The movie was excellent. Everybody acted very well in the film. BGM in the movie was superb. Songs were not much. The comedy scenes were the highlight in the movie. One of the best movie of Vijay Sethupathi.
This movie belong to one of those super cool movies. Love to see such beautiful themes in Tamil. Happy that we are getting rid of those awful rituals like Foreign songs and punch dialogs. Love everything about this Movie: Story, Screenplay, Actors...everything!!! Most of the Actors seem new and they have done a great job. Such a realistic acting. This movie can be remade in any other language, it has such a potential. Hats off to the Director. Indeed should appreciate the producer who chose such a off beat theme.Love to see more movies like this in future with off beat themes. Please don't miss this movie and please watch this with your friends.
Clean comedy.....No unnecessary stuff throughout the whole movie. 5+ points for that alone!! I'm even willing to give the movie a 20 on 10.....The story, the cast, the performance, direction, screenplay etc. - a class apart. I thought the friend who played Vijay Sethupathi's friend (Bugs) was an actor!! The actual SHOCK came in the very end when I came to know that the movie was based on a real life story & the character Bugs played himself!!!!! Hats off!! Vijay Sethupathi, as usual, shines in histrionics, so do the rest. His character, being repetitive-dialogue-prone, still did not make me feel bored. Both his friends'(SARAS & Bhaji) facial expressions are what other "stars" should try to imbibe.
After a VERY LONG time, I had a VERY HEARTY laughter a lot of times through the movie (after ANBE SIVAM, I guess). I could not even press the PAUSE button for a moment. I watched on TV via paid subscription service. Very gripping right through the end. How the "story" spans an entire 2+ hours on a thin thread of temporary memory loss of just a few days, without making the viewers batting an eyelid is a revelation. How the story was handled without deviating over to any unnecessary / unwarranted stunts should be applauded. Actually, I was in a dilemma in some of the scenes whether to feel sympathetic about the character PREM or laugh at the rollicking fun that is a part & parcel of the situations that unfurl when one loses memory temporarily. TAKE A BOW & more, Balaji & the whole CREW !!!!!!!!!

I have watched many Tamil movies. But this one just surprised me with its simplicity and charisma. There is no artificiality in the characters or in their makeup or in their acting. In many Tamil films, I had seen the comedy scenes just bulge out and doesn't fit well with the overall tone of the movie. But NKPK was an exception to it. Everything jells perfectly well into it and it made me laugh a lot. It was a surprise to me that this film was made out on a real event. This film was made with just 80 lacs and it grossed over 6 crores, which shows how good is this movie. Just watch and enjoy the fun.
Nice entertaining movie with a difference.
It's very difficult to weave a 1-2 hours story with just a small topic. But, the story writer and the director have proved it's damn easy with their amazing work. Mainly due to occasional seasoning by the friends of the hero in the movie, the movie seems fun-filled.
The movie effortlessly impressed me due to the natural acting by the friends of the hero in the movie. Way to go! NKPK team: Thanks for the fun. All the best for the future! :)
On the whole, a must watch! :)
Cheers, Raghavan Santhanam
