Watched. Credit to Jeethu Joseph for bringing the same magic in Tamil too. More than being a faithful remake, the film has few additional elements and that worked well for me.

Kamal looked on par with Lal for 3/4th of the film but he takes over in the last quarter. When the director had said in an interview that the Tamil version will be more emotional, I was not very happy. But it works really well.

And it is good to see a promising young talent like Ghibran groomed by Kamal. His music is a huge plus.

On the negatives, I didn't find many. Like the original, the story unfolds in a leisurely pace. Also, I didn't like Gauthami. She was dull compared to Meena.

The show I watched was in the midnight. But almost 80% of the hall was filled with family audience, something that's rare for midnight shows.
