Was disappointed after seeing a Blessy movie after a long time. Actually, I had no expectations about the movie because I know that no one can visualize a whole novel within a few hours, and it has its limitations. But, when they took the name of it "Aadujeevitham", they could have been honest. Of course, actors Prithviraj and Gokul put an exponential effort into the physical transformation for this film [ highly appreciable].
Prithviraj could only transform physically as Najeeb and acted like good as always.
When I read the book I felt a soul inside the character, but it was missing. I think it was the wrong decision that they made to visit Najeeb only after finishing the movie.
The connection between Najeeb and the goats was insane (which was beautifully narrated in the novel). He lived a horrible life over there for years, being one among the goats. That's why Benyamin gave that name. This core wasn't even mentioned in the movie. They focused more on romance in the first half, which badly affected the time in which they could show the transformations. Cinematography was also appreciable.
Moreover, they could only exhibit a 'pravasi', not Najeeb, one who is familiar to me in Adujeevitham.
