What’s it about?
Karthik (Narne Nithiin) goes back to his hometown and begins remote work following the conclusion of the COVID-19 pandemic. Hari and Subbu, who were childhood friends, experience joy at Karthik’s arrival. Complications arise when Karthik develops a liking for the same girl whom Subbu has been attempting to propose to for the past few years.
Pallavi (Nayan Sarika) is a popular social media star in the town, and he develops an immediate liking for Karthik. She consents to Karthik’s proposition under the assumption that he shares the same caste as her, as he is a friend of Subbu, who is a member of her caste. Pallavi, however, has agreed to marry someone her parents have chosen after discovering that Karthik does not belong to her caste.
What is the reason behind Pallavi’s strong emphasis on caste, and how does their love story ultimately conclude with a positive outcome?
Analysis
Magic begins where logic ends”—the quotation comes at the start of the film, implying that the film primarily relied on magic rather than logic. According to this assertion, “Aay” makes a concerted effort to elicit laughter. It’s a delightful movie set in the COVID-19 era.
Bottom line: “Aay” is a film that provides time pass moments. Don’t expect much from this, but it sure does entertain with his comedy portions. A simple but fun movie.
