Behind the scenes:
Jude Antony did exceptionally well in keeping the story simple and realistic.
Cinematography by Vinod Illamapally did many new experiments and is a visual treat with some awesome techniques never tried in malayalam movies.
Editing by Lijo Paul need to be specially mentioned, as it was blended nice with each moments.
Music is done by Shaan Rahman. From his entry to industry he has gifted beautiful songs one after the other and he continue to do so. Some lovely tracks worth listening.
About the Cast:
Nazriya Nazim as Pooja Mathew, the centre role did her best performance till date. All her love for Giri, tension, thoughts, emotions were spot on.
Nivin Pauly as Giri was perfect for the role. A mature macho delivering splendid performance.
Ranji Panicker as Dr.Mathew was not the best for the role. But the love of people towards him as a director will keep his faults aside.
Aju Varghese as David was brilliant. For the first time he was not a sidekick for the hero but against it, did justice to his role.
Vinay Prasad as Rachel, did justice to her character.
Vinneth Sreenivasan as Dr.Prasad was brilliant and "the cunning boy" was spot on.
Lal Jose as Jacob Tharakan was another role which has brought out the good actor inside an awesome director.
All the other casts did well and no one made a dull performance.
Should You Watch:
A love story from a girls perspective, has been shown the best way. Now filthy dialogues, no double meaning lines, another movie that could be easily seen with family(Love stories now a days are hard to watch with). Colourful movie, awesome songs, brilliant acting, there are lot of things worth watching. Some lags here and there but never made ME boring to watch. Kudos to whole crew.
Cant get out the song "Kaatu Moolio Pranayam..." out of my head. I've been rhyming since i left outside theatre, and so was my friends. As always final decision is yours...!!! :D
My Rating: 4.5/5
