  Review by Michael James ★★★★

  KS Ravikumar’s bang on screenplay, Crazy Mohan’s hilarious dialogues, extraordinary performance from Kamal Haasan and his terrific comic chemistry with Jayaram, makes this comedy drama one hell of joy ride. Delhi Ganesh and Ramesh Khanna, add to the fun. A wholesome entertainer, that stays fresh even after years and makes you laugh out loud everytime you watch it.

  Review by Josh Felix ★★★½

  'Thenali' by K. S. Ravikumar, is a genuine light hearted comedy-drama starring Kamal Haasan and Jayaram as the main leads. The film revolves around Thenali, a man plagued by various irrational fears due to a traumatic past, and his attempts to overcome them with the help of a renowned psychiatrist, Dr. Kailash. The plot thickens when Thenali's growing closeness to Kailash’s family leads to comedic misunderstandings and emotional moments.

  Kamal Haasan's performance is a standout collaborating with Crazy Mohan's comical dialogues,bringing a blend of humor, vulnerability, and warmth to his character. His comedic timing, coupled with his versatility in portraying a man with deep-rooted phobias, adds charm to the narrative. Jayaram provides an excellent foil as the frustrated psychiatrist, while…

  Most Underrated Kamal Hassan Movie!!!!!!
  No creep or vulgar jokes,only organic humour.
  One of the best use of situational comedy.

  P.S: Deducted ½ 🌟 because it's a remake😭.

  kamal and crazy mohan remake what about bob?, replacing murray's snide menace with sellars like naivety (kamal plays a displaced sri lankan tamil throughout, and his recollections of the horrors he saw as a child punch a hole through the film that it can never quite recover from); wish it was any director other than k.s. ravikumar, but easy and shameless grace isn't an easy thing to find.

  From "Kailash...Inime nee yen Kaila Ash" to "Neengal Doctor eh alla deivam...deiva machan" Crazy Mohan's writing and KH's level of indulging into the character make you go AWE everytime

  Review by evilngk ★★★★

  i have such a strong memory of this cos i remember we were on holiday and my parents brought me to a cinema with a balcony on the upper level. i was so young idek if they had to pay for a ticket for me but it was my first and only time watching a film from a balcony and i was delighted even though i didn't understand half of what kamal says in this film lol i just laughed a lot. anyway, a fun revisit, very wholesome christmas-adjacent film with perfect breezy holiday vibes. sure, the song placements are kinda silly, and some of the jokes don't hit, with especially the weakest aspect in that climax which is stretched…
