Well, this film prolly had more positives than I imagined after first watch. First of all, it is so fucking simple and relatable. The tension, jealousy, friendship, bonding, ego, awkwardness, middle class issues making inferior complex ,everything... is so simple and relatable. Didn't expect at all from an indie film. Tho the music felt experimental(might be coz I'm not familiar with Malayalam music), it was excellent. Compared to other language films(excluding Tamil and hindi), from which I had felt a lil bit off whenever a song comes, this was good. The music suited the scenes way well than what one cld imagine after hearing the album. And background score was definitely an unique one that made this experience even better. And then, the comedy. The whole cinema runs on a typical comedy that keeps you engaged all the time. Every actor did their job at the best! Shyam mohan and Sandeep pradeep specifically. Wt an acting. And then, mamitha... 😊 Tbh I just watched the movie coz of her. And it was worth it too. Her acting was exceptional. Might be coz her irl character is the same too. But idc, I just enjoyed it. Her character is also so grounded and realistic. And that's what made movie more entertaining and a lil tense feeling abt whether he cld get her or not. She cares, mocks(sometimes), checks whether he is loving her or not at one incident, playful, charismatic, self centered, kind, loyal, gives off mixed signals, gives idgf vibes sometimes, and a strong independent female lead character. And mamitha did it so fucking realistic. There were parts in the film where I was feeling the same emotions as the protagonist just coz her acting is so relatable. She behaves as a friend throughout the film. It felt very real. And that car proposal scene... 🤌 In telugu, at that scene, she says nenu choosukuntanu. And that's it. That slo mo started for me right from then. Buttttt..... that airport scene... it didn't feel that good. There needed to be a even more good transition to that emotion. It felt a lil numb compared to the whole cinema. Idk, but that hug was too direct and there wasn't any spotlight to how he feels abt it. It felt way relatable until then. Maybe coz am inexperienced in that thing. But still, there was a numbed feeling. But still it was way good. Time spent well. Laughed a lot, felt good. So, yeah.
