1001 Nunakal

A must watch cinema for cinema lovers its going through human emotions thats what if it exposed to our loved ones started watching without any expectations but within 15 mins its got gripped and i found sense of filmmaking the team given us Watch without any expectations it will give something to learn in your life gripping till the end refreshing sometimes with small jokes engaging kudos to the team for giving a good film like that without any annoying scenes always malayalam industry never disappoint me of you are in a relationship or a husband and wife watch with patience you will definitely enjoy.

Aayirthonnu Nunakal: The movie title translates to 1001 lies. It is a movie about set of couple gathered at a friend's place due to various reasons. It happened to be the host couple is celebrating their 10th Anniversary and one of their friend comes up with an innovative game. He asks each couple to disclose one of the lie or secret they have kept from their better half. What happens when couples start opening up is rest of the story.

It surely is an interesting plot. The problem is that it takes 40 odd minutes to main plot of playing game. When the closets are opened it is quite relatable as you know these are the secrets what couples usually hide from each other. The impact of lies could have been great and every character should have opened up.

Conveniently, few characters get away without sharing their lies. If the lies were bit more creative in terms of writing and crumbling down their life, it would have added thrill to the narrative.

With many new faces and side actors taking centre stage, they have performed really well. Everyone looks like seasoned actors and credit definitely should go to the director, Thamar KV. He has churned out performances from each actor. The story being set in Saudi, the essence of it surely adds to the narrative.

It had potential to hit it out of the park but due to bit of clumps writing, the impact goes low. It turns out to be missed opportunity making it just a timepass movie.

1001 nunakal is made as a slow burn drama of relationships and bonds.

The story is dull and the acting is overly dramatic with every bit of artificiality possible. There is nothing engaging in this film, there are a bunch of irritating characters talking nonsense.

Vishnu Agasthya is the only one who put up a honest performance, the rest of the cast was just below average performance.

As i have said the story makes zero sense, why would couples married for long years suddenly decide to tell their deepest secrets just in the name of a game?! I think the writters should try this game once within themselves. Utter nonsense.

If you've watched '12th Man', then 1001 Nunakal is not far from that movie.

The scenario, unfortunately, didn't produce something original; it was the same routine about married friends embarking on a dangerous game that'll shatter their relationships.

DELICIOUS

-The lighting and location worked! It's always a refreshing scenery when movies are shot in the Middle East and Vinay's house was big, well lit, and cozily furnished😃

-All the actors rendered a natural performance making the screenplay look real. Plus, there was a good variety of characters.

Our favorite has to be Benzy; Rashmi K Nair released genuine pain and a tormented spirit, we felt it.

-The film concluded with a powerful reality: "Oftentimes, it's the listeners who decide whether something is a truth or a lie".

Just as beauty is in the eye of the beholder, truth is also in the ear of the listener.

BLAND

---1001 Nunakal was mainly an imitation of many movies of this genre, i.e. Married friends gathering in a nice location and engaging in a ridiculous and costly activity.

It was surprising that the friends who had originally sheltered at Vinay's house due to a fire in their apartments seemed to be more concerned about the game than the loss of their property 😳

The film would have had a greater impact if it had focused on a different activity to bring out the friends' inner personalities and use symbols to pass a message.

The film 1001 Nunakal, directed by Thamar, is classified as a cinematic work belonging to the family drama genre.

The narrative commences with the gathering of the malayali families at a residence, convened due to an unexpected incident that transpires - a fire breaking out in some of the families' flats. The occasion in question is a wedding anniversary celebration for a couple, who, on the following day, make the decision to commemorate the occasion in the company of their friends' family. However, the day is marred by incidents that arise between the families in attendance. The couples' decision to engage in a game of lies, each confessing the untruths they have told their respective partners during their matrimonial journey, inadvertently creates discord among the groups. This tension escalates further when an expensive wedding anniversary gift disappears, leading to suspicion and conflict among the individuals present. In point of fact, the gift was acquired through surreptitious means on account of the continuous pecuniary requests of her husband.

The film's narrative was of mediocre quality, with its direction adhering to standard conventions. The central theme of the film remained unfulfilled, and despite the absence of prominent actors, the performances were commendable. The film can be regarded as one to be watched on a single occasion.
