Lohi has always struggled with the climax of his movies. I have felt this for many of his films.

It is a nice film.You will surely like Meera Jasmin's character 'Priyamvada'.It is lot better than meesamadavans and kunnikoonans.The film having the originality.If the film was directed by another directer it could have been better.

SUPERB!!!!
The Best malayalam movie in recent years!
Some scenes, like the one when Kunchacko gets selected for IAS is so touching....it brought tears to my eyes with happiness!!!such a rare thing in movies....the background score with the violin is so haunting!!!
Meera Jasmine is malayalam cinema's future.....she's brilliant...sure to get lot of awards for the role of priyam"vada"

Meera Jasmin's acting is brilliant.
It is a good movie. But I donot rate it as excellent, when compared to Sibi-Lohi's old
movies.

I only write about the good movies so obviously this is a great movie. I liked it a lot...kinda had similarities to Nandanam as it is a about the couple fighting over everyone else and receiving their happiness. Great film with great performanes, especially Kunchacko Boban..he was absolutely great! Great music, good locales, and great script. Good job team...

Nice movie!!!. Meera Jasmin Superb. KB has shown that he can also perform well if he gets a good character role. 1 of the song was very nice which KB sings on the stage. Hats off the Lohi and the entire team.

kastooriman is certainly not better than nandanam

why do u want to compare these 2 films ?
kasthoorimaan shows rustic village life more touchingly..nandanam is a superb fantasy..dont mix these 2 films..both r 2 good films...

Kasthooriman is a very good touching film, but a close look will reveal that it is a reverse of the film "ee puzhayum kadannu.."

Kasthooriman is just an average film. It has the same old story and scenes that makes most audiences yawn and scratch their heads all the way. E.g. College function in which the hero is forced to sing a song, the cruel fellow after the heroine, heroin committing murder and going to jail, hero waiting for her...list can be extended as you like.
Also as BABU poited out, this movie reminds us of movies like Ee puzhayum kadannu, Sallapam etc.
The acting of Meera Jasmine is just average. At times it becomes so artificial - especially at imotional scenes and she is straining in dance sequences. Kunchakko Boban is better in this movie than his many other films.
Anyway, this film is better than usual "chappadachi" movies. Somebody tried to compare this to movies like Nandanam in this thread. He/She should have been loony!

Of course mj is cute.But her acting is really average. It is interesting to see that everybody just tried to praise her beauty alone.Not her acting.Strange....On the other side chackochan is simply amazing as i was fed up with his average & disappointing performances in older films.I never expected this much matured acting
from him.Acting is the reflection of even minute
expressions.Finally kb has done it.IN lots of scenes.But meera is good only in over expressive scenes like bursting out against Rajappan &
Thalla.And is very easy to do.She failed lamentingly in emortional scenes & dancing.Oh it was horrible to see her dance.So finally , though cute ,she has to go a long way.She has to realise acting is something which is entirely independant
of the external beauty & is not the one in over expressions. And congrats to the panjarakkunju for giving out a stunning performance.Now I have to believe that something is in him.Lohithadas doesn't need any other compliments as he proved his class long before.
But absolutely he is not a good director.Anyway
good job....
