Pookkaalam

This movie was a comfort movie, the acting was great on most of the part. The 2 main characters the grandma and the grandpa did really good. The story and the aesthetic was beautiful, and made viewers feel at home. I could only give this film a 7 because it was average with the way the dialogues were written. Especially for the granddaughter who made every scene cringe with the way she spoke and acted. Maybe she would have done better if she had better lines, but other than that actors like Arun Kurian did a great job. I only wished there would be more back story to what happened and how some of the characters ended up the way they did. Overall this movie was calm but just long on other parts while still being funny occasionally. I could say you could watch it once and not get bored of it.

I am sharing my experience.

I saw a youtube short video, which Actor vijayaraghavan dubbing clip...It was really touching

Coming to film; Casting was exceptional. Especially Vijayaraghavan,KAPSC Leela. Both deserve award for their acting... Simple story,but have a strong ground for family feelings.. Hatsoff to director. Had great stuff. He really deserves a big salute, in certain emotional scenes, he really controlled the actors not to go beyond the expression.

Both Vijayaraghavan & Leela, their body language (as old age people) was awsome in all scenes.

I think there was one song in this film.....but we didn't find that song anywhere

Actually its a very good film.....highly recommended for all film lovers.

Pookkaalam is a heartwarming film directed by Ganesh Raj. It revolves around Ittoop, a nonagenarian man portrayed by Vijayaraghavan, who discovers that his entire life has been built on lies. This revelation deeply affects his relationship with his wife, Kochuthresia, played by KPAC Leela. The movie takes place during a betrothal function, creating a lively atmosphere with amusing interactions and joyful chaos.

The cast includes notable actors such as Basil Joseph, Vineeth Sreenivasan, Arun Kurian, and Annu Antony, who add depth to the story. Pookkaalam explores themes of family, secrets, and the impact of past events on relationships. It beautifully balances serious and comedic elements, making it a heartfelt and enjoyable family entertainer.

Feel good factor movie. Award winning performances by Vijayaraghavan, KPAC Leela. Super performance by Basil and Vineeth.

Ganesh Raj made life a celebration movie, though serious life realities are handled wonderfully. Laughed a lot with so many humerous situations and sat glued until the end with turn of events which are knitted well.

Humer, excitement, suspense, realities and handling such a story of 90+ is not common in infian cinemas. But Ganesh gave full justice to the story line, ditection and beautiful photography. One of the rare such movies ever watched.

Hats off to the Team Pookkalam!
