I believe ‘Notebook’ is such an underrated Malayalam film which explores teen pregnancy and female friendships and, in an unspoken way, the importance of sex education - things that aren’t widely seen in Indian movies, let alone Malayalam cinema industry.
Asif Ali's filmography is full of underratted gems. Adventures of Omanakuttan is my personal fav. Also reccomending people to watch Ee adutha kaalathu, one of the best black-comedy/ thrillers of all time.
"Guppy" is among the top of my list.. made with so much heart it was taken off from screens after the the third day of release in most of the theaters. Even though the few like me who got to watch it before it was taken out gave good word of mouth it couldn't get enough audience into halls, also Ann maria Kalippilanu released the same day did much better because of the cameo of DQ.
I'm so lucky I grew up reading novels like Mathilukal. Reading or watching stories like this, can be great deal in developing ur own character as a teenager. The movie is also stunning, Mammootty and KPSC Lalitha killed it🔥🔥 bt those who can read Malayalam, pls do read Mathilukal, it's a short read.. feel the love, embrace it. Other underrated mal movies I can remember now: * Thinkalazhcha nishchayam 2021 *Halal lovestory 2020 *Muthoon 2019 (I feel Nivin Pauly's career best performance) *Bachelor party 2012 * Rithu 2009 * Devathoothan 2000
I wanted to mention about 'dasharatham' . it surely is a classic in these days but from what I had heard when the movie had released it got a lot of negative comments because the theme of the movie was very unconventional at that time .
Most underrated 1. Hi iam tony 2. Kumbasaaram 3. Ivide 4. Apothecary 5.Nirnayakam 6. Natholi oru cheriya meenalla 7. Arike 8. Munnariyippu 9. Luka chupi 10. Utharam
You can't restrict Malayalam cinema to just 10. Even a hundred or thousand won't be enough. But I'll give you just one film that deserves to be seen in these troubled and polarized times.. Based on the novella The Valley Of The Blind.. the 1997 Mohanlal Suresh Gopi movie.. GURU..
Sir, iam trying in telugu industry..can u suggest me few m movies that are underrated malyalam movies which I can dub.malyalam movies are classic.. please help me sir
@@RaunaqMangottillbro you r wrong mathilukal is novel written by tha famous writer in Kerala Vaikom Muhammad Basheer MT presence the novel become a film
'Danny' is a movie I wanted to recommend you. Don't know how well you would connect with the film because the life story of the protagonist happens parallel to the political history of Kerala. But irrespective of that Daniel Thompson would be a man whom you would like to see once. Just give it a try. For me, the most underrated Mammootty performance. Of course any one who have seen it would rate it high. But the movie deserve more audience.
In the last one and half years I've watched so many Masterpiece Malayalam movies unintentionally that now you give me a name and basic plotline and I cannot care less about the actors or anything I'm going to definitely watch it. Malayalam Cinema is Powerful Cinema
man I am obsessed with the movie love. The twisted story just perfectly gives me everything I need, a truly dark story with perfectly describing human psyche. I have a story in my head which is inspired by this movie. I hope one day I'm able to make that fr.
Thaniyavarthanam. The best social psycho drama ever in malayalam. It's really one of the best of Mammootty. Social awareness at its peak. ❤️🔥 Lohitha das made a eye opener for society in 1987 itself.
Hey Raunaq🤚🏽 Try "Kadhavaseshan" - 2004 Starring Dileep. When people suggest Dileep's movie for comedy and relief but this movie is something else... Give it a try brother🙏🏼
Devadoothan,Guru,Guppi,Adam joan,Aadu(1),notebook,summer in Bethlehem etc and i think there are many such movies in Malayalam which actually deserved more popularity but failed in theatres.
Another under rated movie is the late 80's mammootty movie written by MT Vasudevan Nair & directed by Pavithran " Utharam". I wish this movie was released in this era as the story, the plot all are still fresh. Though investigative in nature the movie like typical MT style has a great flow but more of a poetry type which have great inner meanings if you could unravel them.
