Pathemari Malayalam Movie Short Review
Its wonderful how some of your past good deeds could return and help you when its needed. In 2011, Mammootty did a great gesture to Salim Kumar and Salim Ahmed when he delayed his Bombay March 12 by a week to give their Adaminte Makan Abu a solo release. Now 4 years later in […]

I have always wondered why no writer or director in Malayalam could give Prithviraj a beautiful character like Mozhi’s Karthik. Interestingly apart from Vargam and Vasthavam, two of Prithviraj’s best characters […]

They inspire you , they let you emotionally connect with some of our […]
