Kho Kho

Each and every scene is cringe I don't know how this script made into a movie.

The amount of inspirational dialogues in the movie are exhausting. Corny clichéd storytelling. Rajisha is the only saving grace in the movie and the girls who are all 1st time actors I believe are also good. But nothing they did could save this badly scripted and directed movie. The quantity of music is also too much. Overall, it was a disappointing movie even though it had an inspirational theme.

Nice story but implementation was too bad. Casting, too bad music BG pathetic.

This Is A Cliche Story Film , Don't Expect Too Much , Dialogs Are Not Realistic , Predictable Story if You Watched Sports Movie , Average Movie For Me

If You Want To Watch a Simple Sports Drama Movie With Your Family You Can One Time Watchable.

Kho Kho, the pathbreaking sports drama starring Kerala State Award winner for Best Actress, Rajisha Vijayan had a direct-to-TV release on Asianet today with OTT release on Amazon Prime and Saina Play yet to be announced (Released on 27th outside India on Simply South OTT).

Malayalam's first sports drama featuring an all-female sports team, Kho Kho follows the story of an enterprising young physical education teacher.

She tries to build a Kho Kho team in an ill-equipped government girls school, amidst an array of cultural, financial and disciplinary challenges.

While the core story is good and the handful of lead characters, instantly likeable, Kho Kho falter in trying to hit almost every sports movie cliche. Contrived and corny dialogues in many crux scenes reduce the impact they should have made on the viewer.

National Award-winning director Rahul Riji Nair has done really well in capturing the Kho Kho game sequences with authenticity and realism and Mamitha Baiju and Renjit Shekar are good in their supporting roles.

Rajisha Vijayan is wonderful in a more restrained, nuanced avatar than we are normally used to. Her character's tumultuous back-story adds many layers to the performance.

Ultimately, despite its flaws, the viewer can't help but root for this inspiring team of determined girls from Government Girls School Perunthuruthu. And ultimately, that is what makes a sports film watchable.

A good one-time watch. Recommended.
