Ustad Hotel

Usthad hotel directed by Anwar rasheed and scripted by Anjali menon starring veteran Thilkan,Dulquer,Siddique & Nithya menen. Usthad hotel shows the strong bond developed between grandpa & his grandson. 1st half is filled with comedy & joy,while 2nd half is more of a poverty,under privilege,love,piece & joy everything compelled to make a Usthad hotel indeed a heart warming,endearing and lovable. Movie doesn't offer any thrill nor dramatic twist but at the end give you a charming smile on your face. Plot is littlebit clichéd with some mouth watering flavour added to make viewer s engage throughout. Denouement of the film is really heartwarming and endearing. All actors performance shows their brilliance especially DQ & veteran Thilkan. Music by Gopi sundar was good & apt for this. Must watch for good lovers of Indian cinema. R.I.P Thilkan!

This movie has absolutely everything you could want..

engaging story, outstanding performances, and entertaining in every aspect. It has humor, sadness and drama, at the appropriate times, and performances without fault

I like fairy tales, and this movie certainly is one. very first Rate Entertainment

I had much expectations about this film where the director made 3 blockbusters and writer anjali menon is very very promising with her debut "Manjadikkuru" .. and the movie made my mind happy .it was a life time experience watching it on theater. This movie shows human relations very well.

Dulquar Salmaan shows he is a star with his cool dude attitude .. excellent way of narrating and well crafted scripting .. the best parts are the background score by Gopi sundar and cinematography by lokanathan.

I suggest everyone to watch this one .. Kudos to Anwar Rasheed the director and anjali menon .. a great step in malayalam cinema to the world .. brilliantly done ..

I would give 10 on 10 fro Usthad Hotel !

Dulquer Salman has given a superb performance. An aspiring chef comes to his grandfather place and help him run his hotel. They want to give customers tasty and hygienic food at a reasonable price. The chef learns the main purpose of cooking thereafter. Heart touching ending given in the film.

Wat a heck of a movie !!!!! for a teenager like me going and seeing the movie two times in a row and STILL feeling unsatisfied is something really AWESOME !!!! Reallyy loved the movie, from the touchy background scores to the straightforward dialogs !!!!!! Dulquar has opened a new chapter for himself with this movie and i am bloody sure he is gonna embark this movie as the MILESTONE in his career !!!! At the end of the day, there is,i feel, nothing in this film that you would feel"COULD HAVE IMPROVED" kinds... "A MUST WATCH MOVIE" for all of those people who have been looking out for a rejuvenating experience !!!! ENJOYY !!!!

Ustad Hotel is a flavour rich drama which has got all the ingredients to satisfy everyone alike, that without compromising on the artistic elements! Anwar Rasheed Anjali Menon duo doesn't disappoint, true to be, they don't strike Gold either!

The story, roughly, is about a young guy who tries to get away with his career only to find himself in the thick of things which goes otherwise. With the backdrop of food and malabar,it does provide an interesting watch, the more appeasing if you are from malabar region. The screenplay by Anjali menon is too good that we don't get stuck anywhere, a bit let loose towards the end, making it melodramatic - I got a lump in my throat after a very long time. The sulaimani & mohabbath scene with Dulqar and Thilakan was a mesmerizing one. The background score & songs were so soothing to the senses - hindustani, folk rock and even a sufi track - which went well with the storyline did wonders for the movie. We have a young hero in Dulqar Salman who is handsome and stylish - improved a lot from Second Show - and an ever amazing Thilakan who excels as Ustad, Nithya Menen who plays the love interest of Dulqar does well too.

With food being an important element in the plot, chances are high the movie being compared to "Salt ' n' Pepper". Ustad Hotel is a feel good drama which would skip being at par with S 'n' P which was a romantic comedy. It did disappoint me that the romance was so underplayed in Ustad Hotel, the only romantic scene was sweet leaving us craving for more! All said, Anwar Rasheed & crew does it in style, a good feast to relish.
