Paranthu Po, the Tamil musical comedy directed by Ram, is now streaming on JioHotstar via OTTplay Premium after its theatrical release in July. Starring Shiva, Grace Antony, Mithul Ryan, Anjali, and Aju Varghese, the film brings a refreshing mix of humour, music, and life lessons that resonate with both children and adults.
The story follows Gokul (Shiva), an urban father tasked with looking after his energetic eight-year-old son Anbu (Mithul Ryan) while mother Glory (Grace Antony) is away for work. What begins as a regular day turns into an unexpected road trip filled with quirky encounters, personal discoveries, and bonding moments.
Unlike Ram’s previous intense dramas, Paranthu Po leans heavily on light-hearted humour, breezy storytelling, and poignant messages about parenting, the importance of slowing down, and cherishing fleeting moments in life. Through whimsical conversations, charming characters, and soulful music, the film explores how simple acts—like climbing a tree or taking a detour—can strengthen human connections.
The film also subtly addresses modern challenges of parenting, reminding audiences that while it may not be possible to meet every demand of a child, there are ways to fulfil their simple wishes in the midst of busy lives. With its mix of fun, warmth, and emotional depth, Paranthu Po is an engaging watch for families looking for laughter and reflection in equal measure.
