OK, I admit it right away - I understood almost no dialogue in Avvai Shanmugi. I watched it in the theatre in India with some friends. However, Kamala Hassan is a great actor and the plot seemed evident enough (and my friends helped).
I had not seen the American Mrs. Doubtfire that this is based on, so I cannot make the obvious comparison and contrast. However, Kamala Hassan made this movie a treat to watch. The movie progressed a little slowly, but most every scene was funny. The plot is relatively evident, even a non-Tamil speaker will enjoy it.
If you get an opportunity to see this movie, I would give it a try. If you have already seen Mrs. Doubtfire, you might be interested to see how the Tamil movie industry dealt with this theme.

As usal Superb comedy movie from Kamal Hassan and KS Ravikumar. Songs and BGM were also good. Superb Movie.
90s belonged to Kamal undoubtedly. What an actor! Great comedy for family audience.
Kamal Hassan acting makeup voice excellent. No actor in the world can ever do such things in screen. One of the best movie of Indian cinema. Don't just read review but watch the movie.
It was a good experience to watch a kamalhassan movie. The film was very different from the rest of the indian movies. The best part of the movie was the acting of Kamalhassan, that's fantastic. Great outburst of his professional acting.
