tells Merlin to go away with her husband Manikandan for a few days to his friends resort in Kollimalai and he will take care of everything. Merlin herself is in a state of shock, getting worse by the minute. Merlin and Manikandan are on board the bus to Kollimalai. In the meantime, Chezhiyan's mama has called in the media and the police and the principal is struggling to manage the increasingly volatile situation. Manikandan assures the policewoman in charge that he will bring Merlin back to Chennai, and they get off the bus halfway and try to get transport back. There are no Chennai buses and the by now almost depraved Merlin hails a truck to give them a lift. Manikandan is apprehensive but the truck driver is decent, listens to Merlin's story and drops them at a suitable point. Merlin is totally traumatised by guilt at this point, the couple go to the hospital to meet Chezhiyan's mother just as he is going in for surgery. Merlin holds the mother's hand and makes her slap her(Merlin's) face repeatedly. Eventually the mother (Sachu) hugs Merlin and says all she wants is her son back. No further Spoilers from me :-)))

    Smaller significant sub plots also play out in the narration.

    Overall, this is a good film touching not just the issue of child rights viz. Corporal punishment but even of the varied relationships between the characters. It is realistic, well made and certainly worth watching. Some of the music is also very good. I did fast forward a few frames every now and then but that is my habit with OTT viewing.

    Good Movie. Everybody acted very well in the movie. BGM in the movie was good. The movie was so interesting and thrilling. The movie somewhat lagged at some scenes. The movie was not at all boring. Good Movie.
