Beauty is the word for this movie.. Best Malayalam movie of 2017!
24 December 2017
I'm a avid follower of Malayalam film industry, I make sure I do my research before going into the cinema but then came Mayaanadhi I didn't knew anything about the plot as it was keep as a secret by movie team but still I went for this movie as after a very long time I was excited about a movie release, movie's music and trailer has played an important role in building by excitement

Narration is non- linear, all actors have done justice to their roles stand out being Tovino, Aishwarya, Lijo Jose, Leona and Soubin Shahir with a brilliant cameo (impressed they way Soubin character played without single dialogue but powerful cameo), if dark movies showing realities is your cup of tea, please don't think just go for it. If you are more into masala movies you may not understand or enjoy this movie, this is a pure director movie Aashiq Abu had full control over this movie movie has his stamp all over it and climax is spine chilling, Aashiq has made Mathen immortal with such brilliant climax, another highlight is the shooting locales and cinematography, The Panoramic Gateway, Kochi Metro, Streets of Kochi and Mc Donalds beautifully shown and wisely utilized, Sarcasm, satire and black comedy is used to maintain some lighter moments in tense situations

Will definitely watch this movie again if given opportunity, Thank you Aashiq for giving this masterpiece, I'm listening its music on loop Rex Vijayan another plus of this movie. Still the climax haunts movie hope there is a good sequel someday
