Window Side) is a 2013 Tamil-language road comedy thriller film directed by Karu Pazhaniappan[1] A remake of the 2012 Malayalam film, Ordinary, it stars Parthiban, Vimal, Vidharth, Ramana, Poorna and Manisha Yadav of Vazhakku Enn 18/9 fame.

The story is set in Pannaikadu, a hillside village, with only one bus service to and from a nearby town, Palani.

Subbiah, from Cuddalore, is appointed in TNSTC as a bus conductor and is assigned Palani – Pannaikadu route for his first posting.

The dim lighting of the evening, fog and distractions from his conversations with Karuppu makes him late to see a person standing on road.

In the panic of the situation and unable to think straight, they send the bleeding victim in a pickup truck that arrived soon after.

Guilt-ridden, Subbiah and Karuppu search the victim's bag and recognize him to be Siva – the son of Vinayagam "Annan sir" (a retired well-respected school headmaster and Pannaikadu panchayat member) and the fiancé of Nirmala David, his childhood friend.

Saamy had an eccentric odd character – aimless, unrelenting to act as per his wishes, lonely in his ways, but friendly with the village people.

[9] The Times of India wrote: "Overall, the film is competently put together and somewhat interesting but you cannot escape a lingering feeling that it should have been a little ambitious and much better".

[10] Sify wrote: "The major problem with Jannal Oram a scene-by-scene remake of the original is the over-the top performances by lead actors, especially Parthipan.

The director should have known that the likes of Parthipan and Prakashraj are past their sell-by dates and can only add to unwanted irritations and nuisances.
