Prakashan Parakkatte

Beautiful Film. 9 instead of 10 only because the build up was rather slow.

Prakashan Parakkatte streams on Zee5 in orig. Malayalam w/English subs.

This is a realistic poignant narration about an ordinary family of limited means, set in a rural community in the verdant foothills of the Western Ghats.

Prakashan (Dileesh Pothen) owns a small convenience shop. He lives in a modest house with his wife Latha, older son Dasan (Mathew Thomas) and much younger son Akhil (Ritunjay Sreejith). Latha's brother the somewhat dubious Kuttan (Saiju Kurup) is mostly in and out of their house as he is spoilt by his sister and sponges off his brother in law, though he is genuinely fond of his nephews.

Das is in PU but though he is intelligent, he lacks ambition and routinely fails a few subjects. Das is at that difficult stage of adolescence and Prakasha tries his best to understand him, while the mother is short tempered with Das though loving to the other child Akhil who is very cute and sweet, loved by all and good at art. Das and Akhil go to school together everyday, which though he loves his kid brother, irritates Das at times. While going in the bus, Das spots a girl Neethu (Malavika) whom he is attracted to. His best friend Anwar (Govind Pai) finds out that Neethu attends a tuition class, so the two of them also go to join that class. The tuition master waives their fees to shut them up as they have seen him misbehaving with some girl students.

All goes quite well until a sudden tragic incident takes place and life is turned upside down for Prakasha's family.

No Further Spoilers, watch the beautifully made film that realistically deals with the ups and downs of life and how the family deals with the hurdles that come their way.

Dileesh Pothen has excelled in his portrayal of Prakashan; every actor has convincingly enacted their role. The cinematography is beautiful, and the film is very well made.

This is a simple nice movie. This movie comes with comedy,sad and also a feelgood movie. Characters are good and nice songs and bgm. Allover it's simple great movie.

A filim that has really covered couple of points, that you would see in a low middle class family. (Trueness to exactly what Dyan shared in his interviews).

A thought on few reviews : Although you might find both Dhyan's and Saiju Kurup's character in the filim a bit awkward. I feel it is definitely a character you might see somewhere in Kerala(though may be 1 in many), So never can be considered imaginary.

If you can relate and get the thought that is conveyed throughout the filim, I feel, you can feel the filim worthy.

More a family movie. May feel a bit boring if you are watching with the exuberance of teen age.

It's a nice feel good movie .The performance of actors especially Dileesh pothan and Mathew was great. Also Shaan Rahmans BGM created a different ambience to the movie.

Such a simple movie with so much to offer. Very delicate subject. But i cried in lots of scenes.. Not becoz of sadness.. But seeing the love between the characters. Movies which deliver love between family or friends have always attracted me and i support this kind of movies. I think more of these kinds of movies should come for the new generation.. Apart from knowing the bad things happening in the world the new generation should also watch such movies which delivers the strength of relationships... I was waiting for this kind of movie from such a long time... Very happy that these kind of movies are coming up..

Applause to the entire team...
