In other words ,this one taste like a Fine Wine ; like Wine it will take time to kick the effect ,then minute by minute effect will keep multiplying it!
Brilliant screenplay by Athul Ramachandran & Libin and well cooked by M C Jithin !
Nazriya Nazim done a Good job ; not her typical roles but very nicely done and different yet signature style Shining act by Basil Joseph !
Fantastic supporting roles by others ; especially Akhila Bhargavanan is Promising One for Future !
Intriguing BGM by Christo Xavierr and All other technical side match the Brilliance of the Screenplay !
Go for it and Don't be the Spoilers.

The screenwriting's ability to craft and sustain suspense, particularly during pivotal moments in the script, is remarkable and shall serve as a valuable lesson for aspiring writers.
Aside from the initial thirty minutes, the story captivates with consistent developments in the plot.
Whether it's the characters getting involved in a game of cat and mouse or some significant revelations that propel the story forward, the movie tend to excel at keeping our attention in check the whole time.
Having said that, I would have preferred a darker tone. The subject matter tackled is quite sensitive and calls for a more serious approach.
While I liked the overall story, the inclusion of humorous elements, even if they lean towards the dark side, felt misplaced given the weight of the themes being addressed over here.

- 'Sookshma Darshini' directed by MC Jithin starring Basil Joseph and Nazriya Fahadh is a well executed thriller that keeps you hooked until the climax. It has a very interesting plot and the best part of the film is how it is made , the technical aspects of the film were top notch. Loved the direction by MC Jithin , lot's of attention to detail, he utilises every character and every plot points and gives them a conclusion at the end. The background score by Christo Xavier is brillaint , the score added a mystery and curios vibe to the film and further enchanced it's thrills. The editing by Chaman Chakko is also a standout with lot's of unique transitions and seamless editing. Finally the performers on the screen ; Basil Joseph and Nazriya has done an excellent job with their characters. Hat's off to Basil Joseph for playing a very different character and Nazriya for selecting good scripts. The performances by Akhila Bargavan, Pooja Mohanraj, Deepak Parambol and Merin Phillip was also great. Overall the film is suspenseful and entertaining at the same time and it is a perfect blend of mystery and comedy. Good watch.
A Fantasticalay written screenplay of a much regressive story... The credit for such a movie goes to keep it more guessing till the end which the director has done phenomenonaly.. What more is this thriller does not fall into any particular category or comedy or serious or no police investigation... But it is a crime thriller which is the beauty of such a movie.. But as a crime thriller story enthusiast i was able to guess it in last 20 mins... Till then it was truly mysterious and enjoyable.. Nazriya is an acting and expression queen of malayalam cinema absolutely fitting her stature and right choice of movie for her and the director... Basil Joseph is growing as most bankable actor and such a portrayal of his character with ease.. The supporting characters of Nazriyas friends has done a fantastic work.. Overall an enjoyable thriller though in current progressive world this looks a more regressive story deep rooted in old beliefs and faith which can be cons for this movie..
Sookshmadarshini is an intriguing thriller which balances the thrills with the fun elements really well. It has everything which is missing in today's most films, i.e. The writing and the conviction in making an atmospheric thriller
Basil Joseph looks like an average Indian guy who plays a mysterious man with suspicious personality remarkably well. The casting is brilliant of the film. Nazriya plays the nosy woman who has curiosity about other people's affair is so well cast. She brings the needed characteristics to her character.
The writers of the film Athul Ramachandran and Libin TB, two writers, have deftly dissected a scenario and reconstructed it into a film narrative. The direction by MC is so cleverly done that you keep guessing till the very end and the climax becomes very unpredictable and gives a satisfactory climax.
Sookshmadarshini is an edge of the seat thriller which makes you hooked till the very end and keeps you entertained throughout its run time. Malayalam Films have always been technically brilliant and this one is no different. Its a must watch and should not be missed at all.
