The Malayalam film Masthishka Maranam, starring Niranj Maniyanpilla Raju and Rajisha Vijayan, and directed by Krishand, was released in theatres on February 27th. The film received mixed reactions from both audiences and critics during its theatrical run.
Despite the buzz created by the viral song Aashakal featuring Rajisha Vijayan, the film could not achieve strong box office success. It managed an average run, as reviews remained divided on its concept and execution.
Masthishka Maranam began streaming on Netflix from March 27th. Viewers who missed it in theatres are now watching it on OTT. Many are sharing their opinions on social media, bringing renewed attention to the film.
Some viewers have praised the film for its unique sci-fi and cyberpunk theme. They believe it is a bold attempt that deserved better support in theatres. Rajisha Vijayan’s performance has also received appreciation from several audiences.
However, a section of viewers feels the film may not appeal to everyone. Its dark comedy style and unconventional storytelling make it suitable mainly for a niche audience. The whacky tone has divided viewer opinions.
Others have criticised the film for its slow pace and repetitive second half. They feel that despite having a strong concept, the screenplay does not fully deliver. This has led to debates about missed potential.
With mixed responses continuing on OTT, Masthishka Maranam seems to have found its target audience online. Its performance on Netflix in the coming days will decide whether it gains wider acceptance or remains a niche favourite.
