Synopsis

Narayaneente Moonnaanmakkal

Vishwanathan (Vishwan), Sethu and Bhasker (Bhaskaran) are three estranged brothers who reunite at their ancestral home in Koyilandi, as their ailing mother, Narayani, comes to the end of her life. Vishwan upholds traditional values and sees himself as the guardian of the family's legacy, harboring deep-seated resentments. Sethu, the middle brother, has remained unmarried in the family home, caring for their mother while leading a quiet and often overlooked life due to his learning disorder. Bhaskaran, the youngest, distanced himself from the family to London after marrying his girlfriend Nafeesa, a decision that caused a rift between him and his elder brother, Vishwan. As the brothers return home, old tensions resurface. Sethu, the mediator tries to ease the growing tension, urging his brothers to let go of their bitterness. The situation becomes significantly worse, when Bhaskaran's son Nikhil and Vishwan's daughter Athira gets involved in a incestuous love romantic relationship.

The family drama track of the movie is, in a way, a modern-day version of what we saw in Padmarajan’s Thinkalazhcha Nalla Divasam. The progressive and regressive elements in each character make them very real on screen. Sharan is not really trying to paint anyone black or white. Vishwanathan is easily the most regressive and old-school one in the lot, but in a scene in which he bargains with another man with an unreasonable amount for a land deal, we get to know what made him such a harsh guy who respected his father for what the father had to go through. The mutual comfort in the equation of Athira and Nikhil, the loneliness in the life of the frequently disrespected Sethu, and the equation between Bhasker and Nafeesa are all very lovely to watch.
