Avis à la une
This is an amazing Musical Horror film, that at first watch we may not feel attracted to, but will keep us dragging towards the film again and again, and for sure,it will make to our recommended list. And the music, it's just OMG. An amazing thing. Some reactions from Mohanlal may seem unwanted or a bit odd, and few characters are not utilized properly, like Jagathy sir and Jagadeesh and the actress which plays Sneha in it. Any way, it's super amazing :-)
'Devadoothan'..meaning a 'messenger of god' is a perfect example of intellectuality and experimentation in Malayalam Cinema..where the silence of the movie says too much at times..it's always the unknown factor or the quest for the unknown which is haunting & likewise, Devadoothan though depicting somewhat a clear story line has the viewer feeling that "there's something at the end of the tunnel". Mohanlal beautifully plays a music maestro whose urge for truth becomes the core of the movie..almost all characters are beautifully arranged & do deliver beclouded statements which add to the suspense & justify their roles..giving us chills and enriching imaginations, the background music fulfills its responsibility as being the movie's backbone...Devadoothan may not be a movie for masses, but stands out as an effort which can never be forgotten..
Phenomenal in all aspects of film making like acting, cinematography, art direction, songs, Background scores, editing all under the direction of the Master Sibi Malayil.
There is never gonna be a movie like "Devadoothan" in Malayalam Cinema.
A one-time phenomenon. 💚

Best horror movie of mollywood.
A must watch. Excellent performace, exceptional script, awsome direction.
A huge number of viewers of the time the movie released and those of the present days tend to believe that Maheswar indeed came and took Aleena with him to a different world where they flew like two adorable pigeons. This is because our viewers have an overload of romantic expectations. On the contrary, I would like to see it as a revenge story made colorful with the sound and fury of Vishal Krishnamurthy (Mohan Lal) who plots a devious plan to get rid of Madam Angelina Ignatius, the lady who destroyed the course of his life on a fine day by ousting him from the college on the alleged playing of the 'Seven Bells'. We know that it is precisely because of that Murthy had to live a difficult life and that his dreams got dashed onto the rock on which you could hear only a clatter of stones than the harmony of music.
All those years after college he must have been forced to live a sullen life with resent. He must have been looking for ways to take revenge and set his life straight. In comes Principal father with an offer for a musical. Grabbing the opportunity, with the help of his friend Ithakk (Jagadeesh), Murthy, like the Namboothirippad of Manichithrathazhu creates a Tantric ceremony like atmosphere for his enemy Madam Angelina Igantius.
Having gotten rid of Madam Angelina, Murthy had his revenge and regained his dreams of becoming a well known musician. Although the movie, fell short of becoming yet another classic of psychological thriller genre, thus opens opportunities for multiple interpretations. If you are a romantic you can believe the first story, if you are a rational thinker or a pragmatist, you can believe the latter.
