Critics Review

Below Average
The film lacks a cohesive screenplay and hero characterisation seems to be inspired from Vimal�s Kalavani character. New girl Aadhimiya looks good but has a single expression throughout the film. Music of Imman is passable. On the whole the film fails to deliver.(more)

Bird's Eye View
Manam Koththi Paravai is a movie that is light-hearted, entertaining, hilarious and at the same a little cliched. With Siva Karthikeyan at the helm of affairs accompanied by a slew of comedy artistes, he has managed to come clean. The movie may resemble the likes of 'Kalavani' and 'Uthamaputhiran'. But forget the lengthy second half and some cliched sequences, 'Manam Koththi Paravai' will stick to your hearts.(more)

Love, not untold before!
Manam Kothi Paravai moves at a very relaxed pace. With not too many events packed into it, the movie might come across as a long haul if you are looking for a love story that is both entertaining and endearing. Parts of it are entertaining and parts of it, endearing. Just that it�s not a perfect blend of both. If that�s your type, do give it a try.(more)

Half-baked attempt at humour
If a group of comedians talking nineteen to the dozen, and a hero, who isn't exactly sure when he has to look sad, can make a rom-com, MKP is one. But if you expect a light-hearted story and screenplay, with humour as its mainstay, MKP is a dampener. Imman's title music is soothing on the ear and a couple of his numbers are hum-worthy. (more)
