Hridayam
2022 · Times Of India
Hridayam offers its version of a fun campus life, and a chance for those who miss it, to reminisce about their youthful days. The movie has an interesting emotional core, brought out by performances of Pranav, Darshana and others, which makes gentle tugs at the viewers' heartstrings. This is the sort of movie one would take home with a smile on the face, silly campus memories and may be, a song on the lips, if you don't care much about character evolutions.
Jana Gana Mana

Political parties have long been using police vigilantism as a tool to manipulate people's emotions and bank on them to gain votes, and it needs to be appreciated how a mainstream Malayalam movie, starring top actors, is discussing the issue in an engaging manner. Those who love a good political crime thriller inspired from real-life incidents can feast on Jana Gana Mana, that teaches you to think, question, challenge and more as a common man who consumes news at its face value.
