As the name sounds, this is a mystic movie. Actually if you think, there's nothing new. And the story is somewhat typical. But it's music, editing and some other technical aspects given this the state it deserves. Enjoyed every minute.

After watching its clueless trailer, I thought it to be another misfire from aashiq Abu after gangster and rani padmini but I was wrong. Before mayanadhi, the last time I saw a realistic love story in malayalam was Annayum Rasoolum. Mayanadhi narrates the complicated and poignant love story of a runaway criminal Maathan and struggling actress aparna. Tovino, aishwarya and rest of the cast performed their roles well but the real show stealer is soubin who proves that for an actor only one scene and no dialogues are enough to strike an impact among audience. Climax leaves a lump on your throat. You feel like a fresh air coming slowly on your face while watching mayanadhi. Maayanadhi is Aashiq Abu's best work till date.

I'm a avid follower of Malayalam film industry, I make sure I do my research before going into the cinema but then came Mayaanadhi I didn't knew anything about the plot as it was keep as a secret by movie team but still I went for this movie as after a very long time I was excited about a movie release, movie's music and trailer has played an important role in building by excitement
Narration is non- linear, all actors have done justice to their roles stand out being Tovino, Aishwarya, Lijo Jose, Leona and Soubin Shahir with a brilliant cameo (impressed they way Soubin character played without single dialogue but powerful cameo), if dark movies showing realities is your cup of tea, please don't think just go for it. If you are more into masala movies you may not understand or enjoy this movie, this is a pure director movie Aashiq Abu had full control over this movie movie has his stamp all over it and climax is spine chilling, Aashiq has made Mathen immortal with such brilliant climax, another highlight is the shooting locales and cinematography, The Panoramic Gateway, Kochi Metro, Streets of Kochi and Mc Donalds beautifully shown and wisely utilized, Sarcasm, satire and black comedy is used to maintain some lighter moments in tense situations
Will definitely watch this movie again if given opportunity, Thank you Aashiq for giving this masterpiece, I'm listening its music on loop Rex Vijayan another plus of this movie. Still the climax haunts movie hope there is a good sequel someday

Mayaanadhi is more about morality than it is about romance, yet at the end your heart aches for the latter. And that is the biggest problem with Aashiq Abu's mostly ambitious, but sometimes pretentious, drama about a naive young man (Tovino Thomas) and an aspiring actress (Aishwarya Lekshmi) who are in a casual relationship and who are unable to decide whether to commit to it or not. There's an authentic attempt at describing the plight of youngsters and millennials of today who are unable to commit to anything, be it love or work or passion. Thomas's character is someone who got into bad company thanks to his directionless childhood, whereas Lekshmi's character has shades of social awkwardness and depression - all of which have been captured with essence by Abu and writer due Dileesh Nair and Syam Pushkaran. However, Abu's try at this subtle art falls flat when his two main actors put up a show that is hardly natural or convincing. Both Lekshmi and Thomas are lethargic in their portrayal, and despite achieving the impossible in some sequences, seem to falter at some crucial points. These crucial points in the film are also the ones that are truly commonplace, and go against the subtle dramatic grain of Mayaanadhi. It's a dull atmosphere overall, with some boost added by Rex Vijayan's music and an electrifying performance by Ilavarasu. There are also these short sequences that are bound to put a smile on your face, but that obviously never happens in the lead characters' faces anytime in the film. Just a notch above average. TN.

Mayanadi is a malayalam language romantic drama film directed by Aashiq Abu and written by Syam Pushkar and Dileesh Nair.
It is a fact that the script of the film is weak but it is not a bad script.Love is floating throughout the film.
Most of the actors have done justice to their roles especially Tovino Thomas who has done the role of Mathan brilliantly.
Aashiq Abu has beautifully directed the movie.It is probably the best directional venture of him.
Rex Vijayan has once again won in understanding the tone of the film and composing music in that tone.The song "Uyirine Nadye" really has no tune but the composing of Rex Vijayan has made it a beautiful song.
Cinematographer Jayesh Mohan does'nt had to do much movement with camera but he has beautifully captured the visuals especially the visuals at night.
Mayanadi is a beautiful love story that is watchable for all people especially those who love love stories

Like all romantic movies, this one dares to recreate a realistic and gruesome love story of a softhearted boy who struggles to win over difficult situation boldly but succumbs at the hands of heartless people around him who consider love a trap certifying it a taboo. In the end, inspires hope with the suffering of lonely lover wearing a crown which has become meaningless.

The only things came good from this movie were the songs as well as the opening 20-25 minutes. The rest is illogical and unrealistic. Tovino character had no consistency and the effort from the female lead wasn't convincing either. And the Tamil cops didn't make any sense to me. It's not family friendly by the way and it has annoying stereotyping. I don't recommend it, but this movie will be liked by much new gen, It's just the way it is. Its a 5/10 movie for me.

