The CinePearl Take
Aashiq Abu’s direction keeps the narrative tight, letting the urgency of the crisis drive the pacing without resorting to melodrama. Parvathy Thiruvothu delivers a razor‑sharp performance, embodying the stoic determination of Kerala’s health workers, while Kunchako Boban provides a grounded counterpoint as a local journalist. The film’s theme of collective responsibility resonates strongly in a post‑pandemic world, making it both a timely and timeless piece.
