The true strength of 'Kaathal' lies in its subtlety and its sincerest portrayal of the LGBTQ community.
The narrative not only highlights the challenges and the struggles faced by individuals associated with this group, but also sheds light on the difficulties faced by their friends and families due to societal and judicial reluctance.
More Importantly, the story does not get vindictive or vilify any specific group or their people or their beliefs. Instead, it tries to offer a compassionate & empathetic perspective on society and the ordinary people who inhabit it.
The story comprehends the various viewpoints without endorsing segregation, nor does it promote coercive cohabitation but it rather advocates for harmonious coexistence through equal rights and understanding.
P. S. Mammootty's remarkable range and diverse script choices, especially at the age of 72 (yes, you heard it right, 72), are truly remarkable!
