Sufiyum Sujatayum

An offbeat love story between a Sufi Saint and mute Hindu girl which I was extremely excited to watch. From the plot till narration style everything was great. But what I didn't get was the magic of the screenplay. It may be because I am too obsessed with Mani Ratnam's work that I search his unique magic in every love story. So, the main highlight of the whole film were the performances especially the chemistry between the two lead characters Dev Mohan as a Sufi Saint with an infectious smile and non other than Aditi Rao Hydari as mute girl with a unique charm. The expressions delivered by her in few frames are just phenomenal, I remember last time I enjoyed the same charm was in Mani Ratnam's Kaatru Veliyidai. Moreover, the visuals and locations in contrast with the addictive music are really great. Especially, the camera work of each and every minute details from the frame. Be it a drone shot of a Sufi dance or the close up shot of a longing girl. But the thing which could have been better was the Screenplay. If the Screenplay would have been a little better then this would have stand out from the rest of the Romantic Fairy Tales. Moreover, the idea, the attempt and the performances were great. You can give it a watch as a visual retreat.

Nice movie 👌with feel-good presentation... Intresting lovestory with low pase.. especially visuals and Bgm also songs are mind-blowing...

Sufiyum Sujatayum is a pretentious film that aspires to be a lot but falls desperately short. The narrative is stretched, tedious and downright boring in parts.

It isnt helped by the fact that the two leads, Dev Anand (who plays a Sufi) and Aditi Rao Hydari (who plays a mute village lass) are both one-dimensional in their performances.

Although Siddique, Manikandan Pattambi and Jayasurya shine in their limited roles, the viewer is never able to buy into the core love story and root for the unlikely pairing.

The film offers some soulful music and some fine visuals, but ends up being another disappointment from Prime's recent slew of direct-to-digital releases.

Not recommended.

It is not at all a great movie as reviewed by many. It is ony an above average love story made with a mischievous motive. There is no logic in the story. However acting by every one is quite good. Cinematography is excellant.

Very amateurish and mediocre movie in every aspect. I quit watching it after about 30 minutes.
