Pookkaalam

Pookkaalam is a heartwarming film directed by Ganesh Raj. It revolves around Ittoop, a nonagenarian man portrayed by Vijayaraghavan, who discovers that his entire life has been built on lies. This revelation deeply affects his relationship with his wife, Kochuthresia, played by KPAC Leela. The movie takes place during a betrothal function, creating a lively atmosphere with amusing interactions and joyful chaos.

The cast includes notable actors such as Basil Joseph, Vineeth Sreenivasan, Arun Kurian, and Annu Antony, who add depth to the story. Pookkaalam explores themes of family, secrets, and the impact of past events on relationships. It beautifully balances serious and comedic elements, making it a heartfelt and enjoyable family entertainer.

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.

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.

There's emotional reciprocity involved with giving compliments. Seeing someone else happy, especially when you were the one who made them happy, in turn makes you happy. It's one of the simplest ways to boost someone else's mood as well as your own. Compliments really are one of the easiest two-way streets available to spread happiness around you and increase your own. The more you compliment, the better you feel. We know it can feel awkward sometimes to dish out a compliment-and to receive one-but the more practice you get, the more natural it will feel Here are a hundred ready-made compliments to try out for yourself. Such compliments can work.
