As #Elan promised, there are three sweet and wonderful surprises. And I truly wish people get to watch it without someone spoiling it for them.

These surprises are also my favourite parts of the film that mostly kept me at an arm's length despite… pic.twitter.com/sUNZfRvBGs

Didn't quite mind the film either. I haven't rewatched it at all, but I remember it fondly. I loved the characterisations in Pyaar Prema Kaadhal, especially Raiza's. I found that to be missing in Star.

#STAR : A Yuvan Shankar Raja musical masterclass after ages. That surprise in the 1st half would have given goosebumps to all the Yuvanians out there. And Kavin, What a performance 🔥

Some scenes were brilliant but overall decent to good.
