Pirivom Sandhippom’s script and screenplay is nothing short of a miracle in a state which thrives on loud, shocking or sudden twists in everything - films, megaserials or politics! It’s a simple story, told elegantly, with simple, delightful touches of emotion and sparkling dialogs. I continue to not like Cheran in front of the camera and he continues to not act adequately enough - but, he does look like a ‘Natesan’! Sneha is the soul of this film; much like Pazhaniappan’s debut, Parthiban Kanavu, and boy does she deliver! She’s amazing in a role that does not require a woman to shout, squeal, frown, wiggle and what not. Sneha just smiles and showcases other subtle emotions through her expressive face that you don’t even recall if what you saw was acting. The entire extended family of Natesan is sheer delight to watch, even though the lack of any kind of an antagonist, while being a welcome, pleasant turn, is mildly jarring. If there was one, it would be ‘loneliness’ and it does rear its exotic head in the second half and has been dealt with appropriately, by Jayaram, in a delightful cameo. Pirivom Sandhippom is an adorable slice of life.

BEAUTIFUL movie! Sans any contrived situations, even the comedy here (however little!) reminded me of the Mozhi brand comedy. Very natural acting & simple story. Great BGM’s & songs by Vidyasagar especially the Vasantha piece which keeps coming.
