I like romantic genre, but the storyline and direction was so silly and very very very very cringe. The frames and visuals were rich and gorgeous, but the movie feels like some rich kid wanted to waste his money and decided to write a cringe stupid movie. It is surprising to see so many paid fake reviews and ratings everywhere. I mean, are people blind or something? The whole story wouldn’t happen if Shuddhi’s character had at-least 2 brain cells left. This story should have been some low class daily tv serial. Why waste such amazing visuals and frames on cringe ultimate pro max story. Shuddi Ayodhya speaks bold things but her actions and choices are brainless, who would do such stupid stuff? That guy was so arrogant from day one, she was waiting to fall for him. Who goes behind some unknown man in an unknown town at midnight like she did, she was again flattered by a man just because he was helping someone gather fallen coal? There was constant desperation to create sympathy for Shuddhi throughout! Wake up, this works in serials, not in a movie we pay to watch. At least not in 2025 I am sure! Stop deceiving people and paying for fake reviews!

Loved it. Very well directed, thrilling and gripping plot and flow of events. Must say that the casting is perfect. I started without much expectations, but woah! The beauty of it is that it so subtle yet so thrilling that a family audience can also enjoy it, unlike many other movies that make things complicated just for the sake of making it a big film. A film can touch your heart when the revenge feels personal. And Joju George, omg I love this man! All the roles he has done are like a person we know so well, kudos to the relatable roles he has done till now, Giriettan on top of all it. The charm of Giriettan amplifies when it meets the aura of dearest Thrissur ❤️ The graceful affection and chemistry of the couple is soothing to watch. The macho effect comes effortlessly to Joju George.

The people who left negative reviews for the topic of the movie are exactly the men who come from households where this is normalized and glorified. Funny how they have the audacity to justify the toxic patriarchal customs they impose on their women.

Such a pointless movie. Haven’t watched such a horrible movie ever before. Who are these audience who gave 5 stars? Paid?

Wow! Cinematography and the visual pleasure was lit. The whole movie took me back into the setup of an epic tale well captured. The end left me enthusiastic about the second part. The first 20 minutes was disappointing because of the wrong cast of Rangapttinam Rangarani who couldn’t even deliver dialogues properly leaving audience cringed out. Her song was also embarrassing and didn’t match the movie, as if it was taken from a pathetic stage drama. Could have found a better way to rise the character of Valiban than showing Kellu Mallan and Mangottu Mallan look like jokers in the beginning. Rangarani’s cast and potrayal of Kellu Mallan and Mangott Mallan if corrected this would have been a movie loved by even the impatient audience who didn’t hesitate to shower bad reviews. It is however commendable how Mangott Mallan’s character evolved over the second half. Could see a Shaguni in him. Everything that seemed boring was relevant to set the plot and build the magnificence of the protagonist Vaaliban. Ashaan brought an element of surprise. Waiting for second part!

This brought disgrace to Manichithrathaazh ! Why would someone remake a movie with same story and bad acting and graphics. This was injustice to the marvelous job Manichithrathaazh crew did.

Would have been a much better experience if they casted someone else and not Arjun Kapoor. Such poor acting.. everyone else did really well.. He lacks that charisma that’s needed for epic characters..
