A Film That Feels Like a Hug
Described by viewers as “a movie that feels like a hug,” Tourist Family offers gentle comfort through its story of love, struggle, and resilience.

A Strong Ensemble and Powerful Debut
Directed by Abishan Jeevinth, in a deeply impressive directorial debut, the film features compelling performances by Sasikumar and Simran as the couple at the center of the story. Supporting actors Mithun Jai Shankar, Ramesh Thilak, Bagavathi Perumal, and MS Bhaskar add further depth to the narrative, while Sean Roldan’s soulful music adds a resonant emotional layer.
From Box Office to Streaming Triumph
Tourist Family quietly became a box office success, grossing over ₹75 crore in just four weeks of its theatrical run. Strong word-of-mouth and audience empathy helped drive repeat viewings. Its shift to OTT has only expanded its reach, now connecting with families across languages — including through a warmly received Telugu-dubbed version.
This renewed popularity stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of grounded, emotional storytelling. In an age of spectacle-heavy cinema, Tourist Family proves that stories rooted in everyday realities, humanity, and kindness can still move millions.
