    EXCELLENT WORK FROM AMAL NEERAD.....

    Great work from the whole team. The story highlights the History of people living in Munnar.

    And the formation of communist party in Munnar.

    The story also clearly tells the Life of Indian citizen under British rule. Also after the end British rule there is another type of British known as "Nadan British" . The one highlight is the Direction of this movie and also "BGM" plays an important role in this movie.. Everyone performance was excellent. .. OVERALL"A MUST WATCH MOVIE"..

    One of Finest work of Amal neerad

    One of the beautiful filim Malayalam filim industry ever made. From story to characterisation to songs to acting this movie made a bench mark. Can't praise enough for the director cum cinimatographer Amal neerad. Acting wise Fahad ,Lal,Jayasuriya,chemban and all other characters did their best. Cant stop mentioning the song rave.Its wonder. A must watch Malayalam movie I give 9/10. This is most underrated movie in Malayalam may be.

    Excellent.

    I had no idea what the movie was about before I started watching it. But it captures your attention from the word go and doesn't let up till the end. Am truly amazed by each aspect of this movie. The cinematography of course is top notch ... The visuals in each frame and angle of camera is really unique. Every character was built and portrayed really well. The story had so many different layers n sub plots... I think the songs were unnecessary and ruined the pace if the film. I did however love the fact that there was no undue drama in the climax and there were no long drawn dialogs as is typical in most movies. Definitely one of the best Malayalam movies i have seen in a very long time. Kudos to the cast n crew!
