Uniquely narrated subjects featuring upcoming, young actors are the toast of the town among viewers in this lockdown. In an hour where the release of big-budget films isn’t a possibility, viewers are latching onto newer, pathbreaking stories to kill time regardless of its star value. Surprisingly, one among those viewers is a star himself, Mahesh Babu, who has showered appreciation on the Tamil film Oh My Kadavule that hit theatres earlier this year.
#OhMyKadavule… Enjoyed every bit of it… Superb performances, brilliantly written and directed @Dir_Ashwath. 👏👏👏@AshokSelvan you're a natural👌👍👏 pic.twitter.com/Ozxlz0EP4Q

For the uninitiated, the film starring Bhadram fame Ashok Selvan and Guru actress Ritika Singh was directed by debutant Ashwath Marimuthu. The film is a part-socio fantasy and part-rom-com, where the protagonists, once best friends, hit a rough patch with their relationship after they decide to marry each other. The story deals with the journey of the guy, who realises the mistakes he had committed in his marriage and reunites with his best friend finally. Oh My Kadavule is full of interesting twists and turns, with a rip-roaring screenplay and it was only natural that the superstar praised the film for its writing, also applauding the male lead Ashok Selvan’s performance.
The director and the lead cast of the film were naturally thrilled. Here’s how they reacted to Mahesh Babu’s praise.

The film, now airing on ZEE5, is all set to have a Telugu remake in the near future as well, with PVP bagging the remake rights. One needs to wait to see if the film casts a spell on audiences in the Telugu version too. Mahesh Babu was also bowled over by another popular web series on Netlfix, Dark in the recent times, which he had tweeted about.
