Anugraheethan Antony

BIG ZERO...

It's disgrace to malayalam films..Please don't make such movies.

Only the song was good...Rest everything waste Don't waste ur time on this movie.

Over use of slo-mo was irritating. Felt some lag throughout the movie. Comedy scenes were really good. Acting was cringe sometimes.

I just likes the overall concept of the movie. It gives a good watchable experience and at the second half the melodrama is in its full swing(a bit over).

It is a nice feel good movie with well executed emotional scenes. The main highlight of the movie was it's songs.

One of the sleeper hits amongst the handful of theatre releases this corona season, Anugraheethan Antony is a heartwarming one-time watch that will leave you with a smile on your face.

Sunny Wayne stars as the the eponymous 'Antony', a carefree young studio proprietor who enjoys life in a sleepy village amongst his friends and wisecracking dad, played by a terrific Siddique.

There, he has a chance encounter with an aspiring artist Sanjana, played by girl-next-door Gouri G Kishan, who most Malayalees are smitten with after her eyecatching performance in 96.

Peppered with soul-stirring music (the chartbuster 'Kamini' is my favorite song this year), a picturesque setting and stunning camera work, Anugraheethan is a breeze to watch even though the script lacks depth in many places.

Sunny Wayne's limited acting chops is a major drawback, while Gouri G Kishan has very few scenes to make an impact. Manikandan K Achari, Suraj Venjaramoodu and Jaffer Idukki shine in their limited roles and it is the supporting cast that renders a lot of the authenticity and rustic simplicity that makes this movie appealing.

Despite its shortcomings, Anugraheethan has its heart in the right place and alongwith a unique narrative style and aesthetics, is a definite one-time watch.
