Delightful
nairtejas13 July 2023
It's rare for a film these days to have its audience want more after it has ended. Thrishanku (In Dilemma) made me want more once it ended, but I'm not sure if it was due to an abrupt climax. In the film, a couple is trying to elope but its plan is disturbed by an event at the guy's house. It then turns into a road movie and that's where all the fun is. As a sucker for road movies, I loved every bit of what happens as the characters take to the road from a town in Kerala to Mangalore. It's an easy, breezy watch and perfect to have on as a late-night viewing with friends and family. And if you have your partner beside you, it'll be fantastic. 7 stars.

Not a good one not bad either.

A happy ending funny movie with some fun elements portrayed by Nandu and Suresh Krishna. No special performance from Arjun Asokan and Anna Ben.

The film revolves around the love story of two couples, which turns into something dramatic. Unfortunately, Netflix's recent Malayalam movie releases have been lackluster, and this film falls into that category. Nevertheless, if you're looking to watch a movie on Netflix without spending money at the theater, then this movie is a decent option. It provides a typical Malayalam movie experience with a few amusing moments, making it suitable for passing the time. Just keep your expectations in check and enjoy it for what it is.

Pure comic actors could have perfected this film
ngandacinema28 June 2023
Such a fascinating plot to see two couples eloping on the same day😆 Thrishanku was a great plot that could have been perfect if only pure comic actors were cast to elevate the adventurous experience

DELICIOUS

-We enjoyed the film's innovative concept, there was no way to tell the end from the beginning. The story had a great fusion of old school (Nandhu, Suresh Krishna) and new school (Anna Ben, Arjun Ashokan)

As always Anna Ben played her typecast brave role and Arjun Arshokan was the timid man

-It was symbolic that Megha, Sethu, and the uncles went looking for Sumi dressed in traditional outfits, then later switched to modern clothing. This reflecting the need for the old school to adapt to the times👊

-Despite their ruined plan, Sethu and Megha were still determined to act responsibly and support each other which was great to see

BLAND

-The movie could have tremendously benefited from pure comedy immersed in the dialogues, acting, and characters. The lines were mostly cliché and there were no exciting characters in the plot.

Nandhu and Suresh Krishna were forcing the jokes whereas Anna Ben and Arjun Ashokan sustained the same facial expressions from start to finish.

There are natural comedians who could have perfected this movie by bringing their flavor on board, e.g. Soubin Shahir, Jaffar Idukki, Grace Antony

-It's always a bummer when there are too many coincidences in the scenario with several characters happening to be in the same location at the same time...

Pathetic Movie
ajithcherian-4274412 July 2023
The movie plot is simple and pathetic.

Here the director conveys the idea that eloping with a hindu boy is good and eloping with a Christian boy is not.

Movie is portraying Christian boy as an irresponsible and unorganized person and on the other hand the hindu boy is portrayed as a hero and caring person.

This can mislead young girls in the name of caste and creed.

It's better for the director to caste it in a right way. Eloping is not a new content in malayalam movies and it's not compulsory to make it an intercaste one.

Utmost care needs to be taken when addressing such topics.

Regards.
