Padakkalam2025

This film's the definition of concept over budget/star power. The whole thing took place in two locations, with no songs or tropes, and meta humor that didn't feel like it was thought out by execs in their 50s. Only makes me believe harder in how Malayalam films are palate cleansers for all the trash Bollywood throws our way each year... while still earning tenfold the amount back. ps: never expected a dog day afternoon and pushpa reference to co-exist in the same film. 😭
