Bollywood cinema has produced another romcom that marks the coming together of a South Indian girl and a North Indian boy. Param Sundari brings together Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor in a romantic drama that tries to blend youthful charm with emotional depth.

Set against the scenic backdrop of Kerala, the film showcases vibrant visuals and soulful music that stand out as its strongest aspects. The chemistry between the lead pair adds freshness, and the lighthearted romantic moments work well in parts, making it appealing to younger audiences who enjoy breezy rom-coms.

However, the story struggles to rise above its predictable nature. The plot follows familiar beats, and the emotions often feel forced rather than naturally flowing.

While Janhvi Kapoor’s presence adds glamour, her attempt at a Malayalam accent seems inconsistent and occasionally distracts from the performance. Sidharth Malhotra delivers a steady act, but the age gap between the characters and the writing sometimes make their connection less convincing.

The first half manages to hold attention with romance, humor, and music, but the second half slows down, weighed by dragged-out conflicts and contrived drama.

Despite a promising premise and appealing visuals, the film does not leave a lasting emotional impact. Param Sundari remains watchable for its leads and presentation but falls short of being truly memorable.

Considering that the film could only generate mixed reviews in the early stages, it has to be seen where it would end up at the box office.
