Dear Priyan Sir,With all due respect,When you want to take an investigation movie, why do you lent some one else's Doctor Sunny Joseph? I would have rather taken one of your own police heroes (May be Unnikrishnan from Vandanam)? Doctor Sunny Joseph is here to treat patients, not to investigate some one else's murder.Also when you want the heroine to perform so much expressions, don't you think you should put a bit more effort in choosing a right lady for the role? Did you forget a process called 'Sceen Test'?I gave rating 2. One point for Mohanalal's screen presence, and one for the doore doore song. Rest all is ridiculously bad.....

What can you expect from a man who made his life by shamelessly plagiarizing other's works? He tried almost every form of copying from foreign movies to Malayalam, Malayalam to Tamil, Tamil to Hindi, Malayalam to Hindi and now he tried a new thing; Malayalam to Malayalam. Yes you read it right; he took the story from Nadiya Kollappetta Rathri (2007) and replaced the cop with doctor, Sunny Joseph Manichithrathazhu (1993) in it. Yes, Geethanjali is ready!Geethanjali is so lazily made that you would wonder how a legendary actor like Mohanlal could even think of accept such a role to make a come back of Dr. Sunny? The visuals, other performances and the music are pretty ordinary as well.Overall, it's just an another cluttered film that bites the dust. Miss.

Manichithratazhu or The Ornate Lock was one of the 90s' few hugely dramatic & immensely popular movies that it was remade into almost all Indian languages. Mohanlal over-acted in it, but was funny & gave birth to a lovable character. So did Innocent and the rest of the supporting cast. It was both funny & horrid at the same time.Come 2013, and this spin-off looks just like a gimmick to attract people who follow the cast & the setup of the 90s' hit. But, let me assure you, it is nowhere near it; not in story, not in cast performance, not in humor. The first 30 minutes are used nicely to construct a base for the story which is tremendously similar to another hit film, "Nadiya Kollapettu Rathri" which was brilliant. I won't go into details, but the story fails as some parts of Manichitratzhu are blindly sampled here, with the climax revelation scene so uncanny. Investigating a haunted house reveals a strange, predictable story about the people living in it. The cat-mouse chase begins as was previously seen last year in "Grandmaster."Mohanlal isn't funny anymore. His dialogs and actions did not only make me despise him but also descent him from my favorites lists. Siddique's is the only plausible character. Newcomer actress has her first and the last film here. Nishan was fine.I might have chuckled 3-4 times throughout the long 140-minute film, which has not a single strand of newness in it. The story is stitched from parts borrowed from other similar themed movies which reduces the overall effect. Additiong of unnecessary and annoying songs in-between, cheap use of CGI, horrible make-up and high number of useless characters makes this undeniably an example of improper filmmaking.BOTTOM LINE: Priyadarshan has lost his charm. I cannot say that for Mohanlal looking into the fact of Dhrishyam being a hit and all. But, Geethanjali is a poor show, per se.Can be watched with a typical Indian family? YES

Priyadarshan gifts his audience with a horror flick which is neither horrifying nor entertaining..! I can't even count how many horror flicks has been watched in my life.The expectation was touching the apex because of returning of Dr.Sunny well remembered through the classic Manichitrathazhu.Unfortunately this movie make no impact on me except bad impression about the writers.The movie has been adapted a lot from the Thai Horror flick Alone and "Nadiya kollappetta rathri(The Night Nadiya Was Murdered).The movie begins with introduction of a young happy couple, Anoop (Nishan Naniah) and Anjali (Keerthy Menaka), working in Mumbai, who are deeply in love and are about to get engaged.The movie tells the problem faced by them in an haunted house in Kerala.Its only an average flick and adapted from many other movies.Watch for doctor sunny and Nakulan(suresh gopi) In a beautiful cameo.Can i watch with family:Yes