Watch it anytime in your life but make sure you watched it 👈🏻. Love Story + Konjam Tension and then comes a Jivunnu Oru Climax. Film has some important Tamil Artist and almost half of the film influenced by Tamil, watch our ilavarasu Plays his role like a King and others also done good job. Ashiq Abu who directed Ranipadmini, Virusand etc I noticed a peculiar thing in him he loves Directing and he does that only he has not written his films almost all or many but he only Directs and Man he dictate Terms in what he does 👌🏻. Surprise is we get to see a extended cameo by Director Lijo Jose Pellissery

Mathan (Tovino) is on the run after accidently killing policeman. He is in love with Aparna (Aishwarya), a struggling actress who does not trust him due to an incident in the past.
Mathan keeps meeting her in order to woo her and at the same time the police are closing on in him.
The story is well presented and you feel for the love of mathan and Aparna. The cinematography is excellent.
Tovino and Aishwarya are amazing and they have excellent chemistry which eleviates the movie.
The supporting cast perform well but the person who stands out with a 1 minute screen time is Soubin Shahir. Just loved his cameo specially since it was sudden and unexpected and performed well.
The climax is heart breaking but you will enjoy it.

'Mayaanadhi' is undoubtedly one of the best movie watching experiences I ever had.
The screenplay, music and performances gives it a mystic touch.
One of the best background scores in a romantic movie.
Performances are very realistic and relatable.
It's really difficult to tell what you feel at the end of the movie. You just have to experience it.
Highly highly recommended.

I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. Different from the usual love stories, this is more new gen love story, directed ably by Aashiq Abu.Very focused movie, no unnecessary tangential lines to the story. Tovino was good with controlled acting, madly in love with his girl to the end.

Poignant love story that will leave you in tears. The couple has a great chemistry in this movie. If you are looking for a feel good romantic movie to watch over the weekend. Just go for it. It will make your day. Great acting by both the lead characters, Tovino Thomas and Aishwerya lakshmi. Music is also good. College portion could have been more. It would have reached more people if the Tamil dubbed version is available in ott. The plot is kind of unique and didn't remind me of any other movie. I ended up watching this movie after watching Aishwarya in Ponniyin selvan and Ammu. Kudos to the director as well.

The promos of 'Mayaandhi' didn't reveal much about the plot of the film and was more or less confusing without any high-point in particular to evoke excitement in the mind of the audience.On the contrary,Mayaanadhi,the film is an intense and emotional romantic thriller that offers a haunting cinematic experience making it undoubtedly one among the best feature films to come out from Mollywood this calendar year.
The screenplay scripted by the duo of Dileesh Nair and Syam Pushkaran is top-notch and utilizes subtle humor and real emotions to deliver an utterly realistic romance that's presented in the best possible way by Aashiq Abu who has created yet another passionate handiwork after his 2015 drama film 'Rani Padmini'.The narrative by Aashiq is riveting and utilizes its realistic pace to make us root for the lead characters Mathan and Appu in just few minutes into the presentation.
Mollywood has seen many intense romances in the past,but Mayaandhi will be long remembered for its uniqueness in expressing bold statements like "sex is not a promise" without being offensive for any section of the audience.The best thing about the romance here is that its volatile like every other real life romance and the subtle variations in the relationship has been presented brilliantly without any element of melodrama and cinematic masala.There are plenty of satirical one-liners that exposes the social scenario of today and the writer duo have worked-out them pretty well to evoke smiles from such social commentary bits without losing the element of thought underneath.
The movie can boast of the career best act by Tovino Thomas who has given out a splendid act as Mathan who is madly in love with the female protagonist Appu.Aishwarya Lekshmi who debuted earlier this year with the Nivin Pauly starrer 'Njandukalude Nattil Oridavela' has done a brilliant job as Appu,a struggling actor in the industry.All the supporting performances were impressive with notable ones being that of Leona Lishoy,Harish Uthaman and Ilavarasu.
This review will be incomplete without penning atleast a line about Rex Vijayan who has created a stunning background score and 4 haunting songs that uplifts the mood of the film big time.The solo 'Mizhiyil' sung by Shahabaz Aman is an awe-inspiring work that's sure to be in the playlist of music lovers for long time.Jayesh Mohan's frames were literally poetic and complimented the beauty of the narrative.Edits by Saiju Sreedharan were good.
Overall,Mayaanadhi is a brilliant on-screen romance that's not to be missed from the big screens this holidays.Go for it!

Inspired by Breathless but with a soul that's grounded in Kochi. Tovino and Aishwarya gives fantastic performances as the lead pair.Even though there have been a lot of films that have Kochi as a predominant location, no films have managed to show it so beautifully. Especially the roads under the metro rail which I've wondered in the last few months why this beauty isn't explored by filmmakers. Music is another department that exelled in convaying the emotions which stays after the film. There are some minute treatments in characters and plot which are quite important considering Malayalam film industries' general approach towards several subjects.
