Thalaivettiyaan Paalayam Series Review: A quirky tale about acclimatisation and identity

Thalaivettiyaan Paalayam is an unassuming story about an engineering graduate who goes from Chennai to a small village in Tamil Nadu after landing a government job there as the panchayat secretary. Sound’s parents, Meenakshi Sundaram and Meenakshi Devi talk about her future, especially her marriage, and her absence makes it a perceptive piece of commentary about the societal pressure on a girl like her to conform to traditions in a patriarchal society. Moreover, the husband and wife have Meenakshi in their names, so the former calls the latter ‘Sound Amma’. Chetan is a hoot as Meenakshi Sundaram, a man who keeps reminding his wife of Siddharth’s monthly salary, 20,000 rupees, which can make most engineering graduates and even MBA grads wince.
