Usthad Hotel ---- Must Feel !!!!!!!!!

Who could ever forget the visual breeze of Bridge in kerala cafe...the 20 minutes of soulful immortal visuals that Anwar Rashid had hard printed on our hearts about 3 years ago?Eversince the announcement of Usthad hotel, my expectation was for "the bridge feel" to be extended for 2 hours.....and it almost did in most parts....!Be it the opening scene where an electric bulb flashes to light the board of usthad hotel ,or the scene which establishes the ambience of usthad hotel and the beach,or when faizy falls for shahana....or when Kareemikka reveals the suspence of his first love......the movie brings in goose bumps to the viewers.....Thanks to the majestic visuals...the poetic visualisation aided with the career best bgms of Gopi sundar....and of course the perfos that match up to the plot.

Usthad hotel plots the story around Faizy(dulquer)'s coming of age......realizing what serving food is all about.In due course of his life he happens to split ways with his father and happens to reenter the life of his grandfather Kareem(thilakan).Its his uppooppa who forms the tutorial to develop Faizy as a good human being.A series of episodes come in including a sidelined romance tale.

Dulquar as Faizy puts in a show that should posiibly suggest just one thing....that he is here to stay , not just to be popped up as a great actor's son.....but to make a name for himself.Good Show!
Thilakan.....the master actor...proves it yet again....!Nithya menon had never before looked so beautiful on screen.....Siddique mamukkoya,Lena,kallumekkaya band, all puts in their skills to perfect blend.
Though the subject from Anjali meon had more potential in it to be developed as more  of a feel good entertainer,her script falters here and there at times.

Not to forget some wonderfully etched moments though.Kudos to Anwar Rashid...the best Director in Mallu town.The man mesmerizes with his skill to create poetry with visuals that you feel anyone in his frames would just be awesome.....! Wonderful cinematography....BGM by Gopi sunder is top class and so are the songs.....!

Walk in to Usthad Hotel.....Sulaimani and Usthad special Biriyani awaits you....!

Must feel movie....8/10......!
