I would call it an average movie for a director like renjith. The story is good, the actors chosen to perform each of the characters are apt. The story revolves around the city calicut and the director has managed to apply the calicut flavour of malayalam wherever possible in addition to the specific locations of the city that support the story as well. Prithviraj proves that he still has room for growth in acting. Thilikan performs his regular style that does impact the story in a positive way. No unnecessary songs that spoil the flow of the movie. These add to the positives. Now, looking at the negatives will be the lack of pace in the screenplay. There are many places in the story where you have to wait to get the actual idea the character is trying to project, especially in the climax where the character jayaprakash changes his decision to face a critical situation in his life. There is completeness in the story especially in the end where 2 characters take over the work of JP(prithviraj) and CH(Tom), showing that the world just goes on with its affairs , only the people change. But still some scenes where unnecessary, avoiding them could have improved the impact on the viewer. Its neither bad nor good for an expectation that we will have from a renjith movie. So its an average movie. You can watch it once.

A consistent screenplay that stays very precise to the tale of 3 people. Grace(Jayapradha) is the pivotal character. Unknowly the story places her in the centre. Mathews(Mohanlal), Achu(Anupam Kher) and Grace(Jayapradha), all these phenomenal actors have filled a very subtle yet strong emotion into each of their characters. Love is a canvas and its your choice which have to be the colours you will use to fill. Sometimes it can create a beautiful painting. Blessy is a good artist. He has the talent to give each actor their freedom to bring out the required emotion in the movie. Well played and presented. Worth spending time with your loved one and watch this cinema.
