Should you spend 2h 23m on it?

2h 23m of Tamil romance with comedy threaded through, not one for younger kids. A little over the usual, so start it earlier than you think.

Story

Haiku is a heartfelt romantic drama about second chances and healing. Mano, once an immature and possessive college boy, loses his first love Kodi, a bold and caring girl from a traditional Coimbatore family, after his insecurities and long-distance struggles ruin their relationship. Years later, Mano, now more mature, meets Nivi, an independent, lower-middle-class girl raised by a single mother, who is recovering from a toxic relationship with Arul. Mano helps Nivi rediscover what true love means, while Nivi gives Mano a chance to love without control and without fear.
