Nitham Oru Vaanam

Interesting writing choices and sincere performances make Nitham Oru Vaanam a tasteful dish, albeit made from the usual ingredients. Despite being made on a massive canvas, NOV is a simple film that conveys a simple message that encourages us to smile whenever possible, show some kindness to people around us and embrace life as it comes.

Nitham Oru Vaanam has a rather shaky start and it takes us a while to warm up to Arjun and his issues. It is only with the entry of Mathi that we see a spark of life, and post-interval, as the film shows us what happened to the couples, we begin to warm up to Arjun and the film. If only the previous half had this same kind of charm, this would have been quite a breeze.

Nitham Oru Vaanam feels like a fresh dose of hope. Be it Vidhu Ayyanna's simple but elegant frames or Gopi Sundar's music that doesn't distract one from the flow of the film, a lot comes together well to ensure the film is as gentle as a breeze and yet as deep as the ocean.
