Delicious
—The story was quite fascinating, having an overly anxious uncle and a reluctant bride working at odds with each other.
We were pleasantly entertained throughout the film and also fooled! As always having a big cast kept the show going
—UGJ sent a soft warning on honoring people’s choices in marriage or else…🤐
—Arun Vaiga, the director, created a nice ambiance of the wedding venue; the guests and neighbors gave off celebration vibes, we were not bored at all
—The supporting cast did a superb job, they were the ones spicing up the movie more than the lead actors.
A special shout out to Johny Antony (playing the social-media-addicted NRI relative), Jaffar Idukki (playing the rumor-spreading “relative”), and the picky photographers
Bland
—Saiju Kurup (playing Jayan) had a repetitive facial expression that became tedious to watch
—Most characters were designed in a typical way: there’s always the unusual/nosy neighbors, a relative who acts weirdly, and the gossiping wives busy with their household duties. Would have been more intriguing to see some originality
