Anurag Kashyap reviewed 'Manjummel Boys' on Letterboxd and called it an 'extraordinary piece'. He showered praise on the filmmaking and stated that it is 'so much better that all the big budgeted filmmaking in India'. He added, "Such confidence, such impossible storytelling. I was wondering how does one even sell this idea to a producer. In Hindi they can only do remakes of such ideas. Hindi cinema really is so far left behind with three back to back brilliant Malayalam films "
Meanwhile, the makers recently announced that 'Manjummel Boys' has become the fastest Malayalam film to cross the milestone mark of Rs 100 crore. A section of our review of 'Manjummel Boys' read, "Based on a real-life story that transpired in 2006, the film is a survival drama about a man who is stuck in the never-ending Guna Caves. This is not a film that relies on heavy music or melodrama. Instead, it sticks to realism and relies heavily on human emotions."
'Manjummel Boys' features Soubin Shahir, Sreenath Bhasi, Balu Varghese, Ganapathy and Jean Paul Lal in crucial roles. Based on a true story that happened in Kodaikanal in 2006, it was released on February 22. It has been receiving rave reviews from all quarters. The film is currently running in theatres.
