Beyond the Sands of Time

~ Varshangalk Shesham was definitely not for me. I am very disappointed after watching this film. I didn't like anything in this film apart from the Cinematography by Oddukathil Vishwajith , some of the frames were really nice. The music was also good. Other than that the performances were okayish , Dhyan was fine. The characters in this film did not connect to me at all. I felt like they are stupid. Some of the characters and actors were there just for nothing. Lot of the times I felt Vineeth Sreenivasan was forcefully trying to make the film feel - good. Nivin Pauly character was an hit and miss for me. He performed better in this than his previous few films , but I still didn't get to see that old Nivin back. The length of the film is another drawback as it is very long and is tiring. Personally I didn't like it at all.

Dhyan Sreenivasan and Pranav Mohanlal have done a great job on their part, as well as the other actors. Special mention to Nivin Pauly, he has stolen the show with his brilliant performance. He has done a very good job, laughed my heart out throught his dialogues.

Music was average.

First half was very lagging, got bored. Second half was good, mainly because of Nivin it turned out really well!!! First half had something missing technically, not able to pinpoint at it exactly.

Definitely not among the good movies that Vineeth Sreenivasan has given us before, expecting good movies from him in future.

It was like watching a drama of 80's. I felt it would be better if the story was little more present than 80s time frame. Really boring 1st half and an ok second half as a complete cinema.

The movie follows Vineeth's typical storyline centered around friendship sentiments.

The first half is filled with drama and nostalgic scenes, although it can feel a bit cringy with its emphasis on friendship and its misunderstandings.

However, Nivin Poly steals the show in the second half with his slapstick comedy with a bit of overacting. But his charismatic persona brought much-needed energy for the film.

Dhyan delivers a strong performance, taking on an unusual character role 👏🏻 while Pranav Mohanlal characterized by repetitive mannerisms. This repetition fails to engage the audience and lacks freshness in his acting.

The fun elements and surprise Tamil characters add to the enjoyment & become boredom busters for the movie.

The constant reference to a particular award winning composition in the movie was very irritating.

I couldn't enjoy the composition at all.

Overall, it's a decent movie, but not the best as some claim.

Worth a watch for its artistic value, but don't expect a groundbreaking experience.

First off, this movie is for the family. There's tons to laugh in the second half. Nivin Pauly just steals the whole thing with his acting and self troll. Real credit goes to Vineeth Sreenivasan. He's a genius craftsman. He knows exactly how to make the film click with the general audience. Coming to the film. There's nothing new about the storyline. We can very well predict the course. Dhyan has done well. Pranav struggles. Story begins cheerfully and lags as it inches towards the halftime mark. From then on, it's a rollercoaster of laughs. It's more funny when 100s of people laugh with you. So may not be that good when it comes to OTT. But definitely a one time enjoyable film, that has its ups and downs.
