Pon ondru kanden was a light hearted feel good movie not costing you much, in terms of cognitive efforts or money.
It deals with topics like divorce in a natural way, without hue and cry. And, organically portrays a male gynecologist, not a big show. A successful, young female sous chef, no shoutout. A young man who gave 4+ years in the care of his mother, which is not a big deal, though we don't know what job does end up in. Three sisters supporting a younger brother, playing his parents, so commonplace. A woman complaining about her husband's lack of contraceptive usage, that's everyday gynec OT. Showing doctor's limitation, a gynec can check vitals, do CPR, but not attend accident and emergency even if heroine is panicking about her wounded colleague, because doctors aren't Gods.
Casually normalising complex portrayals. That's commendable.
It did have some quirky elements, the overlay of childhood rivalry among mature adults, the intact remote memory of someone with dementia, the banter and jealousy-filled love triangle duets.
A breezy one time watch.
