Maheshinte Prathikaaram

Fahadh lived as the character 🔥🔥. Aparna alsoo....

Maheshinte Prathikaaram.. A different sort of a film when you compare it to the movies Fahad Faasil has done. The studio photographer Mahesh is a simple person without any high ambitions in life. His dad.. The most silent person you would see in that film.. But conveying his message through his silence beautifully. Mahesh likes a girl called Sowmya who is his childhood friend and the same applies to her. Unexpected turn of events leads to Mahesh engaging in a fight with a thug called Jimson who ends up beating Mahesh in front of the crowd. Mahesh gets all embarrassed in front of everyone. The following events that occur in Mahesh's life have been put together really well and is presented to you by Dileesh Pothan in a very good manner. Soubin's timely appearance along with the evergreen music of Bijibal make the film an absolute treat to watch. Special credits to Fahad Faasil for bringing out Mahesh so well. Overall rating:9/10

Maheshinte Prathikaaram is the film I didn't want to be finished. I literally clapped after finishing the movie. This is all because of the brilliance of the writer Syam Pushkaran & Director Dileesh Pothan. Syam Pushkaran is also The Writer of Kumbalangi Nights - the film that made me a fan of Malayalam Cinema.

The film can't be put in one genre. It is funny, romantic & also thrilling. The film won Best Screenplay & Best Film in Malayalam in 64th National Film Award. A Beautiful Movie Experience.

You Can watch The Film on ManoramaMAX.

Ever read a Maeve Binchy novel? Her books are never about just the central character but about the towns in Ireland, their people, culture and how all the characters are interwoven seamlessly to one another. MP is more than Mahesh's sweet revenge. It's about Idukki and its people. This is probably not a movie that I'd recommend to a non Malayali as the essence of the movie would be lost to them. This is one of my all time favourite movies of all time. Yes, it's slow paced and the plot is thin but this is a movie that one must savour like an exquisite wine. What a beautiful movie!! I became a fan of Fahadh Faasil after this one.

From 2014's end to 2016's beginning can be considered as a dark period for Fahad Fassil. Money Ratnam, Mariyam Mukku, Haram, Ayal Njanalla, Monsoon Mangoes were back to back flops. So when my friend invited me to this movie, I didn't really wanted to go. But I went anyway. And I stood up and clapped as the credits rolled. It was the first day. The theater was half empty. Maheshinte Prathikaram ended up being one of the greatest hits ever in Malayalam Cinema.
