Kurup,

#Kurup
movie
is
a
class
one,
Don't
expect
any
massive
dialogues
or
mass
scene,
Just
a
pure
story
that
addresses
the
Fugitive
wanted
from
1984..
#KURUP
[4/5]:
A
well
made
hide
&
seek
entertainer.
The
movie
more
focus
on
what
you
don't
know
about
Mr.
Kurup.
Probably
70%
fictional
&
30%
Real.
Loved
the
treatment
of
the
plot.
@dulQuer

#ShineTomChacko

stunning.
Quality
film

Screenplay
could
have
improved.
