Kettiyolaanu Ente Malakha – Verdict

Kettiyolaanu Ente Malakha comes with a message. But its relevance in 2019 is debatable. If it is viewed through the female perspective it makes more sense. But it was really absurd to digest some scenes.

A very lagging first half and a very live second half might be the main reason the film to gather so much positive reviews from the public.

In a way the ‘message factor’ of the film can be considered as a message for women to be careful in choosing your life partner, especially if he seems way too innocent. Keeping the pros and cons of the plot aside, the film is technically very good.
