One side love - honest and likeable.
Dhanush is the major factor that makes the film work to an extent. Shriya has got a break from the glamour routine for a change which is a relief, and looks fresh and cute. Technically, the movie does not offer anything special. It is a simple story with minimum requirements; the camera and editing ...(more)

Kutty is fun.
It might seem the same old story on paper and it is, but Sukumar (who wrote and directed the original Telugu movie) is to be credited for the spontaneous dialogues, and appealing, racy screenplay. Despite the predictable end, you're glued to the screen because of the intriguing plot twists. The reas...(more)

Clean entertainer.
This is a remake of the Telugu film 'Arya'. It is the uncertainty over the fate of love that is the most engaging thread in the entire film, and Jawahar deserves a round of applause for that.

A different dimension.
A feel-good romance, Kutty brims with energy. Dhanush enlivens the proceedings with funny interpretations of his disappointment at every turn. Shriya looks ravishing throughout and also gets her emotions right. Kutty doesn't strain your grey cells. If you don't mind an 'oh-not-again climax', an exub...(more)
