Avis à la une
The first time I watched the movie, after about 20 minutes I couldn't continue watching it. It felt like a rush. So many characters being introduced, so many lame jokes. The movie is shot and edited in a unique way. I'm not sure whether I like it or not. There are so many beautiful shots in this movie - like where they move the bed of the lead character, but at the same time some shots look like its from an advert.
I decided to give it a second chance because of amazing reviews from other people. The second part is where everything happens and story gets interesting. The story is very relevant in this day and age. There are still some unnecessary scenes in second half too, but much better. The make-up artist deserves a National Award or something. Even in close up scenes the makeup looked so perfect. Vijayarakhavan's and Leela's performances were commendable.

Fantastic is an understatement to describe this movie and there's sooo much to say😃
-Vijayaraghavan sublimed the role by giving it a new definition. If it were an actual older actor, we wouldn't have to expect anything, but because it was Vijayaraghavan, it was exciting to see what he would bring to the table.
His walk, his talk, and mannerisms solidified his performance all the way. He really lived like an older person
-The plot was original as it centered on older people and addressed an extremely sensitive issue. So while watching, we were putting ourselves in Ichoy's and Ichamma's shoes, trying to figure out what we would do.
The movie also highlighted something important, it's not because older people have come to an advanced age that they no longer have rights, their needs should never be suppressed even if they only have few days to live.
-the screenplay was excessively rich in characters, it even put a spotlight on a dog & a cow friendship😆 Basil Joseph & Vineeth Sreenivasan intensified the humor with their awkward love-hate relationship. Ichoy's family was realistically structured with a daughter suffering from Alzeimer and a lost son
-What can we say about the direction and the cinematography? Ganesh didn't waste time, about 15min into the film, the climax was already ignited, and the fact that new faces were gradually added along the scenario, it made the story even more interesting
Anend C Chandran's attention to the littlest details and even the sound. Wow! We loved him in Bheesma Parvam and we love him in Pookkaalam.

Pookalam is a beautifully crafted movie. It takes the audience with its flow through its beautiful script , outstanding performance of the cast and a good morale story line which is carefully treaded. The movie takes you through a ride of emotions and absorbs you into their family. Kudos to all the actors their performance was top notch. The performance given by vijayaraghavn and KPAC Leela was outstanding and i am sure they will get the Highest honours. Enchanting and heartwarming feel-good movie that beautifully captures the essence of bonds, emotions, and happiness. Overall, "Pookkaalam" is an absolute gem of a movie that will warm your heart, make you laugh, and leave you with a renewed sense of optimism. It is a must-watch for anyone in need of an uplifting and emotionally rewarding cinematic experience.
I am sharing my experience.
I saw a youtube short video, which Actor vijayaraghavan dubbing clip...It was really touching
Coming to film; Casting was exceptional. Especially Vijayaraghavan,KAPSC Leela. Both deserve award for their acting... Simple story,but have a strong ground for family feelings.. Hatsoff to director. Had great stuff. He really deserves a big salute, in certain emotional scenes, he really controlled the actors not to go beyond the expression.
Both Vijayaraghavan & Leela, their body language (as old age people) was awsome in all scenes.
I think there was one song in this film.....but we didn't find that song anywhere
Actually its a very good film.....highly recommended for all film lovers.

Feel good factor movie. Award winning performances by Vijayaraghavan, KPAC Leela. Super performance by Basil and Vineeth.
Ganesh Raj made life a celebration movie, though serious life realities are handled wonderfully. Laughed a lot with so many humerous situations and sat glued until the end with turn of events which are knitted well.
Humer, excitement, suspense, realities and handling such a story of 90+ is not common in infian cinemas. But Ganesh gave full justice to the story line, ditection and beautiful photography. One of the rare such movies ever watched.
Hats off to the Team Pookkalam!
