Veyil (Sunrays) is a marvellous depiction of the 'poverty is the root of all evils' adage. Narrating the teenage years of Sid (Shane Nigam), the careless of a widowed mother's two sons, the other being bright but medically insufficient, this drama takes you on a 3-hour journey to the lives of these people and their relationships between each other and with the outer world, which is often ruthless and selfish. Veyil stayed with me for its lively and heartbreaking moments, its performances, and how miserable it made me feel towards the end, also thanks to the nonchalant music. Watch it!
