Without doubt worst film of 2024. Director/writer should have spend more time on story, dialogues, characters, casting and direction. Just shows how immature, and inside the bubble this writer lives. Trying to recreate MohanLal-sreenivasan vibes with the same old dialogues was really cringe. Bromance has a limit, after that it simply looks gay. Can't blame as the writer can't write what he doesn't know. Music is without aim, some rampant notes played like a roller coaster without any soul at all. Pranav was really bad. If the director truely loved that character would never cast him. But the character is not important, priority is to get these actors together. Dhyan was amazingly good for a badly written and executed movie that makes his attempts in vain. It's an irony, making a movie about a smart director on screen, by a director who has close to no skills at all. You want to know why nepotism sucks, and why the general public state they don't deserve it? Watch this crap. Dhyan, Pranav and NP pls stay away from Vineeth. Vineeth, you are a great singer, good actor for offbeat characters. Please stick to it. Your direction and script writing is progressively getting bad. Stop wishing for claps, applause and money, wish for respect and see your life change.
The story is great, the script is gripping not the dialogues. But had a great time watching this. The kind of movie you don't get to see often in Malayalam, especially because a director has worked his ass off.
Acting is mediocre; terrible slang. Fahad is clearly not up to the mark, the director who is also a professional editor has brilliantly hidden Fahad's face in some emotional scenes because he failed. Well in his defense the 'old man' make-up sucked and someone should have reminded him to not talk and walk in his usual metropolitan style, he seriously needs to forget how he looks in the frame. Disappointed again.
Vinay Fort is way better, maybe because his character has an arc. Nimisha is way better than Fahad. Appani Ravi could have used more screen time since he is better than most of the cast.
I would love to watch more projects of this girth. Expect to see better casting. Still better than most of the movies today.

G Aravindan master has always tried to separate and define spirituality from religiousness. I think he finally carved out his definition with this movie. The characters are subtle and sharp. There are no confusions about ambitions or about morality. 'Immoral' dosent always mean 'unspiritual' like the way our society has made it today. Presence of Late Smitha Patel makes the movie unique. Great effort and great accomplishment.
