Tamil actor Ravi Mohan commenced an encouraging 2025 with a delightful romantic drama entitled Kadhalikka Neramillai, featuring Nithya Menen in a prominent role. The film premiered in theaters on January 14 and had a brief theatrical engagement; it is now available for streaming on Netflix in four languages: Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, and Malayalam.

The film is directed and penned by Kiruthiga Udhayanidhi, with music composed by AR Rahman. It explores the subject of in vitro fertilization, a theme that has not been frequently tackled in Tamil cinema.

Kadhalikka Neramillai out on OTT: Where to watch the movie?

The film features Nithya portraying an architect named Shriya, who aspires to lead an ideal life characterized by a reliable partner and children. However, she soon discovers that her partner has been unfaithful. Concurrently, Ravi plays the role of Siddharth, a structural engineer who is averse to taking on any additional burdens in his life, including marriage and parenthood. Shriya's intention to conceive through IVF aligns with Siddharth's decision to donate his sperm. This sets off a series of events that ultimately unite the unlikely pair.

The cast also includes Ravi Mohan, John Kokken, Lal, Mano, Yogi Babu, Vinay Rai, and TJ Bhanu, known for their roles in Guns and Gulaabs. Kadhalikka Neramillai represents Netflix’s inaugural major Tamil release of the year, following the recent premiere of Pushpa 2: The Rise just two weeks prior.

Reasons to watch Kadhalikka Neramillai

While critics expressed dissatisfaction with the film's lackluster storytelling and predictable plot, the performances of the lead actors, Ravi Mohan and Nithya Menen, received commendation. 

Additionally, some viewers found the narrative, which attempts to craft a "modern love story" by incorporating themes such as IVF and the challenges faced by contemporary urban couples, to be relatable. For those seeking a light-hearted film this Valentine’s weekend, Kadalikka Neramillai may be an appropriate choice.
