    A good lighthearted film with good performances

    A good lighthearted film with good performances.

    I did not have high expectations before watching this, but this movie pleasantly surprised me !

    The premise, character development, cinematography, score all were top notch - story and screenplay were a bit light and stretched a bit (because the story was so very basic) but good none the less (they didnt try to fit in unnecessary side stories and songs to extend the story - which is commendable)

    The performances of all - especially Saiju Kurup, Sudheer Karamana, Sabareesh, Johnny Antony, Vrinda Menon. Nayana as the lead actress was ok and Siju Wilson was a bit over the top (But I guess, maybe it was written that way)

    A Clean Comedy After a Long Time!

    A classic clean family entertainer, one that wishes to see in the age of heightened social media upsurge.

    A family drama which unfolds in every frame one after the other, never a dull moment or slack. The entire casting is so perfect that one relates with it.

    Right from casting to the final editing, this movie is a fun to watch. A nice old age comedy entertainer nicely packaged!

    Kudos to the entire team!

    Good Entertainer

    Enough to laugh, nice clean funny film. A real family entertainer. Not at all boring, a must watch for entertainment.ot of surprises, twists and turn and unique in its humour... saiju kurup & jaffer idukki led the way with the credits equally well supported by all other characters. The best thing about the film is the realistic depiction of a village wedding, people and life in a village. Enjoyed the lyrics, song, music and character played by sabareesh varma! It's a wonderful family comedy movie. It keeps engaging throughout. Simple but thoroughly entertaining. Full Family Entertainer. Hilarious from start to finish. Must watch!

    A Delightful Surprise: Plenty of Laughs in an Unexpectedly Funny Movie

    The movie in question turned out to be a delightful surprise, offering plenty of comedic moments and solid entertainment value. Each of the characters played their roles with conviction, contributing to the overall entertainment of the movie.

    Initially, I had anticipated a less amusing experience, but the film exceeded my expectations and left me laughing throughout. The movie in question boasts a highly unpredictable twist element which some what amuses the viewers. Saiju Kurup is well suited for the 'gunda' character like this. All in all, it was a well-executed comedy that succeeded in delivering on its promise of entertainment.

    a typical comedy

    UGJ was a classic Mollywood comedy filled with many odd and humorous characters.

    The twists helped maintain the momentum, nonetheless, it's one of those movies you can forget after watching

    DELICIOUS

    -The story was quite fascinating, having an overly anxious uncle and a reluctant bride working at odds with each other.

    We were pleasantly entertained throughout the film and also fooled! As always having a big cast kept the show going

    -UGJ sent a soft warning on honoring people's choices in marriage or else...🤐

    -Arun Vaiga, the director, created a nice ambiance of the wedding venue; the guests and neighbors gave off celebration vibes, we were not bored at all

    -The supporting cast did a superb job, they were the ones spicing up the movie more than the lead actors.

    A special shout out to Johny Antony, Jaffar Idukki, and the picky photographers😁

    BLAND

    -Saiju Kurup had a repetitive facial expression that became tedious to watch

    -Most characters were designed in a typical way: there's always the unusual/nosy neighbors, a relative who acts weirdly, and the gossiping wives busy with their household duties.

    Would have been more intriguing to see some originality...
