Puzhu,
the
most-awaited
project
that
features
Mammootty
as
the
central
character,
has
finally
premiered
on
Sony
LIV.
The
project,
which
features
Parathy
Thiruvothu
in
a
pivotal
role,
is
helmed
by
newcomer
Ratheena.
Puzhu,
which
is
with
the
deep-rooted
societal
conditioning,
caste
differentiation,
and
many
other
relevant
problematic
aspects
of
the
society.
Mammootty,
the
leading
man
has
been
receiving
overwhelmingly
positive
reviews
for
his
performance
in
Puzhu
which
is
simply
spectacular.
The
megastar
is
also
being
applauded
for
the
bold
career
choices
he
makes,
and
his
willingness
to
constantly
rediscover
himself
even
at
the
age
of
70.
The
Ratheena
directorial,
on
the
other
hand,
is
getting
mixed
to
positive
responses.

Could
any
other
actor
have
portrayed
someone
so
*inconsiderate*
this
convincingly?
Hardly
surprising
that
there
is
no
megastar
#Mammootty
in
#PuzhuonSonyLiv.
There's
just
a
guy
who
is
aloof,
totally
detached
from
reality,
lives
in
a
bubble
of
his
own
making.

The
movie
is
a
slow-burn
execution
of
an
average
script
and
it
suffers
its
engaging
pace
in
between.
The
story
revolves
around
the
topic
of
toxic
parenting,
casteism,
and
other
politics.
Watch
it
for
the
artistic
performance
and
realistic
portrayal
with
a
rushed
final
act.
