Birithivy Y Kudumbasthan - 8.5/10. In a strange way, this could easily be a sister film to Dragon. Both involve similar minded dilemmas for the main character, where here the character is facing financial strains as his main problem, Dragon’s strains come from lying and circumventing the system. Manikandan started off his acting career as a lead hero in spectacular fashion. He had Aelay and Jai Bhim in 2021, then Good Night in 2023, and then Lover in 2024. All very solid films overall. Here, we get a new age V Sekhar/Visu film in Kudumbasthan. Its a comedy drama about the complications that happen within middle class life. How money, ego, and comparisons sort of ruin the very essence as to why we live. Kudumbasthan is a nice and well made movie, spinning the family melodrama techniques popularized and perfected by the said directors above, but providing a modern spin on it with modern directing, editing, and story telling. The performances are nice, and the music is splendid, but my one negative about the film was the somewhat silly nature at points of the film. Not that its a huge drawback, but it did feel like it took away from some of the scenes at times. Otherwise, this is another solid addition to Manikandan’s young career, and one of the better films so far in tamil cinema in 2025! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/16/25 Full Review Lucky01 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 🤯 Movie has very relatable character, every one should connect with this movie Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/12/25 Full Review 21 - Priyan B 2nd half dragged a bit but worth a watch.
