A very good attempt at a proper sci-fi satire rooted in Kerala. The dystopian United States of Kerala with the overgrown vegetation over the buildings was set up pretty nicely. All the Malayalam pop culture references were so fun to watch, and the updates given to some were definitely the most laugh-out-loud moments. Gokul Suresh's dialogues referencing his father were also really great. But it meant that this was primarily for the 90s kids. If the comedic aspect of Gokul Suresh's character was reduced, I would've painfully felt like relating to that character, but I don't want to that much, lol. The use of traditional murals to playfully convey some ideas and the ending twist etc made its satiric approach work really great. The insistence on rituals and their powers at that point, the lies, the murals etc can be read together as why our society is like this today. The visual effects were great for what it is, but the extensive use of AI images is a turn-off for me. Even in music, there was a very derivative quality to it that I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be references or not.
