Malayalee from India

The first half of the movie is filled with combination scenes between Dhyan and Nivin, along with a lot of unnecessary political content that left me frustrated. I don't get what Anaswara Rajan's role significance the movie. When it comes to the second half, the movie deal with the a malayali outside india. Try to include a lot of emotional connect between an indian and pakistani. A sentimental drama they have tried to portray in the second half eventually made the audience numb with their feelings. It's surprising that the same writer and director of "Jana-Gana-Mana" created this movie. Personally, I found myself eagerly awaiting the interval during the first half and wishing for the movie to end during the interval. I wouldn't recommend watching this in theaters, but ultimately, the choice is yours.

Amazing movie ,Acting, Story plot .Comedy worked well and surely I can say this is nivin Pauly comeback movie of this year. We need to support this film as we supported manjummel boys , Aavesham and aadujevatham. Then only malayalam cinema will go up surely tamil audience will love this film Nivin acting and comedy is adipoli I'm sure his upcoming movies will have a huge responses from audience. The film explains about the friendship doesn't required caste religion and languages only love I'd enough to understand eachother the concept of the story is good and climax is heart touching. Nivin performed well.

Malayali from India became India vs Pakistan in a short while. It seemed to tell us so many stories and tranfer so many morals but ends up making the audience so much confused about where they were getting with all this. Be it political riots (Shine Tom Chacko brought some excitement), the reach of cricket, slavery in Arab countries, desert farming, educating girls, IS, COVID in remote areas. Not one theme could milk substantial emotions although each one has potential when explored properly, with depth and dedication.

Nivin Pauly acting in some areas were good and the bromance between him and Dhyan brought about few but fleeting moments of laughter. However, the audience couldn't escape from the lag. After some exceptional movies from mollywood in the past few months, this one certainly falls flat, in all areas. None of the songs nor the visuals seemed to have lasting, especially in contrast to aadujeevitham which had a similar setting, although it is an unfair comparison. In some areas, the background score, especially chenda melam use seemed to hit the right chords. Otherwise the movie had very less going for itself.

The first half was very weak. Nothing can be said good in it. But the second half has a lot of humourous stuff. Towards the climax the film goes controversial. The climax didn't really work for me as well. But the humour worked for me. It doesn't have clear plot that is the main issue. I felt the movie doesn't justify the name too. It has nothing to do with it. Ultimately it's a Dijo Jose Antony film, his plots are mainly based on the social issues. I just loved his films, he was the main reason that I watched this movie. I would say if he just removed the unwanted discussion of some social issues from this film and made it as a comedy film it would have been a lot better.

I don't know what they were trying to do with the movie. Other people in the industry are trying new concepts and styles and it felt like the writer and director are still stuck in the 6th century AD. Me as a viewer, is not interested in this topic anymore. Nivin was good. And that song felt like one of those fake photoshoots which pops up during Christmas and Onam(papanji+sanyasi+ustad). The two halves of the movie felt disconnected. My request to the writer is to try something new. Not all movies have to be about politics, people get frustrated by watching this over and over again. And I went in without watching the trailer, all the other promo videos were very misleading.
