Other Tamil films featuring dogs
Pariyerum Perumal, the debut film of filmmaker Mari Selvaraj, features an indie species dog Karuppi, as the central theme of the film. The dog had recently passed away and the canine’s presence in the film, gave a different perspective on the caste-ridden society.
If you are looking to watch a film on lighter vein, there is Arun Vijay-starrer Oh My Dog about a young boy who finds a blind Huskey dog and trains him for a competition. Both these films are available for streaming on Prime Video.
