Vaazhai tells the story of Sivanaindhan (Ponvel), a young boy with a sweet smile and an optimistic outlook on life. Living with his mother, Janaki, and elder sister, Vembu, Sivanaindhan’s life is a constant balancing act between school and work at a local banana plantation.

It’s stirring and emotional in its tale. It is so tender yet haunting. And it is one of those rare films that you would want to erase from your memory to watch over again,” wrote one reviewer.
The film’s music, composed by Santhosh Narayanan, has also been lauded for its haunting melodies, which perfectly complement the film’s tone. A viewer commented, “I can’t stop thinking how the press show audience remained firmly in their seats when #Paadhavathi played in the credits.”
