This movie has combined the mysticism surrounding Sufis along with mystic connection between uncle and niece who is a born into a special star according to Veda astrology. The "right and wrong of these people" are different from that of ordinary people. The uncle let the destiny take its own stride and did not stop the niece run away with her love who is a guy from Ponnani area where the Arab settlement to Malabar region happened. The movie shows how their love and life have been torn apart by the bad elements in society who use religion for their domination of the community. Thampy Antony has played his role excellently. Prakash Bare has done his part well and was able to adapt to the Malayalam accent of the ponnani region. Sharbani Mukherjee played her part well. The back ground music that is played in many parts of the movie is beautiful and soothing.

This movie which was filmed in the beautiful Kerala background is one of best films I have ever seen. There are many messages in this film which are applicable to the whole world. Progressive and genuine followers of Christ or Buddha (the first group) are overshadowed in this world by politically motivated greedy society (second group) who wants to use religion for their benefits and not to serve the genuine causes as outlined by prophets. The second group finds out every method to make the first group "the bad person/people" even though the former is striving to serve people and implement the best policy of "live and let live and also co-exist" in this world without waiting for the world after death.
