Malikappuram

Such a good movie and Excellent casting. The whole movie is about malikappuram Kallu the little girl with an aim /determination to see lord ayyappa. The kind of acting is just amazing kid. Hatsoff to swami piyush unni done his part very well . Unnimukundan as an actor has really scaled up and has delivered spledid performance through out the movie. Must say I have witnessed Unnimukundans career best performance in this movie. The movie is actly a journey to lord ayyappa with a great balance of humour ,emotions, fight sequences ,adventure etc. Well Hatsoff to the entire crew behind this wonderful flick I really have seen lord Ayyappa through your great work.

Amazing movie. In recent times malayalam movies had anti Hindu anti India element due to communist islamic influences.. Especially through beef reference in many past movies.. This stands different as the perfect malayalam movie with Indian sanathani culture representing the real malayalees.. This is pround indian cinema..Apart from Unni mukundan stellar performance,The child actress was amazing, especially her innocence and her real life bhakthi towards ayyappa was the highlight of the film.. Especially her performance in the movie made the movie real.. Most of the people were having tears in their eyes and also happines and smile once the show was over.

I'm not gonna talk abt the techniques, story telling, + or -. Felt like sharing what I felt watching this master piece

Maligapuram ( journey to Sabarimala). Maligapuram - sabarimalavin kaapaval aanal antha maligapurathukey oru sothanai endral Puli mithu varuvan en Ayyappan 🙏🏼🙏🏼

The movie starts with a frame of ayyapan ( for our super hero ). Any ayyappan devotees will have goosebumps seeing his hero on a bigger screen.

The first scene starts with Jyoti. What a moment - true bliss to watch and I'm sure everyone feels the divine behind it.

Jyoti aaga arambitha padam harivarasanam paattil mudithanar ( starts with Jyoti and ends with harivarasanam - song used to make ayyappan sleep / bring peace to ur heart ).

Deva Nandha ( girl lead and our own maligapuram of this movie ) - as the name means God's joy ( joy comes out of knowing god ). You can literally visualize how much this girl loves ayyappan , and wanted to see him desperately. Her actual joy is not about having then mittai but sharing with Ayyappan is actual joy.

The first half completely goes with dad and daughter bonding. Dad promised to take her to see ayyapan and how he couldn't make it up.

U will end up in tears wen she was forced to remove the maalai due to her personal situation. You would feel bad why god is cruel, why can't he give dharshan to the Lil one but our super hero is known to play all thiruvilaiyadal ( appan buthi iruka thana seiyum ).

As a director, u can teach an artist to emote any sort of scene but for a Lil girl - it's not easy to show that kaathal, ekkam, emartram, mana thirupthi, puripu, kovam abt ayyappan.. her eyes speak in lot of frames abt her wish to see ayyapan atleast for one time.

Ayyappan kitta enna ketka pora. Kid answer : en Patti sonnanga ayyappan kitta thaan en appa poittar nu , so ayyapan kitta en appa ah nalla padiya parthuko nu solluva nu. That maligapuram nailed it.

Ella thadaikalaiyum thaandi 18 padi erum kaatchi. Sathyam ah orutharala nadika mudiyathu antha scene unless neenga aathmarthama ayyana nenacha mattum thaan mudiyum. Kannula sottu thanni vazhiya, padikattula irukara thaniya thottu kannula vekara maligapuram - pure goosebumps moments. Malai podra kaatchi, malaiya remove panra kaatchi, pamba bus la eri pogum kaatchi, irumudi kattum kaatchi, ayyanuku then mittai kudukum kaatchi and all the frames Deva Nandha has lived as a pure Ayyappan devotee..

Best experience: night show 1am - movie ends : title card starts and our own harivarasanam ( yesudas Iyya voice ). Best feel that u can have ever. A lots of things I haven't mentioned but this definitely worth watch for all Ayyappan devotees.

Am so happy that Malayalam movie Industry is also getting cleansed divinely. Just like happening in Sandalwood industry with the Kantara.

A particular set of pseudo Secular people always try to Tarnish the great Sanatana Dharma with really stupid movies like 'The Great India Kitchen' , this movie is a tight slap on their face.

We normally don't tend to Tarnish others beliefs like others, it only happens when we are forced to.

Unni Sir hats off to you, it needs a great amount of efforts to go against the gradient and come up with something fabulous divine like this.

Wishing for more movies like this to come.

Swamiye Saranam Ayappa.

🕉🙏🏼 I am blessed to watch this movie . I am from Uttar Pradesh but I drove to another town to experience the magic of this movie. I have experienced the divinity of Sabarimala due to this movie hence for the people living outside Kerala the movie is a very good way of learning the divinity of the entire pilgrimage process of worshipping at Sabarimala and experience the hardships devotees experience in doing this journey. Congratulations to the makers of this movie and I would request them to show the rich and ancient sanatan Dharmic culture of Kerala in future movies and to show us all the ancient temples and ashrams of Kerala . 🙏🏼 Swami Sarnam.
