Vishesham

A small movie reflecting on the societal taboos on marriage convention and planned parenthood.

The story revolves around Shibu Bhaktan,an NRI retunee who has settled in his hometown with Organic Farming and Transformation coach as a passion. The plot of the story is on the marriage institution,Parenthood, Relationship and the societies and families old style beliefs and take on it.

Sooraj Tom has pulled of the story convincingly by putting light onto the real emotions and trauma that the married couples has to undergo under the aforesaid situations.

He has also pointed on the mental and emotional support that couples need to have for one other and to face life together with positive affirmations and determination.

The subject put forward by Sooraj Tom & Anand Madhusoodanan who has penned the story is very relevant and to the point in this status quo.

A small feel good movie with a message.

Just like the title "vishesham", the film is also a good vishesham to the Malayalam movie industry. With less familiar faces playing the major roles , the movie points out the marital problems that the society is facing.

The Filmmakers have done an excellent job by keeping the story line simple and convincing. Every Actors in the movie have done their best work.

What made me like the film was there were no unnecessary scenes, songs or comedy to make the film more appealing. Every scene in this movie was made with realism and natural emotions .

As an enjoyer of the malayalam movie industry , i say that this movie can be said as an example of good new Gen cinema.

Started watching this movie with low expectations and went out well. I have enjoyed the movie whole throughout.

Vishesham movie revolves around a couple in 30s facing infertility issues and their struggles and hope. Comedy, Sentiments and Drama worked out well whole. Sooraj Tom's execution and narration to Anand Madhusoodanan's script was pretty good. The scriptwriter played the main lead and he was good in his acting but his shaking off head in every dialogue was little awkward. Chinnu who played the female lead portrayed her character very well. She was charismatic and played the emotional part very well.

Music was good and soothing. The camerawork was not so brilliant but was etched with the movie.

All the characters in the movie was good and they really played their part well. I loved most of the dialogues in the movie. Some of the scenes were hilarious. And also, i loved the part were the movie conveyed so many messages in the dialogues and also with their actions.

Baiju, Althaf Salim, Johny Antony, Vineeth Thattil and cameo by Dileesh Pothan played their roles well.

All in whole, a good light hearted comedy that worked in conveying a social message which is relevant at this stage of our livelihood.

Vishesham is a simple and average movie. The plot that deals with second marriage and pregnancy issues is pertinent and at times engaging. The main drawback of this movie was the male lead, his acting works for the initial bits to show vulnerability, but as soon as emotions kick in, his acting is really poor. This becomes even more apparent next to the female lead, who is really good and believable, and the male lead in those parts struggle. Besides that the other characters don't really get a chance to contribute as their arcs are poorly written and embedded into the movie. All in all, a decent subject, poorly acted and conceived in a pretty average way.

"Vishesham" is a refreshing take on a sensitive topic like infertility, presented in a light-hearted manner that resonates well with audiences. Anand, in his debut role, delivers an amazing performance that surprises viewers. Chinnu Chandni also shines once again, adding depth to the narrative.

The music and background score by Anand are highlighted as top-notch, enhancing the emotional impact of the story. Director Sooraj deserves praise for taking a light concept and executing it perfectly, making it accessible and engaging for the audience. The casting of Anand in a leading role was a bold move that pays off, as his portrayal adds authenticity to the characters, making them incredibly relatable for a middle-class family.

Overall, "Vishesham" emerges as a must-watch for families, offering a blend of realism, heartfelt storytelling, and memorable performances. It successfully challenges stereotypes and provides insightful perspectives on the issue of infertility, making it a standout film in its genre.

This is an outright chinnu chandhinis performance movie. She has acted wonderfully well. If you want to watch a very good movie in 2 hours then this is for you ,with some soulful music and story that could be happening in your neighborhood.

Anand who has debuted in the movie has done a good job. His music and screenplay is also good. The story runs without any lag and engaging us with emotions of the main leads. Feeling their happiness, pain and joy. Sooraj toms direction has been very good with this one.

The simplicity of the movie is so relatable and enjoyable.

Do watch it in theaters to enjoy the feel of the movie.

Vishesham takes us on a very less-talked about journey of life-after-marriage. The film shines in its simple and straightforward story-telling and very well-developed characters.

Anand, although a first-time actor has a natural aura around him that shines throughout the movie. Chinnu, as always delivers a phenomenal performance. You keep watching them both with awe. Both their performances capture the essence of their character, that many of us can surely connect with.

The movie talks about the struggles and pain a couple might go through. And especially the emotional-connect that they have (or should have) to overcome these in life. The need for family and the strength one pulls from family-members and friends is also portrayed nicely.

Overall, Vishesham is a very feel-good film that will stay with you long after the credits roll. With a lot of humour and true-to-life story-telling, it connects the right dots all the way to the end.

A very good family feel good movie with lot of humers, emotions, musics background score, photography etc..The storyline of the movie is incredibly relevant to current times, bringing such an important issue to the big screen. Having many friends and family who have faced infertility issues, your movie resonated deeply and provided a powerful message. It was not only a treat to the eye but also a significant contribution to the conversation around this sensitive topic.

Shiju and Sajitha was ausom.. Everyone did their part incredibly well.. Congrats to the Director Sooraj Tom and all the teams for this wonderful movie.. 👍💐

Vishesham is a delightful feel-good movie that showcases the warmth and humor of family life, featuring great acting from the cast. The story beautifully explores how the couple navigates hardships while celebrating everyday joys. What I admired most was the strong support and love between the husband and wife, which adds a heartwarming touch to the film. Their bond highlights the importance of standing by each other through challenges, making it easy for viewers to connect with their journey. Overall, it's an uplifting film that leaves you feeling happy and inspired. Definitely recommend this movie!

Oh my God - who is Anand Madhusoodanan and where was he hiding all these while. Just 5 min into the movie I was stunned with how likeable he was and how well he was acting. As the movie ended about 2 hours later I couldn't forget him. Rarely have I been so impressed with a performance by an unknown actor.

This is a wonderful plot and a very well made movie. Chinnu is exemplary in her role. Anand and Chinnu have 90% of the screen time and it's a pleasure to watch them emote.

The direction and writing is such that every actor excels and you just get the feel good vibe throughout. Althaf is as funny as ever, Ann Jameela is excellent in her short presence, Baiju is unbelievably cute, Parvathi stuns in her role - well everyone shines.

This is a MUST WATCH movie for all the right reasons.
