Veppam Kulir Mazhai, a Tamil film, has successfully completed its theatrical run and is now set to dominate the OTT platform. Helmed by debutant director Pascal Vedamuthu, the film was made with a budget of Rs.2 crore. Featuring Dhirav and Ismath Banu in the lead roles, the story delves into the harsh reality of society and its treatment towards individuals who are unable to conceive due to incurable physical ailments. While there have been numerous films addressing this issue, this particular film portrays the father’s indescribable emotional anguish in an unprecedented manner.
The movie was created by Dhirav for Hashtag FDFS Productions. Dhirav portrayed the character of the father, Petthaperumal, while Paandi, Perumal, and Ismath Banu played the role of the mother, Paandi. Veppam Kulir Mazhai can be viewed on Aha Tamil or via our OTTplay Premium starting April 23, 2024. The film Veppam Kulir Mazhai commences with the grand wedding of Petthaperumal and Paandi. The families and relatives come together to celebrate the occasion with great happiness and excitement. They all shower blessings upon the newlyweds for a prosperous life and offspring. Unfortunately, despite societal expectations of parenthood being a crucial aspect of marriage, the couple faces challenges with infertility after a few years. It has been half a decade, and they are yet to experience the joy of having their own children.
The movie delves into the question of whether their love and dedication can withstand the external pressures, leaving viewers to ponder if their marriage will endure the trials of time. Additionally, this film sheds light on the profound emotional turmoil experienced by the husband. While the wife’s pain is unimaginable, we must not overlook the psychological trauma endured by the husband. Nevertheless, the film industry in Tamil Nadu has been experiencing a significant decline since the start of 2024. No movie has managed to achieve great success at the box office so far. This lack of profitability is worrying filmmakers and cinema owners in the region. Despite this, even Veppam Kulir Mazhai failed to make a substantial impact at the box office. As a result, all attention is now focused on the viewership of OTT platforms.
