Mental trauma and utter consternation - this has seldom been brought out in a better way. This is considered widely as Simran’s best performance. The mixed expressions of confusion and fear were elicited with a lot of control by the actress, not going overboard at many places where the margin for error was very narrow. The trepidation when her husband refuses to believe her and instead thinks that she has gone off her mind was extremely well depicted. The sensitive and matured portrayal of a mother of two in Kannathil Muthamittal is also one of Simran’s best performances.
