Ishq

Movies against the moral policing have been seen in the malayalam industry in the recent times and i think this is the best of that kind. The first half is really haunting and brings you to the edge of your seats, second half does the same but gives you a different experience. If you're a movie lover and love raw, realistic movies then go for it. Do watch it in theatres

Ishq (Love) is as much about moral policing as it is about the menacing male ego in a romantic relationship as we see in this psychological thriller where characters played by Shane Nigam and Ann Sheetal are caught in a mess while trying to execute young love in a modern Kerala setting. TN.

Malayalam industry has already seen a handful of movies dealing similar topic... 'Ishq' is still fresh and thought provoking...Ishq excelled in casting, direction, and script. Must watch movie in recent times.

"Ishq" Malayalam movie Cross section of the today's world shown in 2hours and 15 minutes. The movie "Ishq" is all about the love affair of an young couple, moving through contemporary affairs of present Kerala, like public ogling and sexy remarks on couples, moral policing, frustrations of young men and insecurities of dames. Shane Nigam as the reckless youth lover, played his part with ease.... his 'don't care' attitudes changing to revenge mode is excellent. Shine Chacko fits into the anti-hero character well, his facial expressions are superb. Ann Shethal as the timid dame is good and strong ... especially at the climax, when she takes the lead to express her bold decision. 7.5 on 10 for this thriller movie, which comes with a tag line... 'it's not a love story' It's a blow to the society for keeping women as sub-standard citizens, it's a blow for the hyper-inflated male egos. "Ishq" ... Love is a triangle of Acceptance, Understanding and Appreciation ... remove anyone, the love triangle falls. Must watch 'Ishq' ... If you are seriously in love or planning to love... because Love is not 'child's play'

Movie started off slow with typical Shayn Nigam all smile and in love. Then the pace picked up once Shine Tom came on screen. After the interwell it really made us on the edge of our seats. The best thing about the movie was the climax. I don't want to spoil it for you but you are going to clap if you are not a misogynist. Well done team
