I don't know about malayali films that much... I have watched few films of prithviraj and I loved them... But this is movie not a movie but propaganda show anti Hindu with poor acting of people. Lol these kind of movie's have limited crowd.

Cannot expect malayalam movies to be clean ? Why does it always have to have a political agenda ? This is very sad to observe that conflicts sell, divisive movies make money & showing a country on fire can be acceptable ? It's a shameful content & everyone should watch it with utmost prejudice. These things disrupt peace & raise a lot of questions. Showing NDTV in the initial scenes itself was a self goal attempt.

The film tries to speak about various issues in the society about biases, dividing etc but the approach is very loud the film goes overdramatic far too often. But despite its right intent and partly interesting structure, the making is quite uneven. Much of the treatment is loud and over-dramatic, especially the court scenes in the latter half. While it meanders pointlessly in the initial campus scenes, too much is said in quite a few rushed sequences towards the end. Much of this has to do with the mystery around Prithviraj's character, who re-appears only at the interval point, after an introduction in the prologue. The script also banks on all the incessant talking that this character does, not only to convey its political ideas, but also to reveal the twists in the tale. A decent watch nonetheless.

First half was below average with some annoying melodrama and songs with absolutely no timing and mamta mohandas being portrayed as someone next to god..second half court room sequences went on for ages with some worthy questions asked but had zero resemblance with the actual court proceedings...The person who comes as judge is a total miscast and even Shammi Thilakan who has a tremendous initial hype says statements of no relevance and very little impact. Prithvi started rendering preachy dialogues rather than trying to defend his case and we wonder what was even the case under consideration... could have fooled an average movie goer with over the top melodrama and punchy dialogues but not everyone...#disappointed.

The film asks some pertinent questions and presents its politics fairly well, but the writing (which goes the over-expository route) and the generic cinematic styles employed make it a somewhat middling affair. Everything in the film is dialed to eleven, especially when it comes to lengthy monologuing. I felt the director took way too much time to make a certain character's death look like a big deal and then struggled to put the twists and backstories across with conviction. When around forty-five minutes of the film remained, I wondered how the makers were planning to change my mind about a certain opinion it presented in the first half, especially with Prithviraj's loud lawyer character going bonkers. While they managed to cover up some of the larger potholes, it wasn't the most easy drive. The narrative often feels disjointed, switching between "okay", "wow", and "meh". The character of Saba (played by a miscast Mamta), whom the film majorly revolves around, is conceived in broad strokes - virtuous, upright, and almost saintly. Suraj adds one more to his list of restrained, grey-shaded performances while Prithvi simply roars his way through the second half. The extended climax, which packs too much information about the sequel, could've been replaced with a subtle tease. But that's the fundamental issue with the film - it revels in its talkathons, its expositions, its overplays.

The movie heads in so many different directions all at the same time. It's a mish mash of different incidents that took place recently. It does not do one thing properly and fails miserably at conveying its intent.

An one sided view of events. Mostly going along with the directors political convictions. Some of the scenes are beautifully captured. It will certainly cater to a section of the population. The underlying story about the 'clash of civilzations' are told many times in recent years.
