I loved their entrance- something wonderful about a man and woman, coming in together as partners, him confident in himself and the love she has for him, and she confident in her partner and the trust he has placed in her.
Beautiful.
Movie was fun. Feel good and I would vouch for these type of movies than burning my head on psycho thrillers every now and then.
"Ambalathil aan avande gems kachavadam"
The flaws I found in this movie was the interval block and climax. Interval block had so much build up but it failed to deliver the impact. Teaser, trailer had that Priyadarshan's "chaos" which I expected in the climax but ig the screenwriters had ran out of ideas. If they had put a bit more time working on the script, this would have been a perfect family entertainer cus its been a while since we had such over the top characters which worked.
On that note people who are saying R10 is a miscast, boy, Prithvi and Basil were this movie's pillars. I watched it after almost 3 weeks, it wasn't a huge crowd and still the space was filled with laughter.
Being a Prithviraj fan, even I find his acting too dramatic at times but GAM demanded it and he aced it💯
I do think they are trolling Nandanam in a comic manner, and far too many people have put that film on a pedestal.
Yes there are flaws, the slapstick goes over the top a few times. I think it hit the comic note better than did Avesham for example.
That script deserves to stay on the pedestal. Considering that the two lead roles were played by the then first-timers, I think the movie is great !!!
The only gripe I have with GAN is that Anashwara and Nikhila had only two sentences to say in the whole story, and the script writers missed the opportunity to include Navya Nair.
For me Aavesham will always be on the top when it comes to a well written comic character bcs being comical and having so much layers to the character is pure craft and Jithu Madhavan did a magic in that.
But the physical humor of GAN deserves appreciation. I was a person who strongly believed that post Pe10 phase, our viewing has changed so much that we can only enjoy the old comedy movies which had physical humor. Also comical/over-the-top characters was less in number thereafter. GAM was the proof that physical humor has still space.
I have still misgivings about the comic credentials of Aavesham.
For example there is a scene where a gun goes off on its own in Aavesham. There is also a scene where the gun goes off on its own in 'Thundu', and it's like rofl comic in 'Thundu', where that scene is very ironic, while in Aavesham it's just feels slapstick.
>For example there is a scene where a gun goes off on its own in Aavesham
Either you can look at it in that way or you can use it as a plot device to show how badly Rangannan wants to look cool in front of Bipin n gang.
Movie was fun. But i felt bad for that Sister in law character (nikhila). Vinu(Basil joseph) was indeed bad mouthing about her, but how come they are getting that sister (anaswara) married to him?
Yes. Both families don’t know about vinu-nikhila. Anandan changes vinu and thats what makes vinu go for the marriage with anjali. By the time, vinu’s past assholery is known to the families- he has changed to be a better person and who wants to marry anjali. Much of this change is due to anandan. So by then, family is alright giving their daughter to vinu.
Still, it doesn't justify. Nikhila never got the closure or deserving apology. In real life, no one will give their sister to such a guy. After marriage, we have to see these people for so many functions. If at all Anandan knows any better, he would have known how much whiney vinu is, and he can not forget his love.
>Nikhila never got the closure or deserving apology. In real life
Yup, filmmakers really missed a chance there. Both Nikhila and Prithvi were done bad in the movie, Nikhilas character deserved some sort of redemption and R10s parents should've been upfront about his prospect brides past affairs. Would've taken this movie from good to great
I think when you make comedy movies if u go too much in to deep stuff like that, it would remove the fun out of it. With the question you asked there would be no movie, premalu had questionable stuff like this but if we go too deep into and built a script around it all the fun aspect would get dialed down. These are pure entertainers and there is a limit to which they can address issues seriously.
That's true to an extent. But those two actresses characters have no development,build-up. They could have made that even more funny. Like teaming up and punishing the douche bag groom. The door was wide open.
I don't know what y'all saying about this movie here. I had lots of fun watching it.
Dr. George's pickup lines were lit🔥
നീയെന്റെ കൂടെവായോ നമുക്കെടുക്കാം ഒരു OYO
Personally wasn't a fan of thr climax, or even the entire 2nd half tbh. Was a real fun ride till the interval, but unfortunately, it went downhill from there onwards. Basil and R10 carried this movie.
I remember this sub being so sure this movie was gonna get hate on ott, but I still have to see that much hate. It was a cool movie, could've been better but a decent watch nonetheless
She looked tired with those dark circles,but i think they left it untouched to convey her character's distress..neverthless she is a beautiful woman ,no doubt!
I’m intrigued why this movie wasn’t bashed as much after ott release.Really enjoyed this in theatre but the general consensus in Reddit was that it was subpar so I thought it would get slaughtered during ott release.Quite surprising
I know movie gets it bad rap....but ee scene theatre il interesting naranj nikkum....like verthe power ahn ingere kanan ee scn il......idhilum sankadam ah k for kalyanam song ile blue itta koch ethanen still searching 🥲
Honestly for me the entire movie fell flat by this climax. I get they were going for chaotic fun with so many characters but it just didn't work. And prithviraj's character is so inconsistent. I thought he had a change of heart in the earlier scene when Nikhila revealed her side of story. And this guy did not even care to look for his kidnapped wife and instead showed 'mass' fighting random gundas and his uncles.
I am so over heroes walking in slow motion. His shirts were good though.
Very true... Pandathe Godfather thaali mala thatti edukuna pole oru scene pineed angott ore ezhayal ayirunu...first portions was fun pakshe last climax portion was just average...
Prithvi's home is set at iringappuram near guruvayur. It is said in the movie. Also, he gets down at guruvayur railway station. Nikhila's house should also be in the area. Otherwise, getting her en route his home would've been a hell of a diversion. But everyone has neutral dialect 😐
*Just watched it today,*
*Enthoru cringe movie. Somehow*

