Mari works in a crackers factory while Thenkarasa, pursues engineering in Chennai. Thenkarasa’s father, a bullock cart owner and a hard working soul nurtures aspirations for his son.

Mari often dreams of a life with Thenkarasa, but is tongue tied when she meets him. Egged by her friend, Cheeni (Inbanila), she tries to speak of her love to him, but fails. As for Thenkarasa, she is just his childhood friend until his classmate Uttara opens his eyes to Mari’s feelings for him. But his father’s aspirations force him to marry a rich man’s daughter.

Although Mari is disappointed, she continues to love him. Unlike other love stories, Poo scores with its unselfish love. A subtle message is also sent across about the price one has to pay in a consanguineous marriage.

On her debut, Parvathy Menon has done a remarkable job as the village girl in love. In this role, she exudes a grace and coyness unseen today in the women of other love stories. Srikanth’s role is small yet significant.

Inbanila as Mari’s friend shows plenty of potential. Ramu in the role of Srikanth’s father puts up a good performance and so does the actress as Mari’s mother. Yet, the love story fails to touch you. And the story could have been edited.

However the visuals are stunning and is a neat and clean movie that can be watched with the family. If you are looking for a fresh breath of air, watch Poo.

The film shot in a rustic background stars Srikanth and Parvathy. Based on the short story ‘Veyyilodu Poi’, the film is expected to contain a heart warming story. Sasi who has churned out ‘Sollamale’, Rojakootam’ and ‘Dishyum’ earlier, has a penchant for realistic human emotions.

Poo’s music album by S. S. Kumaran has already become popular with its mellifluous tunes oozing with the ‘native feel’.

‘Poo’ sure has all the makings of a healthy entertainer with abundance of realism packed in it. Something audiences would love.
