Made In Heaven actor Sobhita Dhulipala called Manjummel Boys incredible.
“This story is an example of friendship, willpower, and persistence. And its stunning visuals and mind-blowing performances made it a blockbuster hit. It is a must-watch, and for me, it already is my favourite film of the year so far,” he added.
At the same time, the film has also been receiving immense appreciation from all quarters, with many lauding it for its technical perfection. “How on earth did the director manage to pull off those camera placements, angles, and lighting in such a complicated set? It almost feels like they shot the entire cave episode in the real Devil’s Kitchen. Mad respect to the cinematographer and Director,” one user wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

“This movie is one of the best and deserves the appreciation and recognition it has received. Well made,” another user noted. “#ManjummelBoys, even without the ‘kanmani’ song, the movie would have had the same impact on an individual. Mallus are so generous that they didn’t cry foul while we took credit for their success,” a Twitterati wrote.
In his review of the film, The Indian Express’ Anandu Suresh wrote, “Chidambaram’s survival thriller, starring Soubin Shahir and Sreenath Bhasi, can indeed be seen as a powerful tribute to the real Manjummel Boys and their determined efforts to save their dear one.”
