Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With soft box office and little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Who'll love it

The mood

What might put you off
  • No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
  • It's long: 2 hr 54 min.
  • It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1971: an older pace and style.

Kaveri and Sathish fall in love and get married and have a perfect life. However, Sathish's behaviour towards Kaveri changes when he finds out she was molested as a kid. The film revolves around the issues of a woman's chastity, the acceptance of mentally ill by society and unfaithful spouses.
