Kuttanpillayude Sivarathri

The first is typical family entertainment. Second half is more of fantasy and totally a different movie experience

Now when the initial posters and trailers came out for this movie I was expecting another mindless comedy movie. But finally after reading initial reviews I was really excited to watch this.

A differently themed movie in an otherwise mass/popular movie market. It talks about the life of Kuttanpilla - a typical policeman who is leading a simple life with his wife. It is sivarathri (Hindu festival) time and his children and other relatives are coming down to celebrate. A series of events which follows is the story.

While this is the main story there is a nice side story as well. The narration of the story is interesting. The intertwined stories have come out well and keeps the attention of the audience.

Its got classical elements of a typical kerala family - usual drama + some mild comedy. Kudos to Suraj for playing the title role. His evolution as an actor is simply commendable. The supporting actors are good too - Srinda, Biju Sopanam, Suraj's wife.

Do watch this one for a an offbeat movie experience.

It was much better than expected , surprised , smooth flow from start to end , had a good time while watching with family

Kuttanpillayude Sivarathri is a great mixture of comedy and family emotions. Kuttanpilla played by Suraj Venjaramoodu steals the show with his excellent performance. The story proceeds in a fun but slow paced fashion showcasing different incidents occurring with time. The movie ends with an important message to the world and the story is also based on some of the true events that happened in Kerala. Supporting cast were on point with their performance. Music was soothing to the ears especially 'Chakka Paatu'. I personally loved the movie. 10/10 for Kuttanpillayude Sivarathri, Suraj Venjaramoodu, and Jean Markose.

Suraaj is awesome, even in this serious role he sounds so funny.
