Had skipped it in the theaters as it looked like a boring film.
Now it released on zee5tamil. Family was watching , so I also sat down. Not only it is boring, it is like a old tv serial with some old sentiments etc.
I dont know what these studios think nowadays. Who wants to see such a small story dragged into 2+ hours?
Zee5 has many other good films. Do a favour to yourself and watch any of these.
Someone told me kantara people made these movie. Kantara though not in tamil was 10/10. This one even though tamil, even 3/10 is too much for me to give!
Keerthy should choose better movies. Hope her next film is better.

Good time pass, lighthearted drama. Some dialogs are very nice, and the comic moments worked out well in required places. Even though they tried hard in good making, the serial type of background score spoiled the fun.
The first and last few scenes are unnecessarily stretched. If they trimmed down around 20 mins, this would be a crisp watch. Because of these 20 mins dragging, the viewers lose focus and search for remote button...
The social message on Feminism is carried forward from starting to end. They used Hindi for marketing and some fun moments.... if they added more comic and stressed message, it would have given good impact, now it passed as another light drama...
One time watchable.

The trailers gave an impression that its about Hindi imposition in TN. The movie doesnt make a direct point on any subject. Keerthi Suresh is an independent thinking woman who leads an agitation to close a Hindi sabha in her village along with her grandfather. She is also a prolific writer who writes under a male pseudonym. Situations change where she has to take a Hindi exam to earn a promotion to stop an impending marriage. The comedy works thanks to Keerthy Suresh, Devadarshini and Ismath Bhanu. But you cannot understand what the director is supporting here. All the North Indian characters speak Tamil. A character called Ranganathan is pledging everything he has, just to get the Hindi sabha in the village open. Why?
The same sabha conducts the exams that Keerthy has to take, that she had violently closed(wonder who will conduct it) but conveniently she has to prepone and take it at a different location. In the end it all leads to a chaotic marriage situation where she talks about the compulsion of culture. Then we have a dialogue where she says she is not against Hindi but imposition of Hindi. But still won't allow the Sabha to be opened. How does opening a Sabha lead to imposition? She had to slyly find someone to coach her for the exam, why not allow a Sabha which can do the same publicly? Overall the director is too cowardly to take a clear stance or present the arguments on both sides clearly. I am quite surprised that this was the same gentleman who wrote such a brilliant Season 2 of Family Man.

It started off slow, but soon the whole theatre was cracking up! A true wait-for-it! Kayal and her candid non-mind-voice reminds me of my own daughter! Great capture of the tamizh life without the rhetoric. And some scenes had everyone at the edge of their seats rooting for the victory of minor crime! Hilarious. A must watch for the whole family... aptly from the writer of Family Man! I particularly loved the music... and the effortlessly kickass lyrics right from the beginning! If anything I wish there were more gags and puns!
Good one SK... now that we know and love the characters, I'm totally waiting for the sequel featuring kama...

It flopped in the theaters . No I know why.
Saw it on zee5 last evening.
Story and execution very poor.
Keerthy acting is good. Other actors also ok.
Too long for such a silly story. Tested my patience.
Comedy is good at only some places.
Pace is very laggy and slow at various points. Writing could have been better.
Treatment is also like an old movie of 70s or 60s. Does not have the modern look and style. Maybe only old people might watch it.
No wonder Malayalam cinema is delivering so much better films nowadays. Tamil is only commercial masala or headless chicken like films like this one.
Waste of time.