Pingami a movie by the actor director combo Mohanlal-Sathyan Anthikad seems to be a most underrated movie for me. This actor director combo is famous for their romcom feel-good movies, for the first time they tried to make a thriller which failed the box office
Very good list. Shyamaprasads Ore Kadal is a movie you should check out. After Agnisakshi and Akale he delved into this brilliant masterpiece. Let me know what you think. And to see one more film of this director here made sense. Thank you for this
Malayalam movies 9 and Trance having beautiful underrated script that blows our mind. Both movies we need explanation to understand what these writers meant to be especially the ending plot of both.
Left Right Left is the most underrated movie as it raised important questions about Communism. It was released at a time when people lost the essence of communism. Political hampering resulted in the movie being a box office flop
Hi Raunaq, Please watch 'Iyer the Great' starring Mammootty and 'Pappan Priyapetta Pappan' starring Rahman and Mohanlal. I am not getting into the genre. Watch and experience.
could you make a video to recommend indian old cult movies for foreigners who doesn't know a thing about it? I'm Brazilian and I love cult movies from around the world, I like your channel and I found it randomly looking for these Indian movies.
Purely from the perspective of how they were rated and performed at the BO, I have the following list 1. Guppy 2. Emmanuel 3. Devadoothan 4. Thaniyavarthanam 5. Athiran 6. Munnariyippu
Basheer in Mathilukal is the name of the author of the novel by the same name - the unparalleled Vaikom Muhammed Basheer aka Beypore Sultan. Much of the magic of the movie goes to the story.
Most of the movies I wanted to say have already been listed, but I didn't see "Moonamathoral" anywhere yet! That's a really good movie even though most people don't know about it..
If you think Mathilukal is good, read the original source material from Malayalams all time greatest writer, Vaikkom Muhammed Basheer. Its a very short read, but it is so wonderfully pleasent while being deeply philosophical.
Oh bruh. There are many Malayalam films that are really underrated. For example, Joju's movies are underrated- Jospeh, Madhuram...its a huge list. Coming to thrillers, Nayattu is a must watch. Even Anjam Pathira is so good. Lalettans old movies are class, even Mamookaas too. Amma ariyan is also too good, John Abhrahams..
Red rain I don't think theres another alien movie in Malayalam Not much of a top notch level,but surely a debut(maybe) into the extraterrestrials for malayalm cinema
"Swathandryam ardharatriyil ". Directed by tinu papachan. Oh man, i love this filim.Such an exciting movie. I would say, it is the all time underrated movie in malayalam cenema.
Al though "Mathilukal" is a good movie.Its a disappointment after reading the book.There is a charming beauty in the book that is missing in the movie.
as u said abt Ibilis...I would suggest ppl should watch Asif Ali's movies though he is not familiar among other language audience lyk Nivin,Fahadh r DQ...when it comes 2 mallu movies u can easily find a gud movie 2 watch... sometimes d writers, sometimes d lead actors, sometimes a small character artist also helps u 2 choose d movie...even d not so gud mallu movie also hav solid performance by d actors...tat makes u 2 watch it completely...thy r something magic for sure❤✨
Bro there is a movie called "Thaniavarthanam" which is pure gem 💎 in the carrier of mamooty but it was released in the wrong era u need to watch this movie man it will surely blow your mind please watch it and upload a review about it please 💎
Basicaly every good malayalam movie from the 80s,90s,2000s are under rated for me,for the level of content and the versatile films that were made during these periods,no industry had movies that matched mollywood, even tamil yes,except few films from tamil,most were cliche mass films,until 2000s.I just feel that people who dint waych mollywood movies from these era..anyone.. tamilian,kannadiga,north indian or even mallu himsef,is unlucky.. they just missed something so gem.
Aadu released in 2015. It was flop. But as meme culture started mushrooming this movie became popular online. Then Aadu 2 released to cash in the vibe that prequel had generated and it became a hit. Also Aadu re released in 2018.
Late to this video. Good list. 🙂 You are telling Lohi and MT as good writers. Madhilugal is Basheer's novella. The ideology and smile are all written in the book. Vaikkom Mohammed Basheer is an awesome writer in Malayalam. Lohi is not a literature writer.
