    Must watch movie ,,,, immaculate experience kaaneekaane

    I could not get my eyes off the screen the whole time . It showcases the human mind and how it will change for the situations. I was in awe for a really long time after I watched this master piece created by the director Manu Ashokan after his debut in Uyare. A perfect emotional rollercoaster.. iam still not out from the movie yet.

    A promising director and iam sure that he will create wonders in Malayalam film industry.

    The Malayalam film industry to stop flexing so much.

    Someone please ask the Malayalam film industry to stop flexing so much. Tell them they've made some really good movies for the next five years and that they need to let others catch up. I was looking forward to this movie and it didn't disappoint.

    The trailer looked like a family drama, but the genre listed was "Thriller". It's got drama and turns out, it's a thriller, it's a murder mystery, it's a story on relationships, morality, loneliness, forgiveness, revenge, and so on, everything so seamlessly edited together that'll make you go "Stop doing this to the other film industries xD"

    The acting - Suraj Venjaramoodu - somebody give him a national award, if he hasn't received one already. They owe him awards in back-payments from Android Kunjappan and before. Tovino and Aishwarya were really good also. The storytelling was really good, subverts your expectations, complemented really well by the editing.

    There are layers that keep shifting and you get to discover what this slowburn is all about. There are enough clues left here and there for you to guess something is going wrong. Blink and you'll miss.

    Would totally recommend.

    Is it the acting or the screenplay?

    Difficult to single it out, but worth a watch.

    Suraaj or Tovino, and Aishwarya too - play out their roles beautiful in this touching family drama. There is an element of mystery, just barely tho', 'cause that was an easy guess.

    Decent one - 7/10

    • This is a decent movie with unique story.


    • First half of this movie has its own mystery elements and second half is more of human emotions.


    • Suraj's acting was of different level. Not a fan of Tovino's acting, but this movie he really improved. Aiswarya Lekshmi was good.


    • This is not a 10/10 movie, but it's a decent one to watch.

    Excellent making

    The movie has an amazing story line and casting was very well hand picked. The concept, the making and the music... everything was on the proportion. Heart smiled and mind blown!

    • Trivia
      Director Manu Ashokan wished to have certain equipment for the shoot but it looked impractical as most of it had to be rented from out of the state which meant the technicians had to travel and be in quarantine before 14 days of the shoot. He was afraid this would affect the cost of production and decided to drop his plan. But the producer T.R. Shamsudheen saw to it that the equipment and technicians that the director wished for were available throughout the shoot.
