Any K.G.George Sir's movie is a must watch and this is no different !!!

Verdict: Very Good Watch

A great classic with a fantastic story and performance by Raghu !!! The first half shows the life of Govindan Kutty played by Raghu (a small person) who returns to his village after many years. The authenticity of a village and its people was shown so beautifully with every frame in the first half. Anjali naidu was glamorous in her role and acted well too. The perspective of society towards a small person was depicted well in the entire movie and Raghu enacted brilliantly emoting every human feeling. He nailed in all of the scenes. Mammooty supported well in his role. The circus backdrop and the life of circus artists was shown very well. K. G. George Sir was just so brilliant in getting actor's performances and brings his golden touch to all of his films. His films are masterpieces and a great learning to the new film makers.
