Nandinee Murali

Really loved the direction of this movie. Panchara punch song is my all time favourite. Just like Naslen, I was in awe of the fight, the dance-like moves of Natasha and the ‘float like a butterfly, sting like a bee’ remained with me forever. I liked the fact that there was no coming back of the boys to conquer after a defeat, atleast in this movie, I do expect a sequel where this gang will come, eat and leave no crumbs. I mean, isnt it conventional, first half about defeat and after the interval, they toil, there will be tears, sweat and blood and then they emerge victorious? Im glad Alapuzha Gymkhana didnt follow that approach but rather just gave us a sneak peek into whats coming next! Waiting for the sequel!

A Mind numbingly illogical drag

What not to love in this movie! Tabu, Kareena n my new favourite Kriti! these 3 dominated the screen. Diljit's presence although brief was so strong. Honestly, if it was not for this 'crew', I doubt if I would have enjoyed watching this movie. I removed 1 star cause I think the direction, comedy and other neglected parts could have been made better. Really loved the songs too. Although, its high time Badshah stops ruining otherwise good songs.

I have a 20 month old baby and it was the first time we went to a movie with her. she slept for the first half and was up for the second half. Surprisingly she watched the movie quietly with us. And now she watched bits and pieces on Prime and she laughs at scenes we find funny. Coming to my review, this movie is a fresh take on goondaism, entertainment and comedy combined. Usually the fight scenes and machoism is shown by the hero and he takes all the limelight where audiences know what to expect. But here Amban, Ranga’s sidekick is shown to be the muscle which is very refreshing. Also the 3 college students are given equal screen time. People who have been giving bad reviews for alcohol and cigarette consumption, college life is the same. Boys hostel is no different from what is shown here. And the movie is not propagating that the kids get into local gangs or streetfights, rather it shows the adverse effects of it. The boys also dont touch alcohol when they are away in Tumkur studying. The dumb charades scene had us in splits. Sweety and beauty scene was hilarious portraying the innocense of the boys. Sweety’s 2 minute performance in romancham had me looking out for her next venture and she was awesome here too. Rangannnas eccentricity filled the screen. He was so loud as though he was on some drug the whole time. Lastly the boys only flunked 1 subject, Shanthan passed all the papers pointing out that they were indeed serious about their future and that the gangsters also made sure they never flunked otherwise get beaten up. I found 1 or 2 loopholes but overall a good entertainer. I want a part 2. Bibi is so cute. Eda mone bibi😂

This movie had me in splits throughout! Effortless comedy, full naturality! Even half n hour after the movie, I was replaying the comedy scenes in my head n laughing.

There was a time when I used to read reviews bfr going for a movie. Guess that wont work anymore. All the praises I see here seems to me as an ode to the Communist party, presence of which dominates the film! The plot line of Ayisha having to leave her hometown was not convincing. The Mamma character was superb. The movie’s name should not have been Ayisha… should have been Maamma.

I love movies where the antagonists have a story & you cant help empathizing with them, however at the end of the day you want your superhero to win. But not with Minnal Murali, despite me being a Murali, I did not care much for Tovino, the villain's portrayal was just mind blowing. I really want him to win some award for his amazing performance. Whoever I spoke to also share the same belief. The movie is really good too with some humour scattered here and there. there are one or two really good laughs too. I also love how its not just the superhero saving the village but other individual significant contribution. The VFX is also commendable, not over the top like the Marakkar Siddiq & Mohanlal floating atop 2-3 logs of wood in the sea-scene.. this movie is a breath of fresh air the Malayalam industry was lacking since a looooong time. I know for sure there is going to be a 2nd part, please do not disappoint!

Hated how she dumped the perfect sensible guy with no remorse at the alter and the audacity with which she punched his mother for being rude to her mother. Yikes. Who wrote the story?

Such an eye opener this movie was! I was mad at my father & had not spoken to him for a week ( we are miles away from each other and have been constantly bickering about some family issues) Saw this movie and immediately called him up. I couldn’t help tearing up watching Indrans’ performance. Simply Outstanding! The setting & the home is simply beautiful with lush green plants, you almost start to relax and forget you are watching a movie. This movie deserves all the awards that are out there.

I was left befuddled by the end of this movie. I guess I was expecting a closure. Well not everything in life can have a closure and this movie is nothing less than life. Even waking up the next day I felt pity for the characters :( This movie is just a glimpse of the innocent folks getting fried having caught unaware in the midst of a dirty game that is Politics!
