As time moves on, the stronghold they constructed starts to show signs of deterioration.

As a devoted admirer, I’m thrilled to share that “Peranbum Perungobamum” serves as the first acting venture for Vijith Bachan, the esteemed filmmaker Thangar Bachan’s son. Masterfully directed by Siva Prakash, this captivating tale delves into three significant chapters in the life of our protagonist. The enchanting music is the brainchild of Ilaiyaraaja, while Dinesh lends his skillful eye for cinematography and Ramar gracefully handles the editing.

Initially reluctant, he takes up the task and starts writing the tale of Kannan, a common TukTuk driver.

Exploring Kannan’s life, the author discovers the profound emotions and hardships hidden beneath a seemingly ordinary existence. Kannan’s experiences, intertwined with his family’s highs and lows, gradually alter the writer’s point of view. What initially appears as a hesitant endeavor turns into a deeply emotional storyline.