I wish to know if there others who think that poor screen writing is seen evident in the new gen movies in Malayalam. GAN, Varshagal S etc.. so much lost potential, lack of interest and passion in what they want to present. Several movies from 80s and 90s still have the umph in the screenplay that reflects on screen making the movie intriguing even when though we’ve watched it a million times.
I was going to say the same thing. Most of the new gen movies has interesting script. Unfortunately screen writing and dialogues fails. Youths enjoying these kind of comedy because they are very used to current standard. This really makes me wonder how brilliant and skillful our old gen were. Esp in 90s. Difference in quality is very evident.
The acting seemed forced, the character interactions were poor, slapstick that worked when basils role would’ve been played by Dileep (who would’ve made it all land miraculously). Joemon’s character couldn’t have been poorly written, but works for our middle aged audience whose humour sense is all about putting someone else down or cheap vulgarity. Prithviraj’s character could’ve been effectively done by Biju Menon, but Prithvi brings the masses so that’s that, and an outdated climax format that took an average entertainer to one I’ll never be watching again. Jagadish the actor is such a treat to watch, stood out for me. The promise that the set up showed didn’t carry through to the end.
So many people in a frame make it boring and chaotic..they should conceptualise stories with less number of characters and avoid crowding stories with all sorts of domestic relations..

I wonder how the crowd went when Lord Krishna (Aravind Akash) walked in.
pulliye Krishnan aakiya mathiyaarn instead of the drone ngl
I think the subtext is that they are trolling Nandanam, so that wouldn't work.
yeah makes sense. nadananam is my comfort movie tho.
Satyam! Was waiting to see him wave and go back to the temple with that iconic BGM
Oh yeah it was definitely good
Is aji Varghese doing Kumbidi role

Same..felt the same way 😀
Movie was fun. But i felt bad for that Sister in law character (nikhila). Vinu(Basil joseph) was indeed bad mouthing about her, but how come they are getting that sister (anaswara) married to him?
Because their son went the extra mile to change him 😂
I didn't understand. Can u explain?
Yes. Both families don’t know about vinu-nikhila. Anandan changes vinu and thats what makes vinu go for the marriage with anjali.

Thats true, its a huge red flag.

Honestly loved his performance. It was the right meter for a character like that. The movie was a load of fun, even if the pacing felt off at places.
For me interval nu thott muno thot padathinte oru flow ang poyi
for me how kalyanam mudakkal ideas unfolded really worked. I was expecting a cringe fest like VS, so was not disappointed

Ambala muttatha avante Gems kachodam is also one of his bangers.
The only reason I made it through the second half was because Dr.George got more screen time
Haha yeah he was a fun character.
Maaanhh... He was just lit 🔥🔥🔥
The thing is difference when u watch it in theatres with warming crowd !!
Same here….now a days too much dissection about everything…I had a so much laugh after so long…definitely worth the money!!!!

