Godha

This movie is basically a story of a girl who loves wrestling and comes to Kerala from Punjab to fulfill her dreams.

This movie went in a perfect pace. It showed us the value of wresting in Kerala. The movie had comedy, a good story and wresting. This movie was a good family entertainer. I liked the acting of the hero and Renji Paniker. The heroine could have improved in some places. Rest of the characters did a great job in this movie. Maybe the ending had something to do with dangal but without any superstars this movie did a great job to shine in the theaters. This movie was not dragged like most of the Malayalam movies. It had nice unforgettable songs too.

Yes I would suggest this movie to everyone I know there has been many wresting movies in India now but this movie is worth a onetime watch.

Notable Acting

Renji Paniker famous for his movies like Jacobs kingdom, ohm shanthi osana, picket 43 and many more.

Tovino Thomas famous for his movies like Ennu ninte mohideen, Charlie and many more.

My Rating 8/10

Godha narrates the story of anjaneyadas(tovino thomas) who is sent by his father captain (renji panicker) to a college in punjab for studies. There he befriends a punjabi girl adithi(wamiqa gabbi). Adithi dreams to be a wrestler but doesn't get support from her brother who is a police officer. One day das gets into a tussle with her brother and das goes back to kerala fearing her brother. Few days later, adithi enters kerala and meets das. Das makes her stay in his home. Captain who is a wrestling coach realises adithi's talent and trains her to be a wrestling champion. Rest of the film is how adithi becomes a champion. Tovino underplays as das, renji panicker gives his another best performance after jacob. Wamiqa gabbi is the star of the film who shines in acting and action. Film has lot of comedy which keeps the film lively. Shaan rahman's music and bgm is an asset. Cinematography is very great. Basil joseph makes another good village entertainer after kunjiramayanam. But the story is predictable and has a dejavu factor of dangal and sultan. On the whole godha is a sports comedy entertainer.

The basic theme is wresling and women empowerment similar to the Movie Dangal. However the enire story is different and picturised in a light hearted manner. Casting is excellent and Wamiqua as heroine is wonderful choice since she looks authentic and sweet.Tovino as hero shows progress and promise, I cant imagine anyone else other than him from Malayalam industry now in this role. The background music by Shan rahman is raises the film to another level. Overall nice moie experience. And Basil as the direcor done far better after his debut 'Kunjiramayanam' and shows good cinematic sense now.

As when we watch trailer of the movie or the starting we may feel its a recreation of Dangal but then it changes the feel of the movie. I never expected a such wonderful and colorful movie from the Director Basil Joseph.

About the cast, everyone has played a wonderful roles in the movie with perfect timing in comedy & in emotionally scenes. A new actresses is also introduced in this film who played a energetic role in this film. In the case of Tovino and Renji had one of the main roles had played it so well that when Renji Paniker speaks we may get goosebumps.

About the music, Shaan Rahman has proved his excellency in this film. Great Songs and background score as well. As i didn't like some songs in this movie but i'm sure most the people will like.

Overall its good movie which can be viewed by families and contains no adult contents and i hope the people will surely enjoy it...

Sorry if any mistakes and this review will not applicable to every viewers.

Despite coming after dangal many people confusing this is a rip-off.but this movie in the production way before even dangal started.

I like Malayalam movies for there natural screenplay style this is a story about a Punjabi girl who wants to fulfill her father dreams become successful wrestler to show the world woman can do all kind of sports & Malayali man who don't want to continue his father legacy as a successful wrestler so fate brings this two together with love how there life changes said in emotional,joyful,enjoyable way the cast is amazing especially wamiqqa gabbi,tovino thomas&renji panicker dedicated in their wrestler roles,beautiful cinematography,eloquent score&songs what's more to ask this is been my fav list still i watch often never gets bored to see it i'll recommended anyone who wants to see good slice of life Indian cinema this one for you...
