Kuiko, starring Yogi Babu and Vidhaarth hit theatres on Nov 24th.

Thangaraj (Vidharth) lands up in a small village during a trip, with  a refrigerated machine used to keep dead bodies. Due to a series of circumstances, he meets Malayappan (Yogi Babu)  who arrives home from the Middle East upon his aged mother's death.

The two strike up a friendship and soon Thangaraj becomes involved in the day to day affairs and gets to know the vilagers.

As a result, before he knows it, a slow change comes over  him.  He begins to find a purpose in life. 
What happens next?

The film is a quirky, slice of life movie,  taking us into the simple lives of the rural folk, filled with complications and issues that need sorting out.

How a different outlook can change things around and make life livable and happy for everyone is brought out in a witty and entertaining manner, without any melodrama nor over the top humor and most importantly , without any trace of preaching. 



As the film unfolds, Kuiko turns out to be a rib-tickling entertainer with good music,pleasant visuals and natural performances, with a feel good factor in its favor. Yogi Babu in a different role, with Vidharth adding with his presence,  works in its favor. 

Rating: 4 / 5
