Sunny and dark
rajeshr-1910216 April 2022
Kudos to the team that put this together with a largely unknown cast (to me at least) excluding Shane Nigam and Shine.. Somewhere this drama successfully evoked the sentiments of the Hindi classic 'Deewar', where two brothers and their mother struggle to find their bearings in a cruel world. Hats off to Shane Nigam whose chocolate looks would have been a bonus in Bollywood but never a plus point in Malayalam movies.. He lives the character, effortlessly switches emotions and anchors the movie, well supported by the others..

Complex family drama presented in a complex way
shibinkallikkal18 May 2022
Why is the movie so difficult to follow? Dialogues are muffled. Me and my wife (a thrissur native) was asking each other what the character said. Only memorable performance was from Shane and the actor playing his friend. The mother's emotional throwback scene felt cringey. Rest of the actors hardly performed. Felt like they just delivered their lines and left.

Super movie
Miskeen19897 March 2022
Super movie. Good song, good acting, story of the new generation, a movie that can be seen with.

A must see for everyone.

Shine Nigam would have put on a good acting look.

A True Study of Poverty
nairtejas27 April 2022
Veyil (Sunrays) is a marvellous depiction of the 'poverty is the root of all evils' adage. Narrating the teenage years of Sid (Shane Nigam), the careless of a widowed mother's two sons, the other being bright but medically insufficient, this drama takes you on a 3-hour journey to the lives of these people and their relationships between each other and with the outer world, which is often ruthless and selfish. Veyil stayed with me for its lively and heartbreaking moments, its performances, and how miserable it made me feel towards the end, also thanks to the nonchalant music. Watch it!

Good movie with good acting & music

Pretty good film with good performances, good casting. What started as a school type romance went to become an emotional rollercoaster. Exceptional high quality music.

Amazing cast, cinematography and acting
chaitujil19 April 2022
Not sure who didn't like this movie for a low rating. It's stellar performance from the cast, eye catching scenery and emotional epic. Powerful message delivery without much shouting and super powers which are common in South Indian movies.

Great performance and a good movie
vineethvijay77729 April 2022
Do not stop at first 10 - 15 mins or so .. This is truly a good movie with some great performance from Shane and others as well!

They could have done better about the overall flow of the movie and keep it but compact and consistent.

The music and background score was good too.
