Very good story depicted by all the characters very naturally. Song too good! May be a bit slow in between. Overall a beautifully made movie.
While watching it now in 2023, just wondering this much COVID restrictions were really required or not. This film be more appreciated in the years to come.
1. A good tribute to the message of Ambedkar.
2. A touching story told without much ornamentations.
3. A Dalit renaissance convincingly portrayed.
4. A love story beautifully painted without much colors.
5. The storyteller leaves much of details to the imaginations of the moviegoers.
6. Brave directorial experiment.
7. Excellent cinematography.
8. Good cast and legible character dynamics.
Minus point: Slow pace to build the storyline.

One of the few movies which showed a common man's struggle in this pandemic period. Best thing about the movie is a song that comes in between. Cinematographer has done a very brilliant job too.
"Well, can't you just think that you have given your favorite to your best friend?" There is a scene in Mudi where with just one question a daughter dissolves her dad's year long ego. When people around him blamed him for his ego, his daughter supported his stand and made him smile. The girl who sketches Ambedkar, questions mom whether girls are being married to for washing dirty clothes, keeps no inferiority complex for her dad's job as a barber. This just one character makes you smile and fall in love with this movie.
The movie has been set in a rural islet in Covid time, with basic facilities such as roads or bridges, always left cut out from the rest of the world, such as a 'containment zone". The movie also portrays the politics of Ayyankali and Ambedkar's politics without losing its nuances.
You don't see body shaming or racial insults, or any condescending real life experience like you normally would see in movies. This movie has set a tone different from such practices. Beautiful frames and soulful music add colors to movie. Must watch.

The 42 minutes spent watching "MUDI" on Neestream will give you the satisfaction of enjoying a movie without getting bored.
Thanks Yassir Muhamed for giving a great movie experience.

Mudi will be taken as reference while retrieving the covid era. It's a thematic representation of a period in which people had been horrified with the pandemic. These elements were nicely executed in a movie. I hope more viewers will applause Mudi for its craftsmanship in future.
