Godha

As when we watch trailer of the movie or the starting we may feel its a recreation of Dangal but then it changes the feel of the movie. I never expected a such wonderful and colorful movie from the Director Basil Joseph.

About the cast, everyone has played a wonderful roles in the movie with perfect timing in comedy & in emotionally scenes. A new actresses is also introduced in this film who played a energetic role in this film. In the case of Tovino and Renji had one of the main roles had played it so well that when Renji Paniker speaks we may get goosebumps.

About the music, Shaan Rahman has proved his excellency in this film. Great Songs and background score as well. As i didn't like some songs in this movie but i'm sure most the people will like.

Overall its good movie which can be viewed by families and contains no adult contents and i hope the people will surely enjoy it...

Sorry if any mistakes and this review will not applicable to every viewers.

Godha (2017): Sports drama is the only genre which rarely disappoints even if they have clichéd format.They all have the same story of an underdog achieving his success with the help of a coach who lost all the hope.But that is not the case with Godha here,I didn't have even a slightest idea about this film (Not even its trailers,posters) and when I watched it,I loved it.

Plot: Anjaneya Das (Tovino Thomas) hails from a family of wrestlers but loves cricket more. His dad (Renji Panicker) packs him off to Punjab University for his M-Tech, where he meets Aditi Singh (Wamiqa Gabbi), a passionate wrestler. A series of events land them both back in God's Own Country and a new episode of kusthi begins.

My Review: The major pro of Godha is that it never tries to be intense or inspirational as other sports dramas.Godha is a pleasant entertainer with sports backdrop.If it had tried to be other than that,it really would look like a rip-off of Dangal,Sultan and other wrestling movies.

The whole film is a mixture of funny moments stitched together in a competent manner. Even then there are some romantic sequences here and there, which are quite refreshing. Basil manages to create very humorous moments of laughter at those areas. Even when the plot shifts to Punjab or even when it becomes a little more serious about its ultimate goal, director never loses the grip over humor. The movie touches the deep emotional moments of Captain, Adithi and Das very subtly through frames with very minimal dialogues. The dramatization has reduced the novelty of the theme slightly, but still the engrossing factor stays on the screen.

Performances are another strength of the film.Wamiqa Gabbi is show stealer with charming and power packed performance.She is pretty and absolutely convincing as a wrestler. From the beginning, it's her desire to make it big, leopardess-like fights, battle with prejudices and most of all, charm and cuteness that fill the screen with thrill and muscle. It's her single-mindedness that stays with you after the film.

After her it is Renji Panicker,who played hero's father scored with his amazing performance.Tovino Thomas looks handsome and fit. He is really likable in the romantic scenes. the supporting cast including Aju Varghese, Parvathy, Shine Tom Chacko and Sreejith Ravi have done their roles really well.

Godha has one of the best albums of the year.Shaan's songs were perfectly in sync with the mood of the film and he once again creates a musical feel though those BGMs.Especially WOW and Aaro Ninjil are best ones.Vishnu Sharma elevates the film with quality frames and he captures both Punjab and Kerala beauty in perfect way.

So,Godha is one of the best entertainer of the year with its feel good moments,charming performances and soulful music.

My Rating 7.5/10

With Godha Basil Joseph has surely established himself as one of the dependable directors of Mollywood. The movie which revolves around wrestling is filled with comic moments and serious moments which have not failed to deliver. The direction is top notch and the music from Shan Rahman also deserves mention. The movie is well nit together with excellent editing and absence of any unnecessary scenes have surely contributed to the absence of any lag. The movie is more of a heroine movie with Wamiqqa Gabbi playing a more prominent role than Tovino Thomas. But the real star of the movie isRanjia Panikar who steels the show with his fine acting proving there is more to him as an actor than a script writer. The first fast half is fast flowing filled with humorous moments while the second half has more of a serious tone. Godha surely is a full time entertainer and arguably the beat sports movie in Malayalam film industry till date. Be sure mot to miss the movie as it will get your spirits high

After Basil Joseph's 1st directorial venture , godha was for sure a breath of fresh air . It's a sports film with a dash of romance and comedy . Also I have noticed that there are some wrestling scenes that have a resemblance from Dangal . Awesome acting by the whole cast . It's a watchable family movie .

Godha Had A Big Release This Weekend Alongside Achayans And Adventures Of Omanakuttan For A Really Tight Competition.

Godha Has Adapted Many OF The Dangal Elements Into The Film, Encompassing The Viewers With Astounding Camera Work And Mind Blowing Cinematography Alongside The Decent Yet Satisfying Storyline. The Spotlight However Goes To REnji PAnicker , Who Has Shined Alongside A Star Cast Of Tovino Thomas, Aju Varghese And The Debutant Actress Wamiqa Gabbi. The Mohanlal References By Tovino Earned The Cheers And Praises From The Crowd As The Theatre Burst Into Claps And Whistles.

Many Viewers Will Find The Storyline And The Screenplay Quite Boring , Especially The 2nd Half, Wheereas The Director Has Succeeded In Bringing Comedic Elements Into Such A Motivating And Inspirational Film.

Overall, Godha Is A Sure Shot Success, Considering The Other Two Film Releasing Alongside Is Getting Negative - Avg. Reports.

My Rating - 7.9/10
