Aravindante Athidhikal

A neat entertainment package with lots of emotions and realistic acting. Loved it. In fact this was worth more than the average rating and surprised me.

First of all, don't pay attention to negative ratings. They just don't understand how films should be made. Being a filmmaker, I can see all the hard work the team has put in to make this film. I'm don't understand Malayalam but this movie is a blend of many cultures. While majority of the movie is filmed in the divine heritage location like Kolluru, Karnataka they have also covered surrounding areas like Udupi and Western Ghats. There are so many great things about this film - the locations, story, performances, music and sweet yet balanced emotions. The protagonist Vineeth Srinivasan is a legend. He is not just an actor but wears many hats like producer, director, singer, scriptwriter. He has made full justice to his character. While the story is not dramatically different, the making is extra ordinary. Every scene is refreshing. The film lives by its human values. While most films these days promote alcohol, violence, negativity, films like this fills you with lot of positivity. Only when you understand the value of divinity, culture, relations and above all humanity, the world can be a better place.

This is Malayalam language film starring Vineeth Sreenivasan.

Set in Mookambika kshetram, it's a comedy film with the core being the wait of a son of his mother who abandoned him.

The film was getting boring just when Urvashi's entry and comic timing had you in splits!

The music is endearing.

The best part of the film is its unresolved questions, which keeps it realistic. Obviously the mother who abandoned and totally forgot her son deserves no sympathy but for the humanity she showed in at least apologizing to him and ending his wait. Entering the Devi kshetram along with her son to end that vacuum in his life.

But practically put, would such a woman bring trouble to her existing family life for this, most likely not. Hence why the ending the way it is is more credible.

The superb direction and cinematography, touching upon the cultural aspects of Udupi and Mookambika vicinity was a nice touch, which is why I gave it an extra star.

I rated it 10/10 in IMDB.

Family movie..good acting.. All of them made their best part.

Great emotional story.

Rewatchable any time..perfect ending.

Melodious songs and scenic shots can't be missed.

The movie is really beautiful, the cast was amazing and overall it's a feel good movie.
