Soon
after Naduvule Oru Pakkathai Kanoom, Bajaji launched this project and it was
none other than Kamal Haasan who introduced Kalidas, son of actor Jayaram to
the Media in an exclusive event!
But
subsequently, the film’s production was delayed owing to several reasons while
the filmmaker came up with Seethakaathi, his first and third with Vijay
Sethupathi.
What
should have been a debut vehicle for Kalidas, Meghna Akash & Govind
Vasantha, the scorer, was not to be owing to the undue delay!
Thanks
to Zee 5, the film has been streaming successfully on their platform since 25th
December 2020!
The
film deals and deliberates on the peculiar theme of virgin-birth wherein a
young, college going girl becomes pregnant without getting engaged with a male
partner which actually baffles the medical fraternity!
Further
persistence of a team of medical practitioners unveils the fact and the girl in
question becomes a media sensation!
Till
these portions the director has steered the film as being soaked in real life
situations presenting a middle class household to tailor made perfection!
But
the entry of religious- interference in the second half plays spoilsport,
especially the focus being laid on a particular religious community while the
other religions are being referred to as a passing glance!
The
end is satisfactory with the Court passing a verdict that the child should be
handed over to the parents without any religious intervention!
Had
religion been kept out of the proceedings, the film would have been still more
effective, possibly with more effective focus on the crux of the plot!
Kalidas
and Megha Akash have carried themselves so naturally as the lead pair.
Govind
Vasantha’s score deserves mention.
