Really enjoyed a malayalam movie after a long time. Director has created a different experience with this movie. The comedy is of a different kind and it grows on you. I am sure most people would want to watch it again and again.
I am usually a fan of all Shyamaprasad movies. Ritu, is his 1st movie which is not an adaptation of any other work and the script is also not written by him.
Ritu(Seasons), asks a very pertinent question - Seasons change, do we?
The 3 characters in this film have been very good friends since childhood and dreamed of continuing their life journey together. When Sarat returns from US after 3 years, he is yearning to fulfill those dreams with his friends. But, on arrival he finds that his friends - Varsha and Sunny, have moved on and have changed a lot. He passes through a phase of uncertainty, trying to identify his true calling and adjusting to the changes happening in his personal life.
The performances from most of the new comer artists are average. No one really stands out. Music is good and suits the mood of the film. But the star of the film is most definitely the script, which builds the characters and plays with the emotions and internal conflicts. There are no over the top emotions on display, the film grows through the small tensions among the 3 friends.
Overall, the scriptwriter and director needs appreciation for coming up with a refreshing script and capturing the sentiments of many an expatriate malayalee, who always yearns to come home and follow the dreams he saw, together with his friends and family. But, seasons change.....do we?

If anyone asks me which is the movie that changed my life I will certainly say that it is KAUN. I saw this movie when i was 14. What caught my attention about this movie was the distinct and innovative approach that varma and team took.
To make a full length movie with just 3 characters for instance is something really special. Can u imagine a Hindi movie taking place completely inside a house?? and no songs or romance for that matter. The script keeps it simple and engaging till the end. The direction is truly amazing. It never keeps you boring . It entertains you and keeps one guessing...
To add on to all these excellent performance from the 3 actors - urmila was really superb...she always is in ramuji's movies , manoj was at his excellent best and sushant singh completed the perfect cast. In my opinion varma and kashyap were the real stars . It was an audacious attempt which will be remembered for a long long time.
The climax was the best part of the movie and is a stroke of genius. After seeing this movie I was so impressed that I became a fan of Ramuji from then on. The fact that so much can be done with direction and scripting in a movie impressed me the most.
I think this movie should have affected some others too. Please try the movie if u haven't
