Simple, heart warming films with lot of goodness is what we deserve and #TouristFamily delivers just that. 
Thanking the whole cast and crew who made this gem of a film. Much needed.

The 25-year-old director Abishan Jeevinth was pleasantly surprised receiving praises for his film from the superstar himself. He said it was totally unexpected.

Replying to his tweet, Jeevinth wrote, "Sir, this was totally unexpected! Thank you so much for the encouragement – your tweet truly made our day! We`re feeling extra grateful and super motivated!"

Despite clashing with Suriya`s Retro, Tourist Family saw a stronger and better response at the box office. It has earned over 75 crore worldwide. The film also received appreciation from celebrities like SS Rajamouli, Rajinikanth, and Dhanush, among others.

The recent Tamil release follows the story of a Sri Lankan family of four who seek refuge in Tamil Nadu after entering India illegally. It explores the challenging lives of Sasikumar, Simran, Mithun Jai Sankar and Kamalesh, who play the lead roles.

After seeing a theatrical release on May 1, Tourist Family is now streaming on JioHotstar.
