Padmini

The film is an absolutely entertaining. If you love comedy, this movie is for you. Comedy is excellent, direction is superb. Loved the movie.

A complete light hearted family entertainer.

The movie also highlights the pressure faced by women in marriage which is also an interesting topic.

Among the three leading ladies, Aparna is best for her performance than the other two and gets as much visibility as Kunchacko Boban.

Comedy is the major highlight of Padmini. Watch it for endless comedy scenes.

There are some refreshing scenes like the advertisement of the Rareeram mattress firm owned by Jayan that erupts huge laughter.

Can watch it again just for the laughter.

I watched this movie in Cinipolis, Kochi.

It was very funny movie filled with nice comedy scenes Weak script but satisfied with well directed (good direction). Performance of all actors & actresses were up to their mark. Love you muthe song was super.

Decent background score by Jakes. Simple story film.

Weak script. Some comedy doenot work out.

The film is all about love , marriage, cheating in love ..

The film is a small & budjeted. The actors of the filim are very popular & experienced in the industry. So people definitely expect more from this filim. Better they do this filim with new faces.

It surely satifies family audiance...

Padmini (Netflix orig. Malayalam w/Eng. Subs.) is a cleverly made comedy with plenty of hilarious moments and (un)intentional digs at various social issues :-)

Rameshan (Kunchacko Boban) is a well liked teacher at the local school. He marries the crafty Smriti (Vincy Aloshius) who on their wedding night, promptly elopes with her lover in his Padmini car. Ramesh now becomes a laughing stock with his friends and colleagues who tease him as "Padmini" !!! Eventually Ramesh goes to a marriage broker for a second chance. He is sent to meet a prospective bride, Advocate Sreedevi (Aparna Balamurali)but the two do not gel. Sreedevi reluctantly gets engaged to a successful local businessman Jayan. A new and pretty teacher Padmini joins the school. Ramesh and Padmini bond well and decide to wed. However when the families meet, they discover that Ramesh has forgotten to divorce his first wife. Padmini's uncle is firm that unless Ramesh is legally divorced, the alliance can not proceed.

Laugh and smile your way through the subtle and in your face humour of this film to find out how the narration plays out!

Padmini (the film) is yet another well crafted Malayalam comedy. The acting is great, the sets, cinematography etc. All very good. I thoroughly enjoyed this film.

Highly recommended.

Waste of time. Kunjachacko has gone seriously wrong with this one.

Movie could have been so much better. Even the humour is lopsided, warped and trite. Clichéd situations, mysoginistic (what's new), talentless lead actress who is half the age of the middle aged lead actor (but perfect hair, sarees and bleached face of course, is in place - Acting is optional).

Story goes for a toss after 10 mins or so. Rudderless direction with silly dialogues.

I would not even this is a one time watch.

Given this is a Malayalam movie, I can only imagine that such ridicous movies are few and far between, as the industry has some excellent talents, way better than any other regional cinemas in India. Otherwise God help the Malayalam movie industry.

It's Brilliant writing and acting . Very subtle acting . Hats off to Malayalam for writing such scripts.

It's a must watch. Shows that you don't need big budget to make good movies . Not sure how come it's not rated high. I will recommend this live to everyone whom I know . There a reason why every character is there in the movie . Nothing is forced in the script for the sake of filling in time. No unwanted songs or fights in the movie . One of the best comedies that I have watched in recent times without any adult comedy. Need such simple movies where you can sit and watch with everyone in the family.
