OCTOBER 01,2025

The much-anticipated film, Idli Kadai, starring Dhanush and Nithya Menen, is out in cinemas, and fans are showering love on the latest Tamil release. The family film is a slow-paced, homely cinematic masterpiece with a rather predictable climax.

It follows the story of Murugesan, a five-star restaurant employee who decides to go back to his roots to follow in the footsteps of his father, a respected man in their community, where he ends up running his own idli shop.

In this simple story comes a twist when his tyrannical ex-employer tries to shut down Murugesan's family business to run his own. The feeling of belongingness to his culture and roots whilst fighting against an arrogant man is the theme of Idli Kadai.

One user wrote, "A fantastic light-hearted movie which we missed in Tamil cinema for a long time. Nice first half followed by a heart-melting second half. 'D', what a writing man. I controlled my tears in climax, but I failed.'


Another fan added, "Idli Kadai movie with the positive response.A must-watch movie with the connected family emotions."


A third moviegoer praised Dhanush and wrote, "Nalla padam! Idly Kadai. The movie's name, its characters, and whatnot all stuck to its coremdashthe emotions behind that one shop. Well written, the movie lures you in, which makes you emotionally connect with each scene, not forced. Dhanush, take this W [win]."


Another one criticised the film and wrote, 'Idli Kadai [is] artificial for the most part. I usually trust D [Dhanush] with the emotions in his films. Pa Paandi, Thiruchitrambalam, had emotions packed beautifully. But Idli Kadai is a letdown.'


After many praises, Idli Kadai also faced some criticism, with a fan calling it "utter waste". They wrote, 'Weak screenplay [thumbs down] Poor writing, cringe romance, forced emotions, and overacting from Dhanush. Only positive - GV [Prakash Kumar].'


Not all good things were said about Dhanush's latest release, but it surely works on your emotions and is perfect if you're looking for a feel-good watch.
