    Decent mystery thriller
    The climax of the film is similar to bollywood movie khoj.

    An under-rated malayalam mystery movie. The film starts in a mysterious plot and continues to keep it at the end. Different type of story telling that we find 80's malayalam cinema. Rahman and shobhana at their young age. A worth watch malayalam movie.
