All About Pariyerum Perumal (2018)

Actor Kathir gained critical acclaim after he starred in Mari Selvaraj's film Pariyerum Perumal as the protagonist. The plot of the film revolves around Perumal's (Kathir) relationship with his dog Karuppi, his crush Jothi Mahalakshmi (Anandhi) and his friend Anand (Yogi Babu). The happenings in the movie discuss the caste discrimination prevailing in Tirunelveli and many other places in Tamil Nadu. It highlights Perumal's challenges as a lower caste individual when he becomes close to his upper caste friend Jothi. The movie brutally exposes the harsh realities of the casteist society, echoing the themes of division portrayed in the first part of Dhadak, starring Ishaan Khattar and Janhvi Kapoor. Pa Ranjith bankrolled the movie under the banner Neelam Productions.
