Arike

All have acted well in this amazing piece of romantic drama. Realism is defined, love is defined, the characters are defined - absolute!

It is not the usual drama wherein boy meets girl, they quarrel and make love and blah blah. It gives a moral. A moral of true love.

It is a 21st century love story where you realize that true love is not only hard to find but hard to realize. And not everything goes by the wish of the viewer. The plot is independent and magnifies the theme which it intends to practice. No bull, no crappy scenes, no vulgar slangs, just pure cinema, this one!

And the movie doesn't strive hard to please the audience. It has GOT the charm to do it! Mind-blowing & Bold!

Watch it for Samvritha & Mamatha! A must watch!

Good sceipt,good story Story really pointing out how to find a good person Awsme acting by dilip and mamta Excellent work

A realistic story of love and friendship. It's Shyam's one of the best work and the terrific chemistry of Mamta and Dileep uplifted the movie to next level.

Shyama Prasad is one of the best young generation directors in Malayalam cinema

Arike is a film that dwells on love and friendship.Its a gently paced movie,but very realistic one. Dileep (shanthanu),the protagonist is in love with Samvrutha (Kalpana),but has some doubts whether she has the same intensity in the affair. Kalpana's friend, Mamtha Mohandas (Anuradha) is a messenger or mediator in their relationship and thinks Shanthanu and Kalpana are the final lovers in the world. How Anuradha regains the faith in the existence of love is the central theme of the movie. The dialogues are penned the same way most lovers speak in this part of the world,and i have not seen such an attempt before.

I recommend it for those who don't want the movie to be an pacey bullet train,but a soulful cycle ride.

The movie was a total surprise to me. It is kind of sweet and romantic. Direction is really good, but I can't say it was totally brilliant since the climax and the ending scene was totally hasty and unconvincing. But what shook me was the acting, by all the actors. The three lead actors have done an amazing job, and I would totally recommend the movie.
