First half is fun filled & 2nd half is bit dragged but WORTH WATCHING
2nd half last 30 minutes writing was peaks
K. Manikandan performance in one scene (Dinning table scene, while he starting eating the food & their mother take the food plate ,K. Manikandan expression ) is too GOOD
Movie has very relatable character, every one should connect with this movie.
STORY PLOT ::: Naveen lives with his wife, Vennila, and his parents and is the family's sole breadwinner. After an argument at work, and refusing to apologize, Naveen is fired. Boggled by family pressures and financial struggles,how naveen.

There's a lot in this movie to unpack. This is one of those films that won't hit the same if you haven't been through certain things in life. If you can relate to the contents, you're going to have a good time laughing at the miseries of life. If you can't, you're going to find this film to be a drab.
This film talks about how much we as a society value money and someone's ability to provide. If you can't make money, you're worthless because cash in hand makes the world go round. If you liked Manikandan's Good Night, you might not mind this one. However, the difference between a one-time-watch and a "wonderful movie" will come down to how much you can relate.
At the very least, it's totally worth the watch it for the cast and the work they'd put in to tell this serious story in a relatively funny manner.

Fun-filled. This movie will make you laugh, that's a guaranteed. There's so much to take away from this movie. Every frame is worth it. Mani Kandan nailed it as always! I couldn't stop wondering how he picks such scripts! The director has a good future in the industry! Setback after setback! Even though this movie shows the harsh reality, you won't feel down watching this rather be uplifted! The veterans did a good job especially the Appa and the mama characters. I loved this family where everyone was imperfect. How the relations mock at you in the functions can't be portrayed in a better way by anyone else! This is so much fun, do watch it! You would not want to miss a frame even in the songs!
