I'm liking the family scenes a lot and I also like the fact that S&M aren't related and come from completely different backgrounds. It's like a throwback to SM 1 - except the main leads backgrounds have changed.
Not a fan of the hero & the heroes friends so far - but the supporting cast (father, mother, brother, sisters, cousin etc) interactions with the hero make him far more likeable then when he is alone. Liking M's characterization so far...good kid who does right by her parents but is fairly reasonable (as is the guy (Arun?) she is betrothed too). This version of M is level headed, which is a welcome change to the previous two stubborn/angry M's.
The director needs to give the hero some kind of positive aspect...something that the audience could relate to. In this many episodes, the only sort of redeeming quality about him has been his affection for his younger sister. It doesn't feel like he deserves a wife like M, because he's done nothing to prove that he can keep her happy.
Imo, the hero is the weakest part of the show right now...it also seems like he has more chemistry with his aunt's daughter (Muthalagu?) than M so far, but S & M haven't talked yet, so it's too early to tell...
