      Good movie, value for money

      A Story of current political concepts, really heart touching and a clear cut story of Indian politics facing today. Good movie, good concepts I really enjoyed the story.

      Bold Movie, in the face of far right

      Performances and execution were on point. First was moving slowly but comical treatment made it moving. Second half was more serious. Gokul you did a great job! A good satire.

      hell of a Whistleblower story!

      This movie was supposed to be released 3 yrs ago. Even though its wasnt outdated in stayed relevant to india's socio-political climate. Movie doesn't approach things very hard hitting, yet it takes a sarcastic tone in first half and later moves to dark thriller kinda mood. Climax was satisfying and i cant believe the lead of this film actually belongs to a right wing party family. Great story and neat making, art, edit was mediocre yet the pace was superb. Great attempt. Another different Malayalam cinema.

      Different and daring

      This movie is different in many aspects imo. I've been into skill industry as a tutor for a while. I had no idea that movie is based on soft skill development. Yes everything they've said through the film is true. The whole project has been manipulated and the advantages are for the middleman, not for the needy candidates. From mobilization to placement there's a huge racket operating to de-channel the funds to the pockets of agencies, center administers, politicians and officials. Director, The team behind this movie deserves genuine appreciation for the research and conviction they did. Brilliant film.

      SRM.

      Fresh!

      Nice concept. Worked for the most parts. A subject is relevant to the current political situation. Cinematography and editing cud have beem better. Gokul effortlessly carried the character throughout. Dhyan is just a cameo like character in film.
