The CinePearl Take
Chidambaram’s debut shines through its authentic dialogue and kinetic pacing, letting the boys’ camaraderie drive the narrative. A standout is newcomer Arjun Nair, whose understated performance as the reluctant leader grounds the film’s more flamboyant moments. The cinematography captures Manjummel’s sun‑drenched streets, reinforcing the tension between freedom and responsibility. While the third act drifts into melodrama, the film’s heart remains sincere.
