The film begins with a back story involving Kutti Puli’s dad and the plot is actually about how his death influences the mother, her son and their relationship. And, this pattern goes on a loop until the very end. So, one moment you have a scene between Kutti Puli and his mom, the next with Bharathi followed by a scene with Moorthy. Here, they stick out as the director is unable to weave a plot that brings them together in a satisfying manner. Those films used all these Sasikumar-isms but still managed to keep us engaged. But, unlike in his previous films, these elements don’t come together as a whole. And, most importantly, the aruva (sickle) which has come to define his films.

M Muthaiah’s Kutti Puli has everything we have seen in Sasikumar’s films so far. Meanwhile, Moorthy, a local gangster is humiliated by Puli and now, he wants revenge. Enter Bharathi (Lakshmi Menon), who falls in love with Puli seeing his ever-helpful nature. His mother (Saranya) wants him to mend his ways and get married but Puli thwarts all her plans. Movie Review: Kutti Puli (Sasikumar) is a do-gooder with a roguish streak and his attitude often lands him in trouble. But, can his violent past leave him in peace?

Until, the new girl in his neighbourhood gets attracted to him. Synopsis: An angry young man manages to put off his mother’s attempts to reform him.
