This movie made the audience live among the characters for that 1 hr 42 mins. Superb direction & dialogues. The girl is certainly a talented actress & gave her best to the role she played. The grandma, of course, is a seasoned actress known for her acting skills. All the characters contributed their best to make the village life as realistic as possible, including the children in the movie. The bonding among the characters has been wonderfully brought out by all the characters in the movie. Hats off to the entire cast & crew for the portrayal of village life. A memorable journey indeed to the interiors of Tamilnadu with special focus on the tradition & culture of the village people. Worth the time spent watching this beautiful movie.