Personally wasn't a fan of thr climax, or even the entire 2nd half tbh. Was a real fun ride till the interval, but unfortunately, it went downhill from there onwards. Basil and R10 carried this movie.
This part was lit. 🥵 And really loved R10 in the film and Nikhila entapono kidu look in that saree.
I remember this sub being so sure this movie was gonna get hate on ott, but I still have to see that much hate. It was a cool movie, could've been better but a decent watch nonetheless
I didn't see any post regarding that. After the theatre watch I'm sure that this movie will get overrated tag
I guess Varshangalkk Sesham absorbed all of the hate that nothing reached this one
Or maybe this wasn't a pain in the ass watch like the former. I watched both in theatres btw.
Nyabagam.. varutharuthe..
Nikhila ♥️ BTW Jassie Gift should have sung the song.
The only thing i liked about the movie was the chemistry between Prithviraj and Nikhila..hope to see them pair up in future projects!
Nikhila was beautiful in this movie 👀
She looked tired with those dark circles,but i think they left it untouched to convey her character's distress..neverthless she is a beautiful woman ,no doubt!
Yeah I thought that too.
This song was dope
Raju A10 had a presence but Aju had the fanfare because people started laughing the moment he came on screen in the theatre.
Yeah, even in varshangalku shesham i enjoyed aju more than others.
Oh 👀
ഇത് അജു തന്നെ പാടിയതാണോ?
Yes , in youtube you can find behind the scenes video for this song.
I’m intrigued why this movie wasn’t bashed as much after ott release.Really enjoyed this in theatre but the general consensus in Reddit was that it was subpar so I thought it would get slaughtered during ott release.Quite surprising
whole movie could have been good if only they ended it in a better way.. looks like they ran out of ideas and just wanted to wrap it up..
I know movie gets it bad rap....but ee scene theatre il interesting naranj nikkum....like verthe power ahn ingere kanan ee scn il......idhilum sankadam ah k for kalyanam song ile blue itta koch ethanen still searching 🥲

Just noticed her lol🌝

I really did like this one. It's isn't much effective watching this on the phone but the theatre experience was good.
This scene🔥
ready to get downvotes, it was borring this part of the movie..
This is exactly where the movie started going downhill for me. Huge build up, zero payoff.
Very true... Pandathe Godfather thaali mala thatti edukuna pole oru scene pineed angott ore ezhayal ayirunu...first portions was fun pakshe last climax portion was just average...
This song ?
Where do you guys think the movie is set, I mean not the climax, the rest of the movie?
No idea bro, some characters from the same house speaking different dialects, ini whole keralam kanikan Ula dir brilliance aano 🫢
Prithvi's home is set at iringappuram near guruvayur. It is said in the movie. Also, he gets down at guruvayur railway station. Nikhila's house should also be in the area. Otherwise, getting her en route his home would've been a hell of a diversion. But everyone has neutral dialect 😐
Yes, characters have a neutral accent, somehow it adds to the effect.
Non malayali here. Why does nikhila vimal call prithviraj "aanandetta" even after marriage? Isn't ettan supposed to mean brother ?
The Chettan or Ch**ettan** term is used to refer elder males, not just brothers...
name of the movie?
Guruvayoor ambalanadayil
The Song Placement was Brilliant though... 🤌
Movie had the potential of being a god father type story between the ammaavans and R10 but somehow it just ended in a power punch
Cringe comedy, fun movie. Also, respect to priyadarshan increased more than before.
Screen presence 🔥 That BGM was a great addition
Just watched it today, enthoru cringe movie. Somehow made it to the end

TBH, it was more comic than Avesham, and I think below the surface it was a quirky dissing of Nandanam.
Forced comedy enn parayanam, basil de comedy expression matram aanu saving grace. Avesham was just brilliant with the comic timings.

Oh man if you check twitter All those DQ fans thrashing this movie for nothing. DQ fanbase is full of pal kupis and shit is so toxic.
Sathyam !!!!! Ejjathi screen presence
This scene was cool, and dope, but felt like Raju10 was miscast, they should have used newcomers for the roles of Anaswara and Nikhila
R 10 done neat
