Irupathiyonnam Noottandu movie review highlights: Heroine steals the show, in the first half

Pranav Mohanlal's '

Irupathiyonnam Noottandu

' has hit the screens today and the film, set in Goa, lacks the clarity
and tension of its director

Arun Gopi

's first film, '

Ramleela

,' which made it the hit movie that it was.

At the intermission, the film feels a bit haphazard. There is a money issue that Appu's (Pranav) father Baba (Manoj K Jayan) is involved in over some underworld contract work. And Baba wants

Appu

to do one job which will allow them to tide over their money problems. The heroine Zaya David makes an entry as a fun loving tourist in the first half and the romantic track of the film also begins with it. At the interval break, the movie offers a twist, which leaves you breathless wondering how the future events will unravel.

Though it is expected to be Pranav's movie, newcomer Racheal aka Zaya steals the show so far with her bold character. What else is in store for the viewers in the second half? Watch this space
