    Way ahead of its time
    I had watched this movie once in my childhood a and had totally forgot about it. But the train accident scene and later the plastic toy boat floating in the water; that scene was stuck in my mind for so many years. Very recently I came across this movie in YouTube and I was shocked that the scene playing in mind was from this movie. It had such a great impact.

    I was mindblowned by the visuals, editings and the cinematography. It was way to ahead of its time for Malayalam cinema.

    Although it's a classic, I really wish someone should remake it.

    With the technology available today and the present brilliant talents in the Malayalam industry, it would not go wrong.
