Sasi has picked up an interesting knot for a proper masala flick. Though not entirely new with Thambikku Endha Ooru obviously coming to mind the reason and the settings do ensure that Pichaikkaran is unique.

An Emotional Drama With A Feel-good Factor

Overall, Pichaikkaran is a neat attempt by Sasi and his team. High on sentiment and human values, the film does leave you with a feel good factor. (more)

Pichaikkaran is a tale overflowing with emotions.

Entertaining

Pichaikkaran's strength is Sasi�s packaging and captivating dialogues. The director has also got the right casting and each and every actors have done their job well. To start with, Vijay Antony fits the bill perfectly both as a posh businessman and a fierce beggar. (more)

Sasi makes a fair impression with Picha karan. But the screenplay is so-so and not like Naan or Salim. Vijay Anthony has donea good job. There are multiple stories which dilute the impact. Heroine not really needed. (more)
