Aavesham

As they were promised they did re introduce Fahad.

No one has ever seen FaFa like this. No one in the whole movie couldn't match with his energy and vibrant performance.

It was definitely an all and out Fahad movie.

Next thing should be mentioned is sushin shyam . He is now a brand, audience are gonna wait for sushin's music. People surely choose his movies not without taking another opinion.

Jithu madhavan is now on the list of most promising Malayalam Directors. His works gonna blow up in the future.

He can perfectly balance each emotion on its correct meter. No scenes were too emotional or cringey everything were perfectly balanced.

I don't wish to write a detailed, eloquent review for a film that only tries to present itself as a pure, no-holds-barred entertainer with just the right doses of everything (save for a romance). The character sketch of Ranga, along with an insane range of unpredictable emotions, is safe in the hands of FAFAA. He embodies the adorable, fun-loving thug with a penchant for violence (although he's under oath not to inflict any himself) like no other performer can, at least in Malayalam cinema. We've seen him play solemn, serious protagonists with consummate ease, but Aavesham gifts him the opportunity to fully embrace his zany side. If his foray into Tamil and Telugu cinema eventually led to him signing up for such an unhinged role in Malayalam, then I'm all in for those decisions.

The plot can be summed up in two or three lines, but director Jithu Madhavan is adept at keeping the proceedings tremendously enjoyable. As a result, we get a well-cooked mix of terrific action blocks, plenty of laugh-out-loud moments (major credit to Sajin Gopu), and even a little unexpected emotional depth to the protagonist. Sushin Shyam's songs and score are every bit an essential ingredient, without which, the mass moments would lack the necessary knock-out punch. The three guys who tag along with FaFaa also manage to hold up their end of the bargain, and their exchanges especially in the latter half, left me in splits. There are occasional signs of the screenplay running out of storytelling steam, but the fun factor never takes a dip. Once in a while, Malayalam cinema needs an injection of packaged entertainers like Aavesham where you slip into your most comfortable sitting position, clapping and hooting at the antics of an electrifying FaFaa.

WOW, MALAYALAM CINEMA IS ON ANOTHER LEVEL IN 2024. A PRETTY EXAMPLE OF WHY THEY WERE GREAT IN 2024 IS FAFA'S AAVESHAM. THE STORY IS PRETTY MUCH SOLID ENOUGH TO HOOK YOU UP. IT'S A POSITIVE THAT THE STORY DOESN'T HAVE THE STORY OF THE HERO BUT OF THE THREE BOYS WHO NEWLY JOINED COLLEGE. THE STORY IS WRITTEN VERY WELL IN THAT ASPECT. THOSE THREE BOYS WERE VERY GOOD OVERALL. THEIR ACTING AND THEIR STYLES WERE ENJOYABLE.

FAHADH FAASIL AS RANGA IN THIS MOVIE IS THE PILLAR. WHAT A CHARACTER THOUGH. EXCELLED BY FAFA. HE'S JUST AS AMAZING AS HE USED TO BE. I WOULD SAY, IT WAS MORE OF A NEXT LEVEL OF HIM.

THE BIGGEST POSITIVE OF AAVESHAM IS ITS COMEDY AND ITS UNIQUE NARRATIVE STYLE. THE NARRATION WAS VERY GOOD AND MAKE YOU ENJOY EVERY MOMENT OF THE MOVIE.

THE STORY DOES DEAL WITH RANGA'S PAST BUT THEY WERE CONVEYED REALLY WELL BUT IT BECOMES PROBLEMATIC IN THE THIRD ACT. THE FIRST TWO ACTS WERE SOLID BUT THE THIRD ACT DOES TAKE A DIP AND HAS A RUSHED ENDING.

ANOTHER POSITIVE OF THE FILM IS THAT WHENEVER WE EXPECT SOMETHING NEXT, THEY RULE US OUT AND GIVE US SOMETHING UNEXPECTED. THAT'S HOW UNPREDICTABLE IT WAS.

SUSHIN SHYAM'S MUSIC IS GOOD BUT NOT MEMORABLE. THE SONGS WERE REALLY GOOD.

OVERALL, A COMPLETE ENTERTAINER FROM MOLLYWOOD. THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST FILMS I SAW IN 2024.

RATING: 8/10

FINAL VERDICT: WORTH THE WATCH AND HAS GOOD REPEAT VALUE.

This is what you call a theatre experience. I don't think this film would have anywhere close to the impact it had in the theatre

Fahadh Faasil absolutely killed it, his screen presence is just too damn good. Its honestly a crime that he hasnt acted as a mass hero more often, such a blast everytime he was on screen.

As for the film more generally, the plot is almost non-existent but who cares. The music is genuinely brilliant, adding so much energy to the movie. The fight scenes are vibrant.

Something better would've to maybe flesh out the characters of Fahadh's sidekicks (e.g. Amban) a bit more, but considering the film is all about Fahadh we only really need his character to be nuanced and developed, which it truly is.

I can see Ranga becoming a cult character in the Malayalam film industry for sure, what a character, what a performance.

A must watch movie for action comedy lovers. This film is just pure entertainment nothing more or less than that. Fahad carried the protagonist character in shoulder throughout the movie. He is the real game changer. If you liked romancham then Aavesham will not likely tp disappoint you. This film will definetly satisfy the young ordinance and elders who enjoys films like rajamanikam or chattambinadu. The comedy scenes are so spontaneous and the action is well choreographed. At the soul of this movie lies in two things one is fahad's performance and the second is Sushin Shyam's music. Sushin's music uplifts the movie to another level. The film is technically too good.
